We have a quorum!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Nevada changes the course of human history.....

[Jdayh]

For those of you who REALLY WANT DESIRE AND NEED TO HAVE A FREE NATION....Nevada has set a landmark in the halls of history.....Today they have reconvened and remade the NEVADA GOP...and even as I am posting this they are electing delegates to the NATIONAL CONVENTION....(mostly, if not all, Ron Paul delegates) THIS WILL COUNT TOWARDS RON PAUL WINNING THE STATE OF NEVADA....which will allow them to NOMINATE HIM FROM THE FLOOR which is what this whole thing is really all about. Once he has a state that he legally wins(ie gets the majority of delegates for that state) He can then be nominated for President at the National Republican Convention. THIS MEANS THIS CAMPAIGN IS IN FULL GEAR!!!!!

Here is a bit of information on how they are doing this legally....

They did not have a quorum based on the old convention, but that convention has been invalidated due to rule breaking.(see below in bold) So now they have a new quorum with full attendance.Which means it is fully legal and shall withstand the scrutiny of legal challenges that may come!!!!

There is no "former" convention, the convention NEVER recessed. The convention has always been going on. Under RONR (10th. Ed.) sec. 20, p. 222, ln. 30,

"A recess is a short intermission in the assembly's proceedings, commonly only of a few minutes, which does not close the meeting and after which business will immediately be resumed at exactly the point where it was interrupted."

Thus, by definition, a recess can never be used to close a meeting. Under RONR, there are two types of recess: (1) a privileged motion to recess, requiring a majority vote, or (2) a unilateral recess being declared by the chair if it was provided for in the agenda or program. On April 26th, a RECESS was not provided for in the program or agenda (even though the agenda on April 26th. may have provided for ADJOURNMENT at a particular time, completely different from a recess).

Thus, the purported recess on April 26th. would have been valid ONLY if a motion to recess was made and seconded by the convention delegates, and the motion was voted on by a majority of delegates. Even then, however, the recess could not have been used to close the meeting.

For this reason shown above they now have a new quorum that is roughly 300 (a bit more) delegates. And now business is taking place with full legality and force of law behind them. WE THE PEOPLE SHALL AND WILL PREVAIL!!!!!

LONG LIVE THE REPUBLIC OF THESE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA.....now GO spread the word to every man, women and creature that we can still win Ron Paul the PRESIDENCY OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA!!!!

Unfortunately you still have to face the Republican National Committee. When the establishment Republicans hold their July convention they will select their slate of McCain delegates and will likely have an old quorum based on the 'first convention.'

When both the July convention and today's convention propose their delegations and arguments to the RNC, guess who the establishment RNC is going to choose as the legit delegation?

You've given evidence why today's convention should be recognized. Now give evidence how whatever argument the July Republicans use is invalid.

Correction... The old convention was not invalid because this was a co ntinuation of the old convention, technically day 2 of the same convention. So there is really no difference between old and new. one in the same.

Also, it was not found that the day one of the convention was invalid, only that the credentials report was improper because it was received under a ruling that we were operating under no rules which violates party rules.

With a new credentials report that was properly received, we could resume the second day.

Meh, big deal. Rack up the delegates regardless I say.

This is the problem right here. The dirty, corrupt GOP is going to side with McCain no matter how legit today's convention was. They're the ones who shut down the April convention after it became clear Paul would win. They strong-armed useful idiot Bob Beers too.

No, he only ended his campaign. He is still in the race, he just can't "campaign"

btw, if you read this, I'd appreciate it if you edited your comment so others don't have the wrong impression.

Because we did it first. The other convention heads were voted out of office, they don't have the authority to run a convention any more.

This is the benefit of playing by the rules.

Democracy in action, way to work it guys. Keep up the great work!

 

[Jdayh]

NO --he only suspended his campaign, he did not release any of his delegates now or future delegates....it was done simply to use his campaign money more wisely ,with less restrictions...

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!!!!!!!!!!!! WOOOOOOOOOOOHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO Eat it Neocons! this is too funny...all the power and money in the world can not stop a small and persistent group of people from exerting their will and determination on world events. This is awesome. Where is that link for the stream?

the revolutioooooooaaan!!!

 

[newbitech]

i would be surprised if the establishment GOP tries to challenge this. The last thing McCain needs is the Obama press talking about a divided GOP. This is nice leverage to get Dr. Paul an invitation to the Republican Convention in which he should accept with the condition that all of his friends be allowed to attend.

Butt..... I don't expect that at this point. The Campaign is not ready to capitalize I'm afraid. Hate to sound so negative, but I am jealous and wish this could have happened here in FL. I just don't think Dr. Paul really has it in him to carry this fight. He did what he set out to accomplish beyond his wildest dreams. I just hope he is ready to make one more statement and that is to try and force the GOP to allow his alt convention to join with the GOP, even if it is standing room only. Of course the repubs will turn it down..

But that is what it will take to get American's, regular non political folks, on our side in this fight.

 

[Agent CSL]

This is great news. Forget about all the bad scenarios and focus on the fact that we are still a large presence in the GOP convention, and this just gives us more steam.

The last thing McCain needs is the Obama press talking about a divided GOP.

Of course, you are assuming that Obama would do any such thing and that the right/left, Republican/Democrat paradigm is in the least bit real and not the wrestling-style charade that it truly is.

So, Obama keeps his mouth shut and the NV GOP cheat Ron Paul out of his delegates...Who wants to bet me?!?!!?

Hell, even if Obama turned out NOT to be a CFR-owned warmongering bitch boy, he would say nothing as the last thing he wants right now is the possibility of another challenger getting in the ring. He is enjoying giving Crack Cocaine the "Smackdown" so much it isn't even funny anymore!

When are the GOP going to accept that McInsane simply CANNOT win the election for them and give the only real hope for change a shot?! (rhetorical, of course!)

 

[rprprs]

Yikes... I can't believe we get good news and right away the nay-sayers climb out from below. Whatever the morrow brings, for now I say:

CONGRATULATIONS, NEVADA PATRIOTS!

Let me see if I understand...

Because the June convention voted the heads out of office, they just won't show up to their July convention?

I'm pretty sure they're going to conduct their convention whether voted out or not.

it won't be Obama doing it. It will be the media looking to spin and propagandize and patronize the Obama supporters. The left/right Repub/Dem paradigm is real in the eye and pen of the vast VAST majority of voters. THAT my friend is the reality.

I think what you are offering is a suckers bet because I truly believe that this won't make the MSM. McCain doesn't need the Nevada delegates. It won't be challenged publicly until well after the election. McCain's camp is more than willing to concede this loss to pacify and distract the revolution crowd.

What the Nevada Ron Paul supporters accomplished is nothing short of spectacular and should be a blue print for 2010. But this is a hollow victory unless the candidate takes up fight. We will be once again begging for media attention over this, and once again the media with throw us a bone that has already been picked. The media will insult us and continue to make fun and TROA (the rest of america) will laugh at us like a failed idol contestant. Don't you see the pattern here?

IF for some reason this win happens to cause a national stir, McCain will use it to his advantage by inviting Dr. Paul to speak at the convention. Dr. Paul will likely decline, HOWEVER, if the invitation is sent because of this win (and that would be the right thing for the GOP to do), Dr. Paul's campaign should NOT decline. Dr. Paul should accept with the condition that everyone at his rally be invited to the convention floor as well. FORCE the GOP to decline Dr. Paul's one and only condition and that is all Ron Paul supporters be recognized for believing that the republican party is the party of the founders.

PS, did you get past "Obama press"? or just decide to jump all over that? Cause I wasn't really talking about that dichotomy in my post.
