What to bring with you to the Iowa Caucus

[Ack]

-Your ID

-A pen for your ballot (don't assume that they'll be provided!)

-Extra Iowa voter registration forms for any RP supporters who show up who are not yet registered Republican and need to register at the door. You can print these out here: http://www.sos.state.ia.us/pdfs/elections/voteapp.pdf

-A printout of http://www.ronpaul2008.com/files/IowaCaucusHandbook.pdf for reference

-A video or audio recorder to keep things honest.

-As many Ron Paul supporters from your precinct as you can round up!

Anything I've left out? Add it below!

I'm bringin' my copy of RP's A Foreign Policy of Freedom as reading material while any McLame supporters are spewing out their garbage -

from his reasons why English should not be an official language of the nation and how we need more foreign aid to be taxed to come out of your wallets under threat and penalty of imprisonment.

A town crier outfit a bell and the constitution to read in a clear strong voice

Demand a real debate- don't let party leaders squash the debate in favor of speeches by 'leaders', rules and other boring crap. Demand a real debate, and a transparent vote.

Last time they had us put little scraps of paper into a hat, then whisper the results amongst the 'leaders'. When asked for a visible recount, with supporters standing in groups of 10- a few minders came up and shushed me while the DLC chair slammed the gavel and told us it was time to leave- the room was reserved for another party!

Be prepared for dirty tricks- there are moles- and that's no 'theory'.
