Ron Paul's own convention? - First Read - msnbc.com


Return of the old fashioned floor fight?
Here is the first comment listed after the posting on MSNBC's site: "WTF is this about???!!!"

Need I say more?

Ron Paul's anti-interventionist and libertarian supporters are reported to be amassing at Williams Arena a/k/a/ "The Barn" for festivities and challenges during the GOP's national convention at Minneapolis - St. Paul later this Summer.

Do you think the Republicans meeting across town on the same night, while they're announcing the nominee for their vice-president, will be soiling themselves?

Paulian speakers are urging politeness from libertarian anti-war supporters and encouraging the same of the 50 delegates allowed on the War Party convention floor "a couple miles away."

From the post - Paul spokesman Jesse Benton:

"They will attend the Paul convention and the campaign is encouraging them to go to the official GOP convention as 'active and positive.' But, Benton added, Paul's supporters are independent-minded and aren't going to be told what to do. 'They’re free individuals, and they can do what they like,' Benton said. 'We want to send a message to the Republican Party, a message to return to its limited government roots ... common sense foreign policy that is non interventionist, reject the Patriot Act and move back to respecting the Constitution and rule of law.'"

Wonder what the war-mongering oligarchs in the sky-boxes will be hissing and pissing about those below?
