Wheels coming off in Ron Paul Land
Posted: Wed Sep 12, 2012 1:39 am
Yesterday on the dailypaul, sandwiched between 9/11 truther links, is a resignation letter from Jesse Benton. Jesse Benton is Ron Paul's grand son-in-law and the Paulbots place most of the blame for Ron Paul's failed campaign on him.
08/26/2012 VIDEO: Jesse Benton calls Grassroots ran PaulFestival "A Fringe Element", wishes it would go away. Peter Schiff reads a text message from Jesse Benton to Paul Festival Organizer Deborah Robinet. The text proves that Jesse Benton of the Ron Paul campaign intentionally sabotaged Paul Festival and the Ron Paul supporters who organized it.
09/11/2012Jesse Benton resigns.

If you've ever had the pleasure to meet or talk to Jesse Benton, you'd know how much of a rotten person he is. You can practically smell the evil on him. Good luck dude, I hope Romney hooks you up.

ever earned as a congressman? - Somewhere around $500,000 + in 2 years? For a grassroots organization that's not cool. And as campaign manager for Ron Paul 2012? That was baffling, he did such a poor job. So much so- that he you'd think he was working the other side. Perhaps he was scared of Mitt Romney. If you can't stand the heat get out of the kitchen.

Jesse, this resignation is at least four months too late...

Now, can we get at least a partial refund of the $600k+ we (unwittingly) contributed to your personal bank account? You know, the money you solicited for a "winning" campaign, right through that fateful week in May when you killed it with one of your poisoned press releases?
I gotta give you credit. Your timing was impeccable. I max'ed out my contributions right before you delivered that fatal blow. You've got a real talent for grifting. I only wish I hadn't been so gullible.

Here are a couple of things Jesse Did

You judge for yourself if he did it to help or hinder the campaign. He gave the RNC written permission to fund Romney's campaign months before the convention which was supposed to decide who the nominee was. (that was a clear violation of the RNC Rules)He also said over the press we would not win the nomination a couple of months before the convention. He said we would not have enough delegates or could not keep Romney from getting 1144 delegates when we were building steam. Someone else please chime in and give some more examples of his dirty work.
