Join the local protests against the unfair voting practices of the Republican convention! Ron Paul's votes were not mentioned and the RNC instead used Ryan's name as a cover up.
Ron Paul's supporters are also organizing a rally on the National Mall.
TAMPA, Fla. -- A divided Republican Party was on full display Tuesday when Rep. Ron Paul's (R-Texas) supporters and other grassroots activists loudly booed House Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio) on the first full day of the Republican National Convention.
The fight was over the unglamorous rules process that dictates how delegates are apportioned in each state. Paul didn't sweep the ballot boxes in state caucuses and primaries, but his supporters quietly worked behind the scenes in an effort to take control of state parties and delegate assignments
