Malia Zimmerman of Hawaii Reporter - 2008 State GOP Convention Video Wrapup: interviews with party chairman, party delegate and inside convention footage of platform non-discussion and non-debate
They should've followed Robt Rules of Order & given at least a couple from each side the right to debate before voting, but they railroaded it through.
It's like a dictatorship at these GOP conventions.
Clearly, those that did not support the leadership were ignorant of Robert's Rules of Order (which ANY convention, Dem, GOP, Libertarian, etc. follows).
If they weren't satisfied with the "show of hands" vote, they should have asked for a roll call. This is their right, and would clear up once and for all who had the majority.
Um dont mean to be critical but we are in a Constitutional Republic and Democracy is the whole problem we are encountering. Democracy gives no individual rights, the majority rule so its easy to claim majority and force dictatorship upon the individuals. He mentioned constitutional democracy please its important to understand and get that right.
