Minnesota State Convention was rigged

And still people want to put there vote where it will not hurt the GOP and McCain, well at least they are really pissing off all these GOP people that might have voted for the GOP.
Not anymore.

the gop doesn't care if Mccain wins, or loses, this whole election process was setup to make Obama and Clinton look like moderate angels. despite them constantly voting for more war funding which the majority of people are oblivious to. There is only one party called the "war party", and their only job is to squash the opposition to their agenda.
 
Down in GA we had a resolution where it was OBVIOUS that the nays had won, but apparently the "chairman" heard otherwise...Talk about rigged.

Always call for a division of the assembly at this point. By parliamentary procedure, they can do nothing to deny this. Doesn't even need a second, and you can interrupt a speaker and do not need recognition.

Count all votes yourselves as well!
 
At what point do we decide to vote for OBAMA in protest of the way the GOP treats it's members? I've voted Republican most of my life and I'm really beginning to think I'll never vote for another Republican again. This sort of shit really angers me to no end.

After writing something like the above I start thinking about what we can accomplish in two years or four years if we continue to develop the grassroots of the Revolution. Perhaps there is something we can do in due time.

Oh, and by the way, "good luck McCain, I hope you get at least 30% of the vote so it's not a total asswhipping, you fucker."

Voting for Obama is voting for the war party, zbigniew brzezinski is his advisor, that is all you really need to know and understand, and get it through your skull, it is Ron Paul Vs. Establishment/War Party

No, that is just conspiratorial. They just realize they are screwed if they allow RP in.

Think about it; their pride and positions are threatened if they let Paul in. Then, it is tantamount to admitting they haven't been living up to their name. They risk upsetting the media. No, it has always been necessary to take it over.

Instead, they feel like the nomination was already decided, b/c mccain managed to compete and romney then surrendered early on. Of course it would be a fight with mccain, but romney surrendered so he could try to win later.

Well, I would vote third party instead of Obama. However, if you must vote for establishment, vote Obama. At least then you are doing the key: STOP MCCAIN!

Already, the Republicans are slated to lose congress. They believe that at this point the only way to maintain the republicans is to get mccain in the white house. So, conversely, if the republicans lose the white house, they have no power base.

Enter the RPR's. If somehow McCain loses, and Repubs mostly lose congress, the party will be more vulnerable than it was when the gang of 11 began back last year with the new presidential cycle. Our ideology can win! And WE will be in the system.

We have to pick our foes one at a time. Beat the neo-cons before you beat the socialists.
 
Here is a blogger from Minnesota that was on the slate and was anointed as a delegate. Crowing about how he is so humbled and honered to have been "elected" as a delegate.

http://www.minnesotademocratsexposed.com/

Here is what I wrote him:


Hey there. Good job on getting on the ballot for Nat delegate. Exposing democrats is good and it sure worked for you. Good payoff for all your hard work.
Well as a former Minnesotan and fan of Ron Paul I am somewhat shocked as to how you hacks decided to change the rules and not have the guts to allow anyone who wanted to run for National delegate.

Maybe I am wrong but I was active for many years when I was younger and more foolish and idealistic and was a dfler and I simply can't ever remember a state or district convention where we did not allow anyone who wanted to run to be able to do so.

I guess you folks are just so worried about not being able to deliver for Juan McCain that you had to go ahead and make it impossible to have a fair and honest process.

Oh well that is the way it goes but if I were you personally I would not be so proud of your accomplishment today as in reality you were not "Elected" by popular vote since you really had no competition.

I mean face up to facts. You got "anointed" due to your blog and that is it.
Sure I appreciate your work in exposing democrats and more power to you.

But when you gain this position by fixing the rules and violating any sense of decency then I think it is a shallow victory and not one I would be very proud of.

But of course you don't see my point.

No problem we got some delegates for RP in Minnesota and that you can not change.

See you in September.


Nice letter, what I've been preaching for the last 6 months is really opposite your mentality. Everyone of you RP supporters should have become friends with this moron long ago, even write a side blog with his, if you used some smart politicking, some stealth, some cunning, maybe you would too be writing a blog entry of how honoured you are to have been elected as a delegate, of course only waiting for your opportunity to stick it to the scum. Knowing the game is rigged, if you intend to change the outcome of the game you too must also be involved in rigging the game

No, it is reality, and you are quite foolishly blind to not see it.
 
I am not blind.

I know many Ron Paul Republicans believe there is a great willful cooperation between Democrats and Republicans. I believe it is a more incidental relationship producing the Republicrats, not so much a secret hush meeting between two great forces snickering about how screwed America is, but more of because there are only two preponderant forces in politics both can independently brush off a threat to each with relative ease.

However, I respect your opinion. Either way it truly is, the same result is produced: continued monopoly of the political system. Either way, the solution is the same: break the monopoly from within. Both parties are top-down organizations, which means the top is inherently a minority. So, bringing the American people's voice into the mix is key. To do that, the stranglehold must be broken.

There is no point. Paul is our man and we need to vote for him. I see what you are saying though, but dont give in, thats what they want. Vote PAUL.
 
I was a delegate supporting Ron Paul in Minnesota at the local and county levels. I am sick of the back room deals and the unfairness. I am writing in Ron Paul's name on the ballot in November. If this leads to a McCain loss- great! If I couldn't write in his name (we DO have write ins here), I would vote Libertarian or Constitution party. I think the Republican party NEEDS an overwhelming loss before it is willing to listen and make changes. We must continue to work for change and spread the truth!
 
Can you write in a name on an electronic voting machine?

Where I live in Minnesota we use paper ballots that we mark on and can write in a name. Hopefully, that situation is still in place for this year's election! I don't know if it is possible with electronic machines- if not, that's when I would vote third party.

As far as I know, write-ins in MN have to be registered as write-ins, and that for us to vote for Ron Paul, we would have to write in "Ronald Ernest Paul" on the ballot. While, my original plan was to have a write in, I think the RP movement will move towards the libertarian party candidate and therefore we should all unify and vote for Bob Barr.
 
There may well be collusion between parties if the info I was given was correct.
A supporter told me that mccain had coauthored 86 bills with clinton and obama last year. I have not had time to verify this information, so take it with a grain of salt.

If true, that would make him even worse than I thought.

And that's really hard to do.
