Six States Nominate Congressman Ron Paul for President at the Republican National Convention

TAMPA, August 28, 2012-- Supporters of Congressman Ron Paul have collected the necessary signatures to nominate him for President of the United States at the RNC. The current rules state that a plurality of delegates from five states are required to nominate a candidate for President. The Secretary of the Convention, Kim Reynolds, was presented with the forms over an hour before the call for nominations.

“We are excited to get Dr. Paul nominated,” said Wayne Terhune, Nevada Delegation Chairman. “Congressman Paul’s message of limited, Constitutional government, sound foreign policy, and personal liberty needs to be heard on this convention floor.”

The list of nominating states and territories are: Nevada, Minnesota, Iowa, Oregon, Alaska, and the Virgin Islands.

The person who truly skewed the campaign and resulted in Romney is Ron Paul. Furthermore, he’s not even a Republican and I can’t imagine why he was allowed to present himself as one this time around.

But he did some serious damage, and I see he’s not finished.

[trooprally]

You are correct about the path of destruction. Apparently the Electors in 24 States are not required by law or "pledges" to vote for whom they were chosen to vote for. Technically, if the electoral votes are close, Paulbots can stack the deck in some small States and vote differently than how the State voted. This could get Obambi "re-elected". I believe that either Congress or the Senate can over ride the electoral college results. As the old saying goes - it ain't over till the fat lady sings. [Mr] T

I don't agree with Ron Paul on a lot of things, but he is right on many issues. While the issues he's wrong on may be big important issues, you have to accept that he is 100% right on many big important issues that many won't talk about bluntly. I think people should at least acknowledge the issues he's correct on. He's a more legitimate Conservative than Romney. I know people get upset with him on big issues that are important to them, but he also agrees with many of those same people on big Constitutional issues that other politicians aren't as open about. I'm not a Paul supporter, and I use to listen to mainstream Republicans about him being crazy, but then I heard these same people support liberals like Romney.

I don't want Paul to be President, and I think it's clear he never will be, but the point I'm trying to make is I would much rather have Conservatives who believe like me debating Conservatives who believe like Paul instead of the liberal career politicians who we are fighting in the GOP now. I want the socialist in our nation to stop degrading our Constitution intentionally, and instead have people debating Constitutional issues they see as genuine instead of the ridiculous arguments made by liberals who know they are not on the same page as our founders. They make up an argument they don't really believe themselves and then repeat it.

I don't understand a Conservative disliking Paul, but supporting Romney. I can see Conservatives disliking both. While the issues I disagree with Paul on are very serious, so are the issues I agree with him on. I don't support him now, and I never have, but I'm not supporting Romney either. There is no way we will ever see a Constitutional government regardless of who is elected President with our current government. It is a tyrannical government that can't be changed from within the system, and that's common knowledge now. People just don't know what the alternative is, but there is a solution that would most likely be peaceful where only our federal government could start violence against it's people, or where our states would retake their rightful freedom given to them by our Constitution with defiance when it comes to obvious unconstitutional laws and mandates forced on them. Not trying to stop it through corrupt courts where it cost huge amounts of money, and takes a ridiculous amount of time, and usually achieves little.

There’s just something goofy about that guy." What kind of man wears Armor Hot Dogs, or fake eyebrows?

Uh, sorry we’re late, but Luann had to put on her face. She doesn’t want anyone to know she’s got no eyebrows.

Turn on, tune in, drop out already

[wastedyears]

He’d be great in a cabinet position dealing with America only. Foreign policy, not so much.

[prairiebreeze]

Never trust a Paulbot.

Rule change ping. See Post 44.

More information about the possible machinations.

[montag813]

Bradley Manning is a national hero, and Muslims are all peaceful unless provoked by American imperialism! Wow, I learned SO MUCH from Ron Paul’s speech yesterday! /s

[Monorprise]

Then go ahead and vote for him now, may your chains rest lightly upon you in your servitude to the state. We can only hope that history forgets you were ever our countrymen.

[CharlesWayneCT]

Apparently, I care about lying a lot more than you do, both personally and when it’s in the political process.

[presently no screen name]

Yeah a romneybot cares about lying going on in the political process, cares so much they embrace it.

If one doesn’t allow lying in their personal life and it’s repellant to them, they never support a candidate who is a KNOWN LIAR. Truth doesn’t flip flop.

[CharlesWayneCT]

But you aren’t a Romneybot.

[rbmillerjr]

I will proudly vote for Mitt Romney and Paul Ryan, like 99 percent of all Republicans will and like 99 percent of all conservatives will.

I will be standing with Palin, Newt, and Santorum...and you will standing with Pelosi, Reid and Debbie Wasserman Schultz.

[rdb3]

I wonder why no one refers to the Paulbots as RINOs.

Since RP is truly a Libertarian, he is a bona fide Republican In Name Only.

The pain you feel today is the strength you'll have tomorrow.
