Read these and the EMail below. GET READY!!
Subject: FROM Kurt
All of you folks have distribution lists, so I'm asking you to get back to me and tell me if you're willing to support initiatives to ensure an honest and accurate vote count in Iowa. You have my email address.
Here's my article on The New American Online:
http://www.thenewamerican.com/usnews/politics/10342--is-the-cure-for-disruption-threat-at-iowa-caucuses-worse-than-the-threat
I see two dangers in what's going on:
Using "security" to implement paper ballots that are counted in secret or otherwise tampered with, and
Using "security" to implement police control points and stifle the Ron Paul people by threatening to accuse them of being disruptive.
I checked the Iowa Republican Party's web site. It looks like they'll be requiring paper ballots for the Presidential vote (This may be a change. I didn't see it last week when I wrote the TNA article above.), but there are no methods listed to protect the vote from ballot box stuffing, ahead of time or after, or to ensure the ballots are counted on site, in public, and immediately after being cast.
http://iowagop.org/caucus/process.php
I think what we need is an agenda. Instead of waiting until 7:00 PM on January 3rd and being surprised by whatever procedures are being thrown at us, let's try to proactively get the Iowa GOP to add the following electoral safeguards to the 2012 Caucuses. We'll need to contact Iowa GOP members and ask them to initiate these ahead of time or at the caucuses.
Honest and Accurate Vote Count Initiative:
In order to protect the Iowa Caucuses from electoral fraud and from being disrupted by external organizations, we adopt the following security procedures:
If this caucus location has traditionally used a show of hands for voting, that will be the primary method for the 2012 caucus as well.
If this caucus decides to vote via paper ballots, the ballots must not be removed from the premises until after they have been counted in public immediately after being cast, in the presence of the people who cast them, and with an opportunity for representatives of the candidates to challenge.
There will be no restrictions on the use of video or audio recording devices. In order to reconstruct caucus results if such reconstruction becomes necessary, video and audio recording of the final announcements of the vote totals by as many people as possible will be encouraged.
WHY Only Paul and Romney Qualify in Virginia for Primary
http://targetfreedom.com/ron-paul/why-only-paul-and-romney-qualify-in-virginia-for-primary/
Gingrich and Perry fail to qualify for Va. primary ballot. Bachmann, Santorum and Huntsman did not even try to qualify?
WHEN THE ONLY SUPPORTERS THAT A CANDIDATE HAS ARE BANKERS, CORPORATIONS, LOBBYISTS, AND ELECTRONIC VOTE COUNTING MACHINES IT IS HARD TO MEET A REQUIREMENT FOR SIGNATURES ON PETITIONS. WHAT THE NEOCON BANKERS, CORPORATIONS, AND LOBBYISTS WILL DO NOW IS TO USE BACK ROOM DEALS, MONEY, AND POWER TO CIRCUMVENT THE WILL OF THE PEOPLE, AND TO CHANGE THE LAW, SO THAT THE SHILLS CAN GET INTO THE ELECTRONIC VOTE COUNTING MACHINES.
Virginia is approximately 10% of the Super Tuesday Vote so that is a significant number. Does this not explain WHY Ron Paul is electable, WHY he CAN Win; And WHY Gingrich, Perry, Bachmann, Santorum and Huntsman are NOT electable and CAN'T win? YES VIRGINIA, THE PEOPLE WANT TO BE FREE.
(12-24) 17:41 PST WASHINGTON (AP) --
Republican presidential hopeful Newt Gingrich failed to qualify for Virginia's Super Tuesday primary ballot, the latest setback for a candidate whose standing in polls has been slipping. Gingrich's campaign said he would pursue an aggressive write-in campaign, though state law prohibits write-ins on primary ballots.
Romney's team, larger than those of most of his opponents, has paid close attention to filing requirements in each state. He will appear on the Virginia ballot along with Texas Rep. Ron Paul, who also has run a national campaign before.
Three other candidates — Minnesota Rep. Michele Bachmann, former Pennsylvania Sen. Rick Santorum and former Utah Gov. Jon Huntsman — did not submit signatures before Virginia's deadline of 5 p.m. Thursday.
Gingrich's campaign attacked Virginia's primary system on Saturday, saying that "only a failed system" would disqualify Gingrich and other candidates and vowing to run a write-in campaign.
"Voters deserve the right to vote for any top contender, especially leading candidates," Gingrich campaign director Michael Krull said in a statement. "We will work with the Republican Party of Virginia to pursue an aggressive write-in campaign to make sure that all the voters of Virginia are able to vote for the candidate of their choice."
However, according to state law, "No write-in shall be permitted on ballots in primary elections."
"Virginia code prohibits write-ins in primaries. He can't do it," said Carl Tobias, a law professor at University of Richmond.
Virginia GOP spokesman Garren Shipley said in a statement that volunteers spent Friday validating signatures on petitions that Romney, Paul, Perry and Gingrich had submitted. "After verification, RPV has determined that Newt Gingrich did not submit required 10k signatures and has not qualified for the VA primary," the party announced early Saturday on its Twitter feed.
Gingrich already missed the deadline to appear on the ballot in Missouri's Feb. 7 primary, though he insists it doesn't matter because the state awards delegates based not on the primary but on a Republican caucus held in March.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:
Ron Paul Slides into Top Tier - Wins Debate by Telling Iowans -- and America -- the Truth
AMES, IOWA - August 11, 2011 - Thomas Woods - Once again, Ron Paul distinguished himself in a Republican presidential debate by telling Americans the truth, answering the questions he was asked, and refusing to treat his countrymen like ten-year-olds who should be spoken to in bumper-sticker slogans.
On the economy, everyone talked about lower taxes, cutting spending, and a balanced budget - the usual boilerplate. Only Ron Paul sought to explain why we have recessions in the first place. Only Ron Paul mentioned the critical role of the Federal Reserve System in blowing up the bubbles that have popped in America over the past decade. Only Ron Paul explained that the monetary system we have, whereby money can be created out of thin air whenever the political class wants it, is a recipe for the very kind of disaster we are living through right now.
To be sure, former House Speaker Newt Gingrich had some critical words for particular Fed policies, but surely his recent criticism of the Fed is one of the exceedingly rare times, if not the only time, he has made serious mention of the Federal Reserve in over three decades in public life.
The only reason any of them will even talk about the Fed is Ron Paul, who took the issue from the depths of obscurity and turned it into a live issue for the first time in the nearly one hundred years of the Fed's existence.
But where Congressman Paul really stood out, of course, was in foreign policy. He dismissed the comments of the neoconservative former U.S. Senator Rick Santorum as "war propaganda," which indeed Senator Santorum can be relied upon to parrot at every opportunity. He explained that the history of U.S. relations in Iran did not begin with the hostage crisis in 1979, as Senator Santorum tried to pretend. It began with the U.S./British coup in 1953 that brought the oppressive shah to power, and it was resentment over his police state that turned Iranians against the U.S. Before the U.S. government's interventions in the Middle East, Americans had an excellent reputation in that part of the world - another piece of history our political class ignores.
Our delicate ears are not supposed to hear the kinds of things Ron Paul told Americans tonight. We're supposed to hear "USA! USA!" We are supposed to be flattered, told our leaders have infallible judgment, and urged to believe that anyone who questions that judgment, or who thinks anyone around the world might have a legitimate grievance against the American political class, "hates America." Given how many grievances we Americans have with our political class, is it really so hard to imagine that other people might, too?
Everyone on the stage wanted to talk about budgets, but only Ron Paul pointed out that the wars are costing trillions of dollars, with a sixth war being seriously contemplated. This is pure insanity, and the only person who will level with the American people about it is Ron Paul.
It's hard to imagine one person being so consistently and thoroughly vindicated as Congressman Paul. On the economy in particular, he has been warning for decades about the certain outcome of our monetary system and economic policies. The world is now beginning to undergo the exact convulsions he predicted would result.
Ron Paul is the only person on that stage who has the slightest grasp of what is happening in America and around the world right now. All they can do is repeat GOP talking points. Ron Paul knows the economics and the history inside and out.
Dr. Paul, who is often too humble even to say "I," rarely points out in such a setting that he, along among the candidates on stage, had been so prophetic about all this. That is where Revolution PAC comes in. We're not humble at all. We intend to brag about Ron Paul like crazy. It is a scandal that Americans could even consider another candidate when a man of the intelligence and integrity of Ron Paul stands before them. He alone told us what was coming. He alone can point the way to a better future for America.
Dr. Paul's prophetic words about the economic breakdown we are living through may be the best kept secret in America. At Revolution PAC, we refuse to keep it that way. Please help us spread the message! http://revolutionpac.com/superbomb
