This guy is afraid of runaway convention!

There will be safeguards against that sort of things such as keeping the politicians out of it, limit it to what issues will be looked at and changes if needed. Term Limits.

And add some things to keep somebody like Obama and the like totally out of our government.

Your gun group may be kept out of it due to your attitude.

If you believe that, I have the Brooklyn Bridge to sell.

They are Not my gun group- I am divorcing them. I am not very tolerant of Con Con hand wringers. Bye Bye NAGR.

Well, maybe comments, thoughts, and behind the scenes actions like you describe above are what he's afraid of, too. My concern is over one of "who will watch the watchers?" To put it in a more relevant context, "who watches the organizers and deciders of the CoS?" How were they chosen?

It is easy to say there'll be safeguards, rules, decorum and consensus about what's to happen, but I can't help but to think about that line "the most careful of battle plans are thrown out the window when the first shot is fired." I am disillusioned about it because you rarely, rarely can find someone nowadays in government, politics, or conservative activism that actually does what they say they will do.

A case in point for me is the recent expose about the actual candidate donation rates (% to candidates) of the top Tea Party sentiment/affiliated PACs. Frankly, they are embarrassing and disgusting IMO, and they certainly don't give me good reason to believe in the best hopes of a CoS.
