None. However, if Paul wants to use his influence at the convention then he's going to get concessions at some point. Virtually nothing will be guaranteed. Do you expect him to win at the convention?

Except I didn't say it was just for a speaking role. It's also for his son's future in the GOP. Romney may also give him some concessions when it comes to the Fed.

1.) I never said his supporters are going to vote for Romney at the polls in November, they'll vote for Gary Johnson or write-in Paul. 2.) I'm stating my opinion of what I think Paul is going to do. We simply disagree, however you seem to think that only your opinion can be the possibly correct...

If you have such a problem with Koch majority ownership in CATO and influence from that, how can you support the organization when they own 50% with clearly some influence?

Right now I'm using the proportional numbers and assuming Santorum will at least get some delegates from the caucus states he won. I understand that it's not concrete. I've already said straight forward that I may be slightly confused about some of the minor details but I believe I understand...

So you want to stop the Koch Brothers from further owning CATO because they'll influence it more into a GOP 2.0. However, when the dust clears from this, you'll still support a group that is owned 50% by them?

I already saw the video and I understand the process.

This is exactly what I was talking about on page one. I understand the process Paulie, contrary to what you may believe.

You do understand that Charles and David Koch each own 25% of the CATO Institute, correct?

I think you need to calm down, Paulie. I don't think Paul is assuming anything. However, he doesn't hold all the cards in his hands contrary to the belief of some of his supporters. He'll take what he can get and keep the movement going for his son. Like I said before, if Paul tells his...

Right now, no candidate is going to get the magical delegate count number in the first round. Santorum has won a lot of caucus states, so in fact I believe most of his delegates or at least half are unbound. I may be wrong about the process but many if not all bound delegates become...

Paul's campaign is not about getting himself elected at this point, it's about the movement. He would want a prime speaking spot in order to talk about the movement during primetime television. I don't believe for a moment that the GOP establishment will consider and adopt his platform. Any...

It's not like what Paul has been advocating for is radically new. In fact, it's the exact opposite.

I find it interesting how some Libertarians are upset about this but don't see a problem when the Koch Brothers are doing their thing in Wisconsin among other places. Also fairly interesting is how unaware many of them were about the Koch Brothers involvement in CATO already. Also, while I...

Paul has always pandered to that type of crowd. It comes as no surprise that he has a long standing history with The John Birch Society. He's also a guest fairly often on Alex Jones's program.
