Hello all,
MANY THINK I AM LEAVING FOR GOOD? I never said that i just need to get my finances straight again and i will be back in from time to time but for now i will not be able to dedicate the time for the remaining states on educating those people on their delegate process and what they can and can't do they will just need to figure it out on their own.
If they can not there is not much i can do about it for now until i get my finances straight again but i hope they can and i would hope you people would help them.
I do understand most of you have no clue about Parliamentary procedure and that is where i am strong but they will just have to do the best they can until i can come back and spend more time.
My finances have suffered due to my countless hours being spent here trying to educate as many as possible.
Now it is time for me to go back to my business to which i also consult to make extra money. I have spent over 3 months here and spent thousands calling people nation wide even when i was out of the country and it is toexpensive to continue.
My business deals in marketing but if the retail market doesn't respond due to our current recssion then that means my buyers do not buy marketing if their profits are not there for them and this has hurt.
I let a few people know about this about 2 weeks ago and they said they wanted to start a chip in to help me pay my phone bills but i refused because this was never about the money with me and i believed that if a chip in was done it would destroy my credibility for all that you and I have done. Look at the great success we have had in many states MO, WA, TX, NV, so i know all my expense was not for nothing and for that i am thankful but i can no longer spend thousands a month at this point i wish i could but i can't, do it any longer.
I believe my job is done here anyway and it is now up to you folks to continue the fight and turn the system inside out like i have tried to show you.
Rules of order and Parliamentary procedure is your greatest tool besides just showing up to your conventions. So learn it live it and do it.
I will try and pop in from time to time and say hi but until i get my finances back in order i can not continue like this, so go get it done people you can do it i know you can.
You people are fantastic and i appreciate all of you and what you have done to fight and turn around this country and change your party platforms.
People have my email address and i will check them from time to time as well and will try to help when i can in the future.
I will continue through this week and do the 2 radio shows on friday and then i am off.
Once i get my finances back in order i will be back.
GOOD LUCK EVERYONE

I predict....
that Dr. Steve will come back soon.......
See, I was right! ;)
He will come again.
"And then they shall look for me, and, behold, I will come; and they shall see me in the clouds of heaven, clothed with power and great glory; with all the holy angels; and he that watches not for me shall be cut off."
General Parent is doing his part!
WE shall mint a coin in his honor.
Don't forget to Caucus even if you have no plans to be a delegate, we need to vote for our delegates!
And for all the McCain ninjas out there, we will emerge at the National convention!

I prefer General Parent to Doctor Parent
BS = Bullshit
MS = More of the Same
PhD = Piled higher and Deeper
General Steve has merit above and beyond these masonry titles!

Jesus... I mean SGP...
You will be terribly missed by your loyal followers. If you ever really leave.
To answer your question to me, I've done more than my share, albeit a far cry from your turning the water into wine.
Here's a question for you... what is your PhD in? Do you really have one? If so, then what is your native language? It ain't English!

thanks for all
Remember to inform your buyers why the current recession is happening and what Dr Paul has to say about it. It is now time to reach the rest of Americans not just republicans. The apathetic, scared 50% of the population. Thanks for helping the "choir" but it is time to spread the Banking problem message to business men. WAKE THEM UP and make some money doing it.
I have and they are coming
I have and they are coming around more so every day.

LOL... Brer Rabbit
Oh please don't throw me in that briar patch!
$6K for phone bills to other RPers?? Oh please don't send me any money!
I see that many people here are grateful and perhaps "Dr." Steve educated "thousands" here, but I'd be a lot more appreciative if there was less patting himself on the back, less martyrdom, and less pretense of higher education by this guy.
Just my 2 fiat cents. Go ahead, hate me for it.

How can we miss you if you
How can we miss you if you never leave?? :-D
I think i was clear i am
I think i was clear i am gone on friday for a while
Dr. Steve Parent
So why the big thread if
So why the big thread if you're still here for counsel? Just curious.
I wanted to let everyone
I wanted to let everyone know why i had to leave for a while is that a problem?
If i actually left and didn't tell anyone what would that do to the thousands i encouraged to stay and fight? They would think i quit and that would destroy all i have spent and worked on and then it would have been for nothing.
I don't want to leave for a bit i have to there is a difference.
Dr. Steve Parent
"If i actually left and
"If i actually left and didn't tell anyone what would that do to the thousands i encouraged to stay and fight? They would think i quit and that would destroy all i have spent and worked on and then it would have been for nothing."
Yeah, but you're only going to be gone for one day, right? I mean, a vacation I could see. I dunno. Doesn't matter.
More like 3 or 4 weeks maybe
More like 3 or 4 weeks maybe longer as long as it takes.
Why do you even care?
Dr. Steve Parent
Sorry for asking
I didn't realize we couldn't have civil conversation. That's what I get for trying, I guess.
Oh well ... I quit. Good luck with your stuff.
PAT MYSELF ON THE BACK?I
PAT MYSELF ON THE BACK?
I refused the chip because this was never about money for me EVER.
I should of watched my cell phone bill while i was out of the country but i will say i appreciate the offer from the people that wanted to do it.
Let me ask you something? What have you done to educate the people on how to win this election?
Have you become a delegate?
What meetup group are you from?
As i have said many times if someone could help me explain this process i wouldn't be in this situation.
Dr. Steve Parent
Thank you, Dr. Parent!
Thank you, Dr. Parent!

Have you given any thought to becoming a paid campaign manager for Ron Paul or a Ron Paul Republican candidate?
Maybe you could help run the Liberty PAC.
I have not even considered
I have not even considered that and am still not considering it until after this election.
You and many other have brought it up before but for now i have one focus to get everyone educated and attempt to get Dr. Paul the nomination in September.
Dr. Steve Parent
Since you happen to be here now

we have some specific issues in New Jersey. They aren't taking many chances here (the NJGOP) as far as the state convention goes. Our delegates will have to throw Wilson out as the chairman to get anything done.
We will have to pass a resolution retroactively changing the rules set at the July GOP meeting, and I guess somehow that the pledge we took when submitting our petitions is somehow unbound. This is going to be tricky. Any tips?
The only way you can
The only way you can actually toss him out would be 2 ways by majority of the vote or by cause.
I have not looked througly at your bylaws but you need to look for reason to remove the chair in your bylaws and let me know what it states then i can guide you properly.
Depending on what your bylaws state you may need to ammend them first then vote him out.
Dr. Steve Parent
yes
Fortune Favors the Bold
since our primary isn't till June, and our convention in august, I will have time to study. I will also be hosting a mock convention at my venue for our people. It will take alot of work and tough maneuvering to do anything in New Jersey.
Hi Steve
One piece of advice. Please advise more stealth to the Nationals. We need to be good at lying about lying.
Go McCain! I'm not bound.
"Walls are stronger than the men that defend them."
Khan
That is the first thing i do
That is the first thing i do on every show now.
People need to follow my strategy and we will be successful instead of trying to force their views on people that are not willing to listen.
Dr. Steve Parent
But I like the Ron Paul conservative folks.
I just believe we gotta fight wars because I work for a military contractor and I want a raise.
"Walls are stronger than the men that defend them."
Khan
And at the convention
Sorry, I gotta vote for Ron Paul. If I vote for McCain God told me he would strike me dead.
"Walls are stronger than the men that defend them."

nice example... + CA delegate info..

Khan, master of saying much with few words.
Stealth...good point that cannot be emphasized enough.

Thank you Dr. Steve!
Good luck, make lots of dough, and see you back on the board real soon.

Inquiring email I recently wrote regarding CA delegates:
Do you know if it's at all still possible to become
a California delegate or an alternate delegate?
Some of us at the dailypaul aren't having any luck
and would like to change that!
Response:
The delegates are locked in already but what you can do is run for county central committee positions in your district. It just so happens we are coordinating a project here in CA to get as many RP supporters as possible into these positions.
Give me a call and I can fill you in.
VM
Oooooh -- Pick Me!!!
(raising hand like Horshack in "Welcome Back Kotter")
I have been trying to get involved with the CA delegate process, but it's been like trying to make sense of "Jabberwocky" and attempting to summon Lewis Carroll from the grave to make sense of it for you.
Read the CA By-Laws: huh? What? Could it be more convoluted??
Call the GOP...wait by the phone for a return call...watch the cobwebs grow...
Aaaarghhh!
Who is this "VM" person (you, Photoshopwiz?), and how can I get involved in the county central committee project? I can be reached via email through my contact info here on DP!
I KNEW it was you or someone else...
~
who expressed frustration and interest! yeah, I conveyed that when I wrote this lady. You can click on my name, and hit the contact tab to shoot me an email...and I will email you, since you said you also can be reached.
I don't like to publish people's names without their permission. I've left her two phone messages, and as soon as I get the info, I'll let you know. If I don't hear from you, I will post info within this thread.
You will be missed
Thank you for everything. We learned a lot from you.
Thank you!
You have really made a huge difference with all your time and help!
I don't know who to attribute this quote but here ya go!
“It is not the critic that counts, not the man who points out how a strong man stumbled, or the doer of deeds could have done better.
The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena; whose
face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly;
who errs and comes up short again and again; who knows the great
enthusiasms, the great devotions and spends himself in a worthy
cause; who at best knows in the end the triumph of high
achievement; and who at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while
daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and
timid souls who know neither victory or defeat.”
All tyranny needs to gain a foothold is for people of good conscience to remain silent" Thomas Jefferson
Thanks, Steve!
All your hard work and good advice are greatly appreciated.
Much gratitude
Thank you for all the education you have given us. We will anticipate your return.
Life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.
Thanks you
For your time and wisdom, sorry to see you go but I understand. Hey, ever try Skype.com? You could use their "Live" chat rooms for conferencing.
If you get bored that is...
Again Dr. Thank you! Stay close please!
Long Live the good Doctors!
gair
Thank you for all you have done !!
And for giving of yourself like you have.
So long...
I won't miss you.
Ron Paul 2008!
you should ask DR.Steve
how to help your condition! Ask him for the cure for "Rectal Cranial Inversion", then you might appreciate his wisdom.
Sorry people but I had to help him, he claims to be a RP supporter...
So if I like Steve Parent and his tactics,
then I must be a Ron Paul supporter.
If I don't like Steve Parent, I must have my head up my a**.
It never used to be this way around here. And Dr. Paul certainly would not promote lying at either the District or National levels. I am an RP supporter. I just don't like what SGP has brought to the table. I think he's a control freak, and I wish Michael would have banned him long ago. And now I'm supposed to feel bad for him because he's mismanaged his time and money? It doesn't work that way. It amazes me that you guys would even think of starting a chipin for this guy.
Ron Paul 2008! Yeah, that's Ron Paul, not Steve Parent!
you'll never get it
miss his wisdom, get educated on how this thing works,,,thats what he is doing... never mind... and yes the more you post the more there is proof of you condition....just ask him for help....It's not about "like Sp" its about wisdom...
forgive me good people,,,,these kinds of supporters really rub me the wrong way...
this was for eyeswideopen
I wont miss you,,,,,his comment.....which showed his medical problem.
never mind
Sorry agin
No apology necessary.
No apology necessary. Thanks.
I'm sorry, but if that was
I'm sorry, but if that was directed at me I'm not getting your point.
I've noticed...
.. that if there is a comment with a chain of sub-replies, when it gets split across pages it throws out the hierarchy until the entire chain makes it to the next page.
But, then again, this chain is still on page 1. So, "nevermind". =P
witheyeswideopen,
I partially agree with you.
I hesitated to post this, because I'm sure I'll get tons of static for it, but what can you do, I guess? *sigh*
Anyway, I have felt the same way as you in that it seems as though if you question something related to this issue in any way, suddenly you are anti-Ron Paul or anti-victory or anti-SGP etc. etc. SGP and I have managed to have some civil discussions on here as of late, but I've found myself biting my tongue quite often and not posting simply due to the fact I'm tired of being labeled as some sort of detriment to the movement. I just wish we could have open discussion and debate again -- which means you have the right to ask questions -- without being branded as a traitor to the cause, almost.
That's all I have to say on this.
I don't think being discrete is the same thing as lying
Fortune Favors the Bold
I wouldn't advise lying either, but politics requires representation.
I think, for example, Ron Paul knows about alot of things that he does not talk about much in public.
I actually appreciate people
I actually appreciate people considering a chip in that was very kind.
I do not care if you like me that is your choice. I do not want anyone to feel bad for me, I am a big boy and can take care of myself.
What did i bring to the table? Edcuating thousands on how to win at their conventions? Explaining rules of order? Getting them to register to become delegates. SHAME ON ME for being such a bad person bringing those things to the table.
Dr. Steve Parent
Thank you very much.
You have made a really great contribution here.
Thank you.
Steve, thanks for everything
You have truly been an in-definable asset to our movement. Good Luck. Will talk at you later once you are back and $$ moneyed-up $$.
