It was not just the Ron Paul supporters who were disenfranchised at the RNC convention. The Tea Party was put down also by changing the rules. The RNC disenfranchised the Maine voters and then replaced them with their own delegates. Remember, if ANYONE'S freedom is lost (even if it is someone you dont' agree with) then yours is lost. And your group may be next. That is why we all need to shine a light on the power play done at the RNC. First they came for the Jews and I did not speak out - because I was not a Jew. Then they came for the communists and I did not speak out - because I was not a communist. Then they came for the trade unionists and I did not speak out - because I was not a trade unionist. Then they came for me - and by then there was no one left to speak out for me. The German anti-Nazi activist, Pastor Martin Niem�ller

For sure. Ron Paul and the Tea Party have a lot in common, and I support both. What happened here was the Republican party elite shoving everyone else out of the way. The split in the Republican party just widened, because of the actions of RINOs who want to stay in power.
