Convention Roll Call A Fraud

To all those Hillary supporters out there and delegates who think that maybe by chance the Obama camp may play fair, LOL. You are being lied to and taken for suckers.

On Friday, August 8th, the Obama campaign confirmed that the floor vote in Denver, intended to passify Clinton supporters still upset over Sen. Clintons narrow loss, will be conducted as a state-by-state roll call. Under proposed convention bylaws, delegates would be forced to register their votes on a tally sheet with the convention secretary — however the rules could be altered or suspended before the start of the convention.

In other words, if it looks like Hillary may be gaining ground or could possibly win the vote will be ended.

SOme of the major concerns of represenatives is totally arrogant. “By putting her name in nomination, you're putting people on the spot,” said former delegate counter Matt Seyfang, adding a second potential drawback: “Having a roll call ... just chews into your broadcast time.” Oh my what a shame. To think broadcast time may be used up. Air time showing the world how democracy works is not broadcast worthy?

Obama spokesman Bill Burton said the “mechanics” of the roll call vote are still being worked out, but he conceded that Clinton probably will garner many votes on the first ballot.

But not to worry you loyal supporters of Obama. Obama’s decision to accept a roll call vote, which came after weeks of talks with the Clinton camp, doesn’t mean he’ll let the process get out of hand, observers say. Meaning that he will do all things possible to prevent anything or anyone from takeing away his self annointed canadicy.

“The convention is about nominating Barack, so his people want to speed through the vote as fast as possible so it won’t take too much TV time,” said a Democratic delegate who plans to vote for Clinton. “They also want to avoid a scenario where she’s leading at any point.”

That statement is back up by certain delegates being called and striped of thier de
delegate status. Why because they still support Hillary over Obama.

Some Clinton backers are reluctant to reverse course for fear of angering their black constituents. While others lack any faith in thier own constituants who supported hillary once and fromed such groups as PUMA. These represenatives and delegates have fallen into the pressurized Obama camp.

“It’s a bizarre strategy,” said one Democratic strategist of the roll call. “It could backfire and show that her influence is waning. Chances are, she’s not going to have as many delegates vote for her on the floor as she had in the primary.”

A longtime Clinton adviser said it was “crazy” to guess at numbers but estimated that the former first lady would garner between 600 and 1,200 delegates — considerably short of the approximately 1,800 she had collected at the time of her departure from the race in early June.

Bottom line is this. The leftist powers that be, Pelosi, Kennedy, Ried, that racist Howard Dean. All would rather sell this country out to foriegn intersts and money to maintain their base of power in government. By electing and backing a man who's only knowledge of the white house comes from a tour he once took. haveing no experiance on a national level (146 days does not make you experianced. Ask Gov. Bill Ritter. He thinks 18 months as a state Govenor still isn't enough time). Absolutely no concept of international negotiations or diplomacy other then appeasement.

If as a democrat and Hillary supporter, you believce in her. I HIGHLY suggest that you make your phone hot and heavy. Call your delegates and represenatives. Demand they do the right thing and allow an HONEST, total floor vote. Not just some show of apparent voteing. Demand that they do a legal and binding floor vote.

Remember its the dems who keep claiming they represent the little people, but with Obama do they really?
