Will GOP convention rules prevent anyone who does not half the delegates from 8 state
I read the below link on redstate which I interpreted as no one can win the nomination (under current rules) unless they come to the convention with at least the majority of the delegates in 8 or more states.

For example if only Trump shows up with that (even if less that 50% of total, then he is the only one who can win. Or if Trump and someone else shows up then the nominee has to be one of thise 2?

With all the talk of a brokered convention, I was thinking anyone could walk out with the nomination.

These "rules" are created before delegates are seated. That rule was created before delegates were seated in 2012 to keep Ron Paul from challenging the nomination that year. The GOP will most likely change these rules before they seat delegates for 2016.

it's a shame Ford didn't get his chance...and the real o-fer was Reagan.....

Nixon started all of this shite when you drive it down....the residual of incarceration and wealth division started there.....

I'm not gonna write a dissertation, but I challenge ANYONE to argue against....

edit: it's a boomer issue....and they are now dying.....how you fkrs don't see this is beyond me....it's a simple numbers game....
