Finally, Dr. Paul will be in Missouri, and even though it's a distance from St Louis, we need to show him how much we honor his efforts to bring about the change we know is needed in America. We need to show him that we are still behind him; and even though the Republican party in Missouri has done their utmost to squelch our efforts to become involved, having challenged over 300 of our properly elected delegates to the State Convention (apparently on the basis that they are bad Republicans because they support Ron Paul), we need to stay involved and make them aware that America is way to important to us for us to be deterred by their dictatorial, lawlesss, non-egalitarian approach to the political process. We have a message to send to Ron and to them.

This is the time to be vigilant, to be persistent, to make new friends of Republicans who also believe that ever-burgeoning government will lead to the collapse of America as we know it. It's time to send a message loud and clear. We need your help to do it. We need you to go and be there!!! Call Laura 314-469-2730 about ride shares and lodging. RSVP and offer others rides and/or housing if you can.

Schedule:
6:00 doors open--the venue holds 2600! www.trilakescenter.com
7:00 Ron Paul speaks!

followed by music--a band that has played for other RP events
1:30-5:30 or so: There will be a barbecue picnic--bring a side dish if desired-- at the shelter in Table Rock State Park. It'll be a great chance to relax and meet other patriots from around the state, and will continue all afternoon, staring around 1:30 Friday.


NOTE: All who want to attend Missouri State Republican Convention can go to this site to register: http://www.mogop.org/... The deadline for registration is passed, but if you are a delegate or alternate, all you do is show up very early Saturday morning to check in. There is no fee. If you have questions, please call. Guests will also be allowed, probably on a first come first serve basis. And we can use all the help we can get communicating to other delegates about real Republican values, and dispelling their fears about Ron Paulers being disruptive. We are supporters of the Republican convention/caucus process, and we are looking forward to participating in a convention that is productive and instructive.

NOTE: The Republican Convention is on Saturday May 31st. You should have received notification if you are a delegate or alternate. Please call Laura at 314-469-2730 (St Louis land line--NOT A CELL) if you have not or if you have ANY additional questions. If you wish to be a guest, show up early on Saturday morning. We have been told that guests will be allowed. There may be space restrictions, so arrive early.

Who attended?

    •  Unless its a family reunion, I never see so many familiar faces. Thank you all. Each familiar face that I see from this group represents HOPE to me. I am so envious of the delegates, no matter how it turns out. There was such a sense of application as I watched the groups gather after the speech. It's 10:00 A.M. right now, Sat. morn. I'm with you in spirit! 
    •  It was amazing. Words cannot describe it. 
    • Robyn (+3 guests)
       We were about 40 people short from being able to make a difference. 
    • Allan Trick (+1 guest)
       Are you kidding? It was AWESOME!!! Dr. Paul is one of the best thinkers of our time. He expresses his message clearly, has unlimited patience (shaking hands and signing all those hundreds of books afterwards), and is giving people real hope for the future. 
    •  Great speaker!
