Tea Party, FR presence at the Republican convention?
vanity

Posted on 09/30/2015 2:55:39 PM PDT by hardspunned

I'm of the opinion that the conservative rank and file of the party needs to represented in Cleveland. I'm planning on being there regardless of who the nominee might be.

Are there any organized FR events being planned? Any advice on where I might find Tea Party type activists who will be there?

Should the media and GOP establishment shut us out again I'd like to voice my anger as vociferously as possible. Of course, should Cruz or one of ours win I'd like to show my support.

If anyone here or their family belongs to any kind of a union, if you are elected to be a delegate the union will pay their way .... it’s in the by-laws. Of course, that was written for the Democratic Party, but they can’t “discriminate” now can they?

The last Republican National Convention offered zero, zilch, nada to the party's conservative wing.

Newt Gingrich was allowed to speak, but he gave a platitude-ridden hack speech that seemed out of character for him. He should have defied the GOPe, thrown away the script they had given him and delivered one of the barnburners for which he is known.

The GOPe didn't so much as throw conservatives a bone at that convention. And then they scratched their heads, wondering why millions of conservative stayed home on Election Day.

“wondering why millions of conservatives stayed home on election day”

This suits the GOPe fine. Regardless of what we did they're still in Washington getting rich. We need a 100,000 LOUD conservatives in the street, at the very least, making their betrayal uncomfortable.

If they offer up Bush to secure a Biden or Clinton election revolution now is our only hope. Let it start in Cleveland.
