The entire article is EXCELLENT.

Here’s just a portion.....

Let me ask America a question: How has the “system” been working out for you and your family?

I, for one, am not interested in defending a system that for decades has served the interest of political parties at the expense of the people. Members of the club—the consultants, the pollsters, the politicians, the pundits and the special interests—grow rich and powerful while the American people grow poorer and more isolated.

No one forced anyone to cancel the vote in Colorado. Political insiders made a choice to cancel it. And it was the wrong choice.

Responsible leaders should be shocked by the idea that party officials can simply cancel elections in America if they don’t like what the voters may decide.

The only antidote to decades of ruinous rule by a small handful of elites is a bold infusion of popular will. On every major issue affecting this country, the people are right and the governing elite are wrong. The elites are wrong on taxes, on the size of government, on trade, on immigration, on foreign policy.


Take that establishment!!! We the People are mad and SICK of your back room deals and rigging the ‘game’.

Thank you for posting this article up on DRUDGE now.

The take away line is:

” Voter disenfranchisement is not merely part of the Cruz strategy— it is the Cruz strategy. “ ~~ Donald J. Trump

The identical can be said about his strategy for the disenfranchisement of TRUMP delegates to Cleveland and in Cleveland.

My wife and I know a couple who live in public housing. EBT cards, you know the drill.

They just got back from a Caribbean vacation.

My wife and I are saving up, but so far we can’t go to the Caribbean. We try to save as much as we can, but what with mortgage, property tax, and food bills, it’s a slow process.

I think the system works well for some. But not for the people with jobs.

At the risk of being redundant, I am posting the RNC rule which resulted in the Colorado GOP changing their rules.

RULE NO. 16
Election, Selection, Allocation, or Binding of Delegates and Alternate Delegates
(a) Binding and Allocation.
(1) Any statewide presidential preference vote that permits a choice among candidates for the Republican
nomination for President of the United States in a primary, caucuses, or a state convention must be used to allocate and bind the
state’s delegation to the national convention in either a proportional or winner-take-all manner, except for delegates and alternate
delegates who appear on a ballot in a statewide election and are elected directly by primary voters.
(2) The Secretary of the Convention shall faithfully announce and record each delegate’s vote in accordance
with the delegate’s obligation under these rules, state law or state party rule. If any delegate bound by these rules, state party rule
or state law to vote for a presidential candidate at the national convention demonstrates support under Rule 40 for any person
other than the candidate to whom he or she is bound, such support shall not be recognized. Except as provided for by state law or
state party rule, no presidential candidate shall have the power to remove a delegate.

The Colorado GOP did not want to be bound by the will of the voters of a presidential preference poll. Had they done the election, they would have been required to allocate the delegates based upon the voting.

The Colorado wanted to not be stuck with the will of the people.

It is time to point out that Colorado has not gone Republican since 2004. As a swing state, the Colorado GOP should be attempting to involve more voters in the primary. This does not bode well for this state turning RED in November, no matter which nominee comes from our convention due to the insular nature of the Colorado state party leadership.

Sad state of affairs.

If I were a D.C. politician, I’d say everything’s hunky-dory.

I’ve got that summer home, the kids are in private prep schools or first-tier colleges, and I’m driving a European sports car while the wife wears diamonds.

Do you wonder that I don’t want Trump or Cruz rocking the boat?

[How has the ‘system’ been working out for you and your family?]

Uh, mostly not since 2008, especially. Worse that I could have imagined and that is absolutely the truth.
