A Unified Convention Torn Apart?

That's just a bunch of empty rhetoric. All I'm saying is that the guy for whom I cast my vote should actually get my vote. That shouldn't be a controversial proposition, but apparently, it's goring the ox of a bunch of party flunkies who thought their gig earned them the right to substitute their judgments for those of the voters.

Yesterday’s actions were intended to stifle and prevent the TEA Party or anyone like Palin from threatening the Ruling Class’ hold onto power in the GOP and in D.C.

I don't get that. If a Tea Party candidate, Palin or otherwise, gets the votes in the primary, he/she gets the delegates. It's pretty simple. But what this sounds like is certain members of various organizations wanting the right to control the outcome despite the fact that they didn't actually win the votes.

How would you like it if a Tea Party candidate actually won the votes in a primary, but party functionary delegates decided to support someone else instead? This stuff cuts both ways.

You obviously were not paying attention to what was going on during the primaries and before by Romney’s people in concert with Obama’s media.

What you asked me is EXACTLY what occurred in the primaries in some states.

The votes of the people in many cases ended up being stolen and apportioned to Romney delegates. Some of that even happened with Ron Paul’s nutso brigades.

I guess my point is that putting faith in the current electoral process is beyond insanity at this point with Cook County gone national with the Ruling Class working hand-in-hand with a Marxist regime.

If we are stupid enough to actually believe our votes are properly counted and apportioned in the current climate of evil and corruption - then we deserve fully what is coming.

It is extremely difficult to discuss this stuff if you just keep stating conclusions instead of specific facts. Lacking specifics, I'll simply say that I'm limiting my comments to supporting the idea that national candidates should be permitted to choose the particular delegates who will be assigned to that candidate based on the proportion of votes won by that candidate. I do not support the idea of some local/state party functionaries whose identities I don't even know can do whatever they want regardless of the primary votes cast.

Funny then, that Romney did exactly what you have a problem with in the primaries to sledgehammer himself into the nomination.

And BTW, my conclusions are based on current facts and a little roadmap known as history to note the consistent markers. All that you once knew in terms of how all this is supposed to operate... is gone, out the window.

We’ve seen our last honest elections and the last of our voices influencing the Ruling Class in power.

On top of that, our ideology is become the minority. We are being outbred by a welfare and immigrant class and overrun by an amnesty of millions of foreigners that combined with the welfare class, WANTS A MaxoFascist Socialist government. Voting isn’t going to change reality. This election was a mechanism to silence political opposition and permanently emplace government as God over the people.

We’re serfs and subjects now. Regardless which Ruling Class stooge is at the Podium come January 20.
