People think it's a farce to not nominate of the two leading delegate getters, but it's always been in the party rules that you need a majority and not plurality. After that, it's a free for all. I actually hope they nominate someone else in a contested convention.

Same. Even Kasich would be a step up.laxwyo wrote:People think it's a farce to not nominate of the two leading delegate getters, but it's always been in the party rules that you need a majority and not plurality.

I would guess that they would have to put someone in who didn't run (Romney? Ryan?). I can't imagine putting someone in who ran and was soundly beaten down by the people. Of course, I also can't imagine them putting someone in who didn't even run and didn't even give the voters a chance to voice their opinion.fromolwyoming wrote:Same.

Really bizarre scenario no matter what happens.

If you know anything about Wyoming's caucus system, the party leaders in Cheyenne hold most of the power just like in the national party conventionragtimejoe1 wrote:I would guess that they would have to put someone in who didn't run (Romney?

For sure, but, I'm not sure it has been "tested" like this, at least in my lifetime which makes it interesting to see what will happen.laxwyo wrote:If you know anything about Wyoming's caucus system, the party leaders in Cheyenne hold most of the power just like in the national party conventionragtimejoe1 wrote:I would guess that they would have to put someone in who didn't run (Romney?

Last time there was a contested GOP convention was 1976 between Ford and Reagan.
I can't believe that no one is talking about how you are being taken over by the globalists.
Read Drudge articles.
Look at AJ vids from today's playlist. I watched a couple like this one.

Suggesting people should be talking about something and then posting a video of someone as idiotic as Alex Jones is not going to move the masses, especially on this board. Mr. Jones is either a blowhard looking to benefit off of those that are too unintelligent to think for themselves, or is truly an ignorant simpleton. This is a guy that thinks the US government is behind the Oklahoma city bombing and 9/11. Even if the points he makes regarding the election have some basis in fact, they are tainted by the fact that he is discussing them.
I may watch the new Dinesh D'Souza movie coming out in July "Hillary's America".

He is supposed to show how the Democratic Party is the party of the KKK, slavery, enslavement, Indian Removal, Trail of Tears, broken treaties, segregation, Jim Crow, lynching, Japanese Internment and other things like opposing the Civil Right Act of 1964, the Voting Rights Act of 1965 and the Fair Housing Bill of 1968.
One of my uncles by marriage was a politician who was murdered when he wasn't going to go along with the criminals. Then other things happened. I've toured the world. I can see what's happening with a lot of things.

The title of the thread is ELECTION. It's not really an election if the citizens don't get to vote. Coloradans didn't vote in the primary there. Other states citizens aren't getting to vote in the primaries either. That's what I was surprised about but I learned something about the numbers of people who are concerned about that or not.
I got to vote in the primary and I think my vote counted the way I voted. Others voted in their primaries and their votes got switched. Now people are not getting to vote in some states.
Blode mus!
AJ is not my favorite guy for sure and he is not the only person on his show. I like some of the other people on the show. AJ is the American English speaking person I listen to sometimes. He is saying the same things that I'm hearing people from many other nations in Europe and Australia say about their situations with their governments and losses of freedoms. Some of the guys I'm listening to about what's going on are under threat for their lives. For one example the Scotsman I listen to cannot go to the Netherlands (and other places) without guards because he is targeted for beheading.
AJ is talking here to a guy named Chuck Untersee who has a movie coming out this weekend in the Houston area. It's called REVELATION: DAWN OF GLOBAL GOVERNMENT. I will watch it when I get a chance.
