A little apprehension is good and healthy. But we are in a fight - there has been blatant disregard for rule of law in our country, and this is a worth fighting for cause of using the law to bring the criminals down. I am very excited about what is in store.
By the way, you get squat divided by zero if you don't try, every time, guaranteed.
We have the delegates, pro liberty guys, they will be at the convention, hundreds of them. There is a lot that can be achieved, some that might be achieved, and some things that are simply over-reaching. Ever watch a war movie? Seen the parts at the end of the battle where soldiers are going through the clothes and buildings looking for intel..... trust me, you want to be those guys, not the guys on the ground. The greatest glory in battle, is in success. Custer is not taught at command and general staff college as a brilliant guy.
What we have:
1. enough to get Dr. Paul an unedited speech on the floor.
2. enough to have influence on the platform
3. an opportunity to change hearts and minds (ok, that one is flimsy)
What we might have:
1. enough to cause a bit of chaos on the floor, by voting unbound, regardless of what the courts say.
2. enough to heckle and interupt non-pro liberty speakers.
3. enough to cause the convention to implode.
What we don't have
1. enough to get Dr. Paul nominated. He's said so himself.
Most don't plan to fail, many fail to plan. There are high stakes for us, we will either rise to greater heights, or not.
