Actually, it was Ron that was trying to do the delegate rigging in 12 (He wasn't winning primaries). The GOP of course pulled out every lie and trick to stop him and called him scum for doing it. Which is ironic how they've done it themselves in favor of Cruz.
The thing that really destroyed Ron's campaign was the media ignoring him once they realized he was a threat. Total media blackout on Ron Paul. They wanted to do the same to Trump, but Trump pulling them in like they were cats and he's catnip.
What you say is true.
I remember Ron Paul had his very own delegates as stealth plants. However, I heard Doug Weat say that Romney had them removed from the floor. Some, bodily.
How he proved his case to do that, I don’t know, but we should think TRUMP might want to brush up on the bright idea. LOL!
Weat claims Trump can do it.
Doug Weat was on Lou Dobbs this week earlier. You guys might have caught the show. He is a Libertarian and a convention historian and has worked for ten presidential candidates, two of which he said actually won the presidency. He was enlisted with the Ron Paul campaign and worked for G W Bush.
It was very interesting. Maybe you could find that segment on youtube. I can’t do links.
My antenna perked up when he said all the talk is about the Rules Committee, but that it’s the Credentials Committee you want to watch. What do you think?
