Mitt Romney is going to be invalidated as nominee of the Republican party! GTFIH

[politics]

Another thing, the rule 11 is not just something that is there for any reason.
The hole existence of this rule, is because there are some important principles that the Republican Party has, and need to protect, just read the Preamble of the Rules of the
Rep. Party
"PREAMBLE- BE IT RESOLVED, That the Republican Party is the party of the open door. Ours is the party of liberty, the party of equality, of opportunity for all,
and favoritism for none."

Well that whole thing has been shot in the ass hasn't it?

Ron Paul Campaign Statement Concerning RNC Rule 11


“Chairman Priebus has always treated Dr. Paul and our team with respect, and we appreciate his leadership.” – Jesse Benton

LAKE JACKSON, Texas – Responding to complaints that the Republican National Committee has violated Rule 11 by setting up RNC Victory Operations while Dr. Paul still seeks the nomination, the Ron Paul 2012 Presidential campaign issued the following statement.

Below please find comments from National Campaign Chairman Jesse Benton:

“In April, the RNC asked our campaign for our blessing to begin assembling the Victory organization Republicans will require to guarantee a win in the fall. Building such an operation is no small undertaking, and our Party needed to build in a few months what the incumbent president has been building for four years.

“The RNC offered to set up a joint fundraising committee with the Paul campaign and were very clear that if Dr. Paul became the nominee, the Victory Operation would be behind him 100 percent. They also were clear that they would hold off if our campaign objected. I gave my full consent for the RNC to move forward.

“Chairman Priebus has always treated Dr. Paul and our team with respect, and we appreciate his leadership. He has been an outstanding chairman and has our full confidence.”

If this is true then we should have no problems in Tampa.

Wow, 15,175 views of this thread ...in only 3 days. Something must be touching a nerve here...

Maybe Mitt is about to announce that he's giving up on the GOP due to low delegate counts and may
run as a 3rd party candidate! Since the MSM seems to like him, there's even a tiny chance he'll win.

Ron Paul is pulling ahead as a result of this thread! Thousands of rule-following activists are
now becoming involved and getting elected. They are determined to save the GOP from
total its own self-corruption so America can be saved. Thank you Ron Paul and your Paulbot army.

 

[floridasun1983]

I don't have an opinion one way or another, I was just reposting what the campaign said (its on their press release page) in response to all this.

 

[KevinYeaux]

Agreed. Can't believe anyone here is taking this seriously at all.

1) It's never going to work
2) The more we talk about it the more desperate we seem
3) Even if we worked we'd be disrespected for winning in such a shitty way

+1

Talk about Romney "being disqualified" is ridiculous.

good thing I made this thread huh?

 

[randpaul2016]

any update on this?

 

[Dianne]

Let's hope ... I personally, wouldn't allow Romney or Obama to clean my house ... I would be terrified for either of those "things" , to have access to any of my personal belongings.

 

[SimplyAmazed]

Romney needs to be prosecuted!

Rule number 11 ( which can be found on page 13 here http://www.gop.com/images/legal/2008_RULES_Adopted.pdf )\
States:

"(a)
The Republican National Committee shall
not, without the prior written and filed approval of all
members of the Republican National Committee from
the state involved, contribute money or in-kind aid to
any candidate for any public or party office except the
nominee of the Republican Party or a candidate who is
unopposed in the Republican primary after the filing
deadline for that office."

But what everyone seems to be overlooking and is the most important part of the law is under part (b).

"(b)
... No person nominated in violation of
this rule shall be recognized by the Republican National
Committee as the nominee of the Republican Party
from that state."

Meaning any state where Romney and the RNC have worked together, without the written and filed prior approval of ALL GOP State Committee members of that state, IS INVALID. He cannot be recognized by the RNC as the nominee of those states.


===============================================

After reading over this again several times I am certain that the final sentence includes the entire Rule, not just clause (b) meaning it's the punishment for the violation of the entire rule. to Summarize.

The RNC can't

contribute money or in-kind aid to any
candidate for any public or party office

Unless it has-

prior written and filed approval of all members of the
Republican National Committee from the state involved

Exceptions include:

the nominee of the Republican Party,

(NOT ROMNEY)

a candidate who is unopposed in the Republican primary,

(NOT ROMNEY)

Also,

"The RNC will not recognize any state GOP bylaws that allow,

persons who have participated or are participating in
the selection of any nominee of a party
other than the Republican Party

RESOLVED:

No person nominated in violation of this rule shall be recognized
by the Republican National Committee as the nominee
of the Republican Party from that state."

===================================================================

Proof at romney's website at the bottom here:https://www.mittromney.com/donate

Or Screenshot if they try to hide it:

As much as I'd LOVE to agree with you, the key words here are:

No person nominated in violation of
this rule shall be recognized by the Republican National
Committee as the nominee of the Republican Party
from that state.

IF (and that's a BIG if ) rule 11 is actually in violation, the worst that would happen is Idaho, Massachusetts, Oklahoma and Vermont can't nominate Mitt Romney as their candidate from the floor at the RNC. This essentially only takes 92 delegates away from Mitt. It DOES NOT invalidate him from the party as a whole.

So after this rule breaking occured Ron Paul just stops active campaigning? hmmmm
