Every time they say NO CAMERA'S, They cheat...And also remember, the MSM can omit things out of the footage from the RNC, and we know they will. any idea's?.

The RNC has banned video cameras ensuring that the only videos released are ones that the GOP approves. Ron Paul has a plurality in 7 states. The GOP is replacing Paul delegates with Mitt Romney delegates so he will have less than 5; 5 being the magic number for Ron Paul to be nominated at the Republican National Convention in Tampa Florida on August 27-30. The GOP fears Ron Paul being nominated at the convention. To stop this from happening the GOP will violate the rules; just like they did in St. Charles county.

Well, an iphone is not considered a camcorder. a point and shoot camera is likely not considered a camcorder, even if it is a camcorder. Point and shoot is one without detachable lens. They mention a "large camera with lens" - they're referring to a dslr there. What I think their concern is is a space issue, a size issue. I'm not sure about that though. I can say that a $300 point and shoot camera does roughly the same job as a camcorder. I have one, a point and shoot camera, that would take great video and would be allowed. last years model sony hx9v. a lot of them do roughly the same job. the "travel zoom" category. I got about 4 hours of video each day at the maine convention. They certainly are banning a lot of tricks. but not all. They are very worried we're gonna build a set in there.
 
Just a suggestion from someone who can't go, for what it's worth. A coordinated effort with 4-6 individuals using the items listed above by parocks at strategic times and locations throughout the convention could quite possibly blow whatever nonsense they pull up in their faces.

They can do more than that "by law":

In February 2003, a Florida Court of Appeals unanimously agreed with an assertion by FOX News that there is no rule against distorting or falsifying the news in the United States.

Back in December of 1996, Jane Akre and her husband, Steve Wilson, were hired by FOX as a part of the Fox “Investigators” team at WTVT in Tampa Bay, Florida. In 1997 the team began work on a story about bovine growth hormone (BGH), a controversial substance manufactured by Monsanto Corporation. The couple produced a four-part series revealing that there were many health risks related to BGH and that Florida supermarket chains did little to avoid selling milk from cows treated with the hormone, despite assuring customers otherwise.

According to Akre and Wilson, the station was initially very excited about the series. But within a week, Fox executives and their attorneys wanted the reporters to use statements from Monsanto representatives that the reporters knew were false and to make other revisions to the story that were in direct conflict with the facts. Fox editors then tried to force Akre and Wilson to continue to produce the distorted story. When they refused and threatened to report Fox's actions to the FCC, they were both fired.(Project Censored #12 1997)

Akre and Wilson sued the Fox station and on August 18, 2000, a Florida jury unanimously decided that Akre was wrongfully fired by Fox Television when she refused to broadcast (in the jury's words) “a false, distorted or slanted story” about the widespread use of BGH in dairy cows. They further maintained that she deserved protection under Florida's whistle blower law. Akre was awarded a $425,000 settlement. Inexplicably, however, the court decided that Steve Wilson, her partner in the case, was ruled not wronged by the same actions taken by FOX.

FOX appealed the case, and on February 14, 2003 the Florida Second District Court of Appeals unanimously overturned the settlement awarded to Akre. The Court held that Akre’s threat to report the station’s actions to the FCC did not deserve protection under Florida’s whistle blower statute, because Florida’s whistle blower law states that an employer must violate an adopted “law, rule, or regulation." In a stunningly narrow interpretation of FCC rules, the Florida Appeals court claimed that the FCC policy against falsification of the news does not rise to the level of a "law, rule, or regulation," it was simply a "policy." Therefore, it is up to the station whether or not it wants to report honestly. (Anybody surprised this happened in Florida?)

During their appeal, FOX asserted that there are no written rules against distorting news in the media. They argued that, under the First Amendment, broadcasters have the right to lie or deliberately distort news reports on public airwaves. Fox attorneys did not dispute Akre’s claim that they pressured her to broadcast a false story, they simply maintained that it was their right to do so.

As others have pointed out... it not only doesn't say anything about smart phones, it says nothing about prohibiting general video recording devices... Record to your hearts desires, so long as it isn't with a dedicated Camcorder or professional camera. I honestly don't think they care.
