Can you post the OATH that you took that would be helpful to this discussion. Thanks

Actually, the oath posted currently on our executive committee site does, in fact, match the oath that you posted. I can only imagine that it must have been updated lately, but am certainly going to re-check the oaths that my wife and I signed (I do recall having second thoughts about a clause in that oath that related to limiting speech, however nothing at all about campaign contributions).

My experience in the Republican Party has been interesting. One thing I have noted is that the Tea Party really exerts only very slim influence within the Party. I'm hoping to see that influence grow during this next election cycle, otherwise I may be following in your footsteps.
