The First order of business at the 2016 Republican Convention should be to repeal Rule 40.
I do not vote for liberals, democrats, the mentally unstable or those with severe personality disorders nor will I knowingly vote for a Rino. Trump falls into some if not all these categories including Rino.
Without Rule 40 there should be no problem, If Trump or Cruz meets the criteria WITHOUT rule 40 they should be the nominee. Rule 40 was passed by a questionable voice vote at the last Convention and a roll call was denied. I believe it was also done while the Virginia delegation which opposed it was being given a ride around on a bus from the hotel to the convention site by a “lost” bus driver.
Rule 40 was put in for a situation like we have at this time where the Republican base is in revolt against the GOP-e and is a way for the GOP-e to fraudulently retain power and control.

I don’t think that is correct.
Rule 40 was there for years, it merely upped the number of 5 states to eight states.
After the 2012 primary it was increased due to the Ron Paul situation in 2012.

It sounds as though you want to abolish the minimum threshold.
Are you saying we should have went with Paul in 2012 or Mitt?
