Freedomorsafety: I was there too and agree 100%. As soon as they realized Ron Paul delegates were winning they abruptly ended the convention rather than allow an honest vote.

jfnace: You are missing the whole point. At the causus Paul may have gotten 14%, McCain about 13%, and Romney about 50%. (Going by memory here.) I don't see Romney supporters whining like you are. I don't care who you vote for, but it's our right as Americans to vote. That right was taken away from us at the convention by a very unethical Bob Beers. Whether a delegate wants to vote for McCain, Paul, Romney, Huckabee, or Jeb Bush, that right was taken away from us, and many people went to large expense and investment of their time to get to Reno for the convention.

I hope you'll be intelligent and honest enough to retract your statement about Ron Paul people whining about the caucus numbers from last January. Everyone who attended the convention should be outraged by what happened. Including you.

To quote Bernie Zadrowski,
Chairman, Clark County Republican Party

"The contract indicated that the room had been reserved until 5 p.m., and as there was still many hours of work that needed to be done, the decision was made by the State Party Leadership to recess the meeting to another time. As a result we failed to elect delegates to the national convention."

The 5:00 p.m. deadline for the room was never mentioned by the chairman, Senator Bob Beers, and without explanation he abruptly ended the convention a few minutes before 5:00 p.m. It was only after he left that the attendee's became aware of the deadline.

Why did Bob Beers keep the information to himself rather than announcing the fact at the beginning of the convention? Why did he show a film of Newt Gingrich and invite a speaker to address the convention in the afternoon when there was so much work to be done?

The answer is either gross incompetence on the part of Bob Beers or an underhanded, unethical dirty trick because it was clear that Ron Paul supporters outnumbered John McCain supporters, and Bob Beers didn't want to allow a vote for national delegates in Nevada.

Whether it was incompetence or a dirty trick, Senator Bob Beers undermined the people's right to vote, and I call for his impeachment from office.

A large number of people devoted their time and spent money travelling from Las Vegas and rural Nevada to Reno for the state convention, because they cared enough about this country to take part in the voting process.

I weep for this country, because I witnessed first-hand the fact that we are no longer a Constitutional Republic. Bob Beers and others like him have destroyed what this country once stood for.

Personally, I will vote for Ron Paul all the way, even if it means a write-in vote.
