Consider the possibility that this is a fake story.

Ted isn't going to get nominated this year, and isn't trying any more.

He has plans for the election in four or eight years and he's not ready to endorse Trump this time, but the fight for this year's nomination is over.

Fake story? You think people are making stuff up to make Cruz look bad?

I don’t think it’s a fake article. The stopping of primaries was discussed at the April meeting in Florida. -Curly

Sources in the article include NBC & Politico.

I don't know if I'd call it fake. But it is certainly incompetent.

Consider the OP's hot-button paragraph:

The key discussion points, which will also be the likely flash points during the convention, will include CLOSED PRIMARIES. THIS MEANS DOING AWAY WITH OPEN PRIMARIES AND THE "CONSCIENCE CLAUSE," which will RELEASE CONSERVATIVE DELEGATES FROM SUPPORTING THE PRESUMPTIVE DELEGATE, should that delegate represent views that contradict theirs or the party.

Any idiot, except maybe a Filipina idiot, knows there is no connection between the "conscience clause" and the notion of a closed primary. Also, note the phrase "presumptive delegate", an obvious typo.

Yes, I said Filipina idiot. How xenophobic and sexist of me! But there is no Liezl Dunuan in these United States. However, there is a freelance writer by that name in the Philippines. Christian Post needs to stop with the outsourcing!
