Ron Paul Campaign Condemns 'Hostile Takeover' of State Delegate Conventions

Primaries and caucus votes should have been read out loud. Whenever votes were read out loud, Ron Paul was the clear winner. Where votes were taken to a back room, put in a suit case, carried out to someone's trunk or read and "counted" privately...the results really can't be trusted, can they?

The "revolution" has a life of it's own and has become much bigger than it's author and CAN NOT BE STOPPED.

Funny, Ken,US News and no one else can count.. only the AP. Except they aren't able to count either. They only count the delegates that Paul aquired thru the conventions which are not considered bound to another candidate but include all of Romneys projected delegates despite the fact he hasn't or didn't get them. Liberty is supposed to look the other way in the face of repeated violations of the rules in order to be civil? You never hear them blame the so called "establishment" (whoever that it is)for creating the problem thru fraud and deception and rule violations. Just the Paul guys for being willing to stand up to it. As for respectful. In Minnesota Paul could have had 33 delegates but one of Pauls supporters stepped aside to allow Michelle Bachmann a slot. The process was designed around conventions and delegate selections for a reason. So the media and corrupt finances can't pervert the process. It's working clearly in the way its supposed to and thats why the media and the Wall Street boys are whining so much. There is nothing disrespectful or wrong with using the rules the way they are written and standing up to those Bullies who would use their money and the media to corrupt the process. for their own gain. If it gets little rowdy well....quit cheating. I look forward to the day they are run out of town.

Ken Walsh undoubtedly writes what he is told to write, and he feeds his family via packaged lies. It's called being a "journalist." Just like Pravda or Novosti! They only need to be mediocre at best. Then they get their standard-issue income, smile and do their job.

It takes time and hard work to reclaim a country back from the criminal syndicate that has been running it for 100 years. Ron Paul is motivating people to do what is feasible and necessary: take over local and county politics. Although it may never happen, I always like to think about a return to the Articles of Confederation. Through the legal, constitutional process, of course.

LOL at you guys randomly bringing up Rand's irrelevant statements.

Why am I not surprised?

I'm writing in Ron Paul's name regardless of what happens. Just like I have for the past 2 elections.

I'm done with the "lesser of two evils" form of representation in our government. I'm just going to vote my conscience and do what I can steer the majority toward their own individual rights.

I was going to vote for Mitt Romney until I read this article.

Now I'm going to vote for Ron Paul.
