The Nevada Sons and Daughters of Liberty Meetup Group (Reno, NV. Welcome to our Meetup Group! This Meetup Group is dedicated to continuing the fight for the principles of the Ron Paul Revolution, which were essentially those of the American Revolution. Like our Founding Fathers, we believe in liberty, limited Constitutional government, and personal responsibilty. This Meetup Group is part of the evolution of the Ron Paul Revolution. We plan to continue our efforts for freedom around Nevada by spreading Ron Paul's message of freedom, prosperity, and peace, and so continue to gain ground in the on-going battle for liberty. We look forward to becoming a group of liberty defenders, ready to peacefully mobilize at a moment's notice and to react to breaking developments; a type of modern Minutemen!

Last week, IVN commented on a lawsuit brought by alleged delegates to the Republican National Convention. The Republican National Committee, while stating that suit was frivolous at the same time organized all the named defendants into a united defense against this litigation. There is no indication yet that the complaint in the action was served on any defendant or that the RNC has voluntarily appeared and moved to take any pretrial actions. What is clear: Ron Paul’s delegate count continues to rise. That lawsuit while wrongly brought in California will either be shipped to Massachusetts or a new one will be filed in Massachusetts because of very ill advice by the MA Republican Party, which is now seeking to strip Romney bound Paul supporters of their delegate credentials.

Whether the two Massachusetts Paul supporters who were Romney bound delegates were removed is unclear. Mr. Gilbert in that radio interview did make 2 salient points – overlooking the “plaintiff” and venue issues. Ron Paul Republicans: The R3VOLUTION. Ron Paul victories in states they were cheated out of beauty contest wins - Washington DC Conservative. To those that either were not paying attention while the beauty contests were plagued with blatant corruption or have such short memories that you would allow msm to spin the stories into a narrative that the Ron Paul campaign supposedly is cheating and stealing delegates, I would have to reply with.....

"Nonsense". Between election fraud, bogus polls leading up to beauty contests, numerous straw poll victories by Ron Paul that were conveniently ignored and now convention shenanigans, it is extraordinary that Paul supporters are still the ones concerned with actually obeying the party rules. The fact is that the Paul campaign's big mistake throughout this process has been their confidence in being able to come back to the states they were initially cheated out of and pick-up the delegates anyway.

This confidence possibly was the contributing factor that caused them to not fight for the beauty contest wins and better expose the election fraud in the first place. Paul Festival: The Fight for the Ron Paul Grassroots' Soul - Hit & Run. The Ron Paul grassroots are celebrating their final hurrah, at least during the actual political career of their inspiration, Rep. Ron Paul (R-Texas), at Tampa’s Florida fairgrounds this weekend. (Paul will be holding his own farewell rally on Sunday.) Day one of the Paul Festival showed a movement less unified, present, and excited than it wants to be.

But most of them are still sure that, whether or not the Republican Party will continue to be the horse they ride, they’ll keep up a fight for political liberty that’s turning out to be more complicated and difficult than many expected. The event was thinly attended on day one; my estimate is no more than 800 were present at any one time. The other one had stage for speakers and musical entertainment. That fact—that Ron Paul was no longer trying to win it—was the key to the concern and even sometimes anguish of most of the RNC delegates and alternates for Paul who I met at Paulfest. “I’ve been a Republican for 18 years," Daugherty says.

Nevada's Ron Paul supporters won't give up the fight. Leila Navidi Joe Sword of Las Vegas rallies with others while waiting for Rep. Ron Paul to arrive at a campaign stop at American Shooters, an indoor gun range and retail store in Las Vegas Friday, Feb. 3, 2012. By Anjeanette Damon Thursday, Aug. 23, 2012 | 2 a.m. Rep. On the national stage, deals are being struck between Republican presidential nominee-to-be Mitt Romney and Rep.

But the Nevada delegation dominated by a contingent of Paul supporters fully intends to carry out its strategy to place Paul’s name up for nomination from the convention floor, delegation chairman Wayne Terhune said Wednesday. “In our case, you need a majority of the delegation to nominate a candidate,” Terhune said. Even Paul’s most ardent supporters, who have proven adept at using the Republican Party's own rules to keep his candidacy alive, admit the chance is beyond slim that they would succeed in ousting Romney as the party’s ultimate presidential nominee. “It’s a really, really small window,” Terhune said. Pa’s Republican Delegate Selection: Some Chaos Ensues – The Political Express. There is one word that describes the Republican delegate selection process in Pennsylvania: chaotic.

Much proverbial ink has been spilt trying to decipher what might happen when the state’s Republican voters cast ballots on April 24 in the presidential preference primary and the delegate elections, but nothing definitive really can be written. If all four presidential candidates had filed a full slate of delegates in the 18 congressional districts, 216 delegate candidates would have been on the ballot. But only 184 delegate candidates actually filed to appear on the ballot. At first it seems simple enough to understand. The state has a total of 72 delegates, 54 of whom will be elected on April 24—three at most out of each of the state’s congressional districts, plus five additional delegates awarded to the five best performing districts. Now here’s the rub. Certainly the delegate candidates are playing within the rules if they adhere to any of these possibilities.
