When and how did people prepare for convention and Rally last time?

Love Ron Paul's talk, though a bit scripted.....only concern is the Campaign is now concentrating on the Platform and is saying nothing about Nominating Ron for President on the Convention Floor.

If we have the five States to Nominate Ron, then he MUST be Nominated. We have all worked to hard for anything less.

Seems to me like we (the supporters) and the delegates are going with the intention of just that, getting the nomination for RP.

This has to be the goal. Fight fight fight. Know the rules. Do whatever we can. Do everything we can.

I didn't see any of your YT videos, at least not that I know of, and I'm sorry if your account got closed. (Did you try appealing it with YouTube?)

Regarding the campaign though, do you really believe Ron Paul never had any intention of winning?

As for Ron Paul and his intentions of winning. No, he didn't want to be President...and said that. The difference is, if he was REALLY serious about meaning that, and not simply using his campaign to make sure friends/family got paychecks, he should have just kept Campaign for Liberty running, and he should never have run in the first place and wasted so much time/energy from the grassroots.

As for my YouTube account, I have appealed probably once a week now, and even contacted an outside "contact us" email I found, even though I don't know if it's going through.
You can see the forum I started on it back in early May:

Huh?

When did he say that? You must be misinterpreting something... Whatever it is that makes you think he said that, please provide a link to that. Because I am not aware he has ever said he didn't want to become President. You're misconstruing something. If you think he didn't want to, that's one thing, but please don't put words in Ron Paul's mouth. We already have the MSM for that and they're doing a great job without your help.

Ron Paul didn't say he didn't want to be President, he said he doesn't go to sleep at night and dream of being President. He said he doesn't want to be President because its a powerful position, he was always the reluctant candidate and that's why we love him- that's why hed be such a good President.

Gotta write the official campaign off. It's been co-opted. That's clear to everyone by now. No use bitching about it now.

Remember, Ron's ad guy's wife is a Romney campaign staffer. There has been some very careful placement of staffers in the official campaign that have, in hindsight, influenced the official campaign's efforts in a negative direction.

This is noteworthy. The part about Ron's ad guy's wife. It is true that Romney is the one guy that we haven't attacked. And he's the guy who won. And we're still talking about fighting the Santorum people about the platform. Can't we work with the Santorum people on everything from platform to make sure people get to vote for Ron? We better be getting what we want from Romney if we don't work with Santorum's people.

We haven't been fighting to influence the platform. That hasn't been the reason. I've been reading news articles from our new delegates that completely downplay any intentions of fighting for the nomination. We should be fighting for the nomination. The Iowans should be voting to put Ron Paul's name in. It's good that delegates are talking in public of completely rational reasons for fighting hard to get to the convention. But those delegates better vote for Ron Paul in Tampa. Things are settling out ok. I will be pissed though if we don't get the vote. We should have that.

All I can say is if the GOP really wants to win, they'd better find someone with a backbone. That is, NOT Mitt Romney.

I agree. But I think they use cherry-picked quotes. I think they probably talked to several delegates and Ron Paul supporters, and finally after asking about ten or twelve of them they finally found one who was willing to say "Yea, we're fighting to influence the party platform." They leave out all the ones who say "Romney doesn't have anything yet. We're going to Tampa to win!" It's all about manipulating public perception...

Cool, I'm not saying I know what to think of those quotes, just that we better have the vote if we have the states. We should have 3 states for sure. Maine, Minnesota, Iowa.
