THE dilemma involving the Republican Central Committee and the Precinct IV members is causing so much confusion and chaos. Gentlemen, time is running out fast and you have nine laps to go before November. Allow me to dialogue with you on a mutual ground and present you with facts.
A democracy exists only when it represents the will of the majority. That is the most fundamental basis of a democracy for without support it loses its only legitimate source of power to rule. This basic fundamental principle cannot be compromised.
When a precinct club calls an official meeting of its members and in that meeting nominated and elected the candidates on a free and open election, those candidates legally become the precinct’s legitimate candidates. Subsequently, the proper procedure would be for the Central Committee to officially recognize those candidates. To deny the candidates’ official recognition is a violation of the democratic rule.
This bad situation is made worse when the Central Committee further attempts to dictate to the precinct club who they should choose as their candidates. This predicament is a clear indication that the Central Committee may have questionable and conflicting motives and is willing to suspend the majority will to advance its own hidden agenda. That, unfortunately, is the formula for defeat. Thank you and ghilisool.
