This is why the RNC immediately changed the convention rules after the 2012 national convention, to make it all but impossible for grassroots groups to be delegates in 2016. The delegates will all be vetted by the moderate/business mossbacks in the RNC. This guarantees the demise of the Republican Party, of course.
My understanding was that they changed the rules just before the convention to prevent Ron Paul’s dirty little scheme to get unbound electors to vote for him.
The elder Paul lost any respect I may have ever had for him with that bit of dirty pool.
It’s sad that so many FReepers and Conservatives forget that fact and tear into any of us who advise that elections are moot - and rigged to ensure the Ruling Class Statists are always ‘selected’.
We are BEYOND elections to save what is left of Republicanism and liberty in this country.
But I guess nothing is worth fighting for in this country, unless it’s homosexual marriage and ‘tolerance’.
