Hands down, the Chair of the Republican Party, Reince Priebus has been lying and manipulating the voters on how the process for nominating and voting for a Presidential candidate is chosen. Repeatedly, he has said, “the rules are fair” knowing full well, the rules are not fair from the local to the national level.
Through a series of links and searches, the actual rules of the Republican Party which are not posted on their website anywhere, are posted here on my website and you can download them. At the end of this article, you’ll find links to all the information I’m giving you now.
If you take the time to read the entire 21 page document which is in very small print, you’ll notice there are very interesting circles and roundabouts which, if you can’t connect the dots, would be difficult for anyone to understand.
Because lawyers and politicians have to make everything rocket science, trying to clarify things for those who might bump their heads on common sense, there are quite a few rules boiling down to the fact the RNC Rules Committee can pretty much do whatever they want, whenever they want under the eye of the RNC Executive Committee which includes Priebus.
Since the rules governing the GOP say the “chairman” can call for the Rules Committee to meet to and make recommendations to amend the rules at any time, traditionally they just meet at the convention and change them after everyone’s run and been voted for, putting the weight in favor of whichever candidate they want to win regardless of how many delegates or votes they have received. Even the number 1,237 doesn’t really matter. They can kick that out too if they wanted.
Therefore, when Rush Limbaugh or Laura Ingraham, Karl Rove or Charles Krauthammer pretend the rules are fair, that’s also a load of crap. Posted rules do not equate to fairness. These posted rules completely favor power and money of elitists and friends. The deck is absolutely stacked in favor of golden children of the Party.
The GOPe is trying scare tactics to influence the American people to make it look good. They truly believe if they take out Trump, they’ve scared you enough to vote for whoever the Republican nominee will be. They know we are loyal to Conservative ideas which they’ve been using against us pretending as if the Republican party is Conservative.
Read the rules, there’s nothing in them stating anything about upholding Conservative ideas. The preamble doesn’t say anything about Conservative ideas and this is what the governing legal document is. It’s not what comes out of their mouths and it’s not what’s written on their website.
This is why it is imperative you read the legal rules governing the party and understand while technically Priebus is saying they’re following the rules, what he isn’t saying is the rules are stacked in the favor of power, greed and corrupt cronies of the Republican Party.
Just to be fair, the Democratic Party is set up the same. It’s all smoke and mirrors.
Yes, Virginia, the system is rigged!
Includes list of delegates and their affiliation, resolutions passed and failed. NOTE: you will notice the Colorado Convention not only passed to have a Presidential Primary by a narrow margin, they overwhelmingly wanted to stick with a caucus system also.

Dincha notice the American flag up in the corner and an over all pastiche of red white and blue for the site color theme? I assume that is enough for many God fearing patriots to not question her at all. Whatcha, a commie?

By all means take her blog post here and refute it for us, point by point.

Yeah but........Trump and all his money, he's hiring the very best, most tremendously knowledgeable and professional people to help him run the country, once he's elected. You'd think he's get people just as great to run his campaign and see these thing coming!

That's a very interesting article. Much food for thought.
And something interesting... I just tried to send a link to that article to one close family member.
My email service blocked it as spam?!
I was then able to send it fine through gmail.
Wonder what that means? I have never had outgoing mail blocked before.

Good thread, and a dust speck on that snowball above the
water line of the iceberg. FLag, star and sigh.
Rules, policy, statutes and laws aren't written anymore for
the good of the people or other interests, but for the drafters.
Drafters, lol. Why did I suddenly think of some group of
powerful but daft people, doing all this stuff-- wearing
metaphorical old school pajamas with the back doors open--
still oblivious to their gaping derriere's? I'm almost convinced
by now the steering powers that bee hind don't care.
