Republican Insider Says: GOP Establishment Planning To Subvert Iowa to Prevent Ron Paul Win

Video - Iowa Vote Fraud & Electioneering

---

Source - Prison Planet

Republican strategist Dee Dee Benkie revealed during a radio show appearance last night that the GOP establishment has resolved to prevent Ron Paul from winning tonight’s Iowa primary by offering sweetheart deals to move large voting blocks to vote for Romney or Santorum.

The host of the show refers to state GOP insiders showing “great concern” that Ron Paul is performing well in Iowa because they fear a Paul win would undermine Iowa’s position as being the first Republican primary. He implies that influential members of the Republican establishment within the state are offering sweetheart deals to prominent voting blocks in key swing districts in order to “sway” the result and ensure Ron Paul doesn’t win.

Despite the fact that this is brazenly unethical and, if bribery was involved, without doubt illegal, the host dismisses such conduct as “just politics”.

“Is it possible that the party apparatus here could be silently asking those District Chairmen to start swaying some important caucus members over to the anti-Paul side which may end up being Santorum…do you see a scenario like that happening,” he asked Benkie.

“I’ve talked to the party officials, I know they’re concerned about it,” said Benkie, adding, “Ron Paul doesn’t do us any good in Iowa, doesn’t do the country any good, will never get there, so let’s figure out what we need to do.”

Benkie said that the GOP establishment was concerned about splitting the vote between Santorum and Romney because it could increase the chances of a Ron Paul win, remarking, “We really don’t want Ron Paul to win.”

“I kind of think they’re going to keep him from getting the number one spot because they are concerned,” said Benkie, adding that the party apparatus were “tight-knit” and “trying to figure out” how to “deal with the Paul-bots,” an arrogant characterization of Ron Paul’s supporters.

“They’re not going to want him to get number one, it’s very bad for Iowa, it’s terrible,” said Benkie, adding that she hopes for her “friends” that Paul is not victorious.

It’s necessary to emphasize the fact that Dee Dee Benkie is by no means decrying the subversion of the Iowa primary. She is openly anti-Paul and is brazenly advocating that he be prevented from winning Iowa by means of establishment insiders exerting undue influence on voters, despite the fact that only last week she was decrying the threat posed by “rampant” voter fraud.

I monitored Iowa's caucus via Jet Blue's free TV feature tonight on my way to LA. The entire thing is a controlled circus not worthy of the Barnum name.

Even crediting Santorum's ludicrous moonshot poll performance in Iowa as remotely real, the theater was just an awful effort to prop up the edifice of U.S. elections.

The highlight was the interview of that cow trapped in the bleachers, who divulged that her vote for Santorum just came to her in the last three days. There was no follow-up question as to what distinguished Santorum from his cookie cutter siblings of his corporate mold. Nor could there be: Santorum will apologize for the bailouts and wars and the other wholly unaffordable circus shows with the rest.

If you watched, you noticed Ron Paul's near-perfect adhesion to a graph of logarithmic decay. Did he not, initially, with 1% of precincts reporting, sport a vote percentage of 49%? That the fix was in couldn't have been more obvious than right there. It was all downhill for RP after that--perfectly downhill, as if out of a bad textbook.

Alas, Revolution it is. I don't really care if it turns out badly.

At least it won't bore me like tonight did.

For me it's Ron Paul or not at all. Either he wins the GOP nomination or I vote for Obama. I don't really like Obama but, would take him over the Mormon or the Frothy Santorum any day.

They'll think of something to smudge him.

Somebody will leak a "story" to Dick Morris who will write that Ron Paul is gay, complete with iphone naked tweet pictures to his boyfriends who hope to smoke their legal pot and are also racists and skinheads hellbent on ruining our awesome economics/foreign policy/war on drugs grand slams.

I think they already tried LOL. This is hilarious.

("Alas, Revolution it is. I don't really care if it turns out badly.")

Cheyenne, all things considered you are probably correct.

It is obvious the Corporate and One Percent parasites have complete control of the electoral process and the government that process puts in place in the United States. That they will use unethical even criminal activities to keep their agendas on track should not surprise anyone. These people have no intention of relinquishing Their control of the Federal Government. And now that the present campaign liar in the White House has signed (National Defense Authorization Act) we are one step closer to an insane roller coaster ride similar to the one Germany and Italy took in the 1930's and 1940's. Didn't work out to well for the German and Italian People as I recall, and it won't work out well here ether.

You can call them whatever you want...elitist, establishment, Illuminati, 1%, etc. The election is already rigged by them. Obama will be re-elected because he's getting their agenda passed while flying under the public's radar. The republican "establishment" will continue to faux attack Obama as some communist trying to "spread the wealth" when he's really further right-wing than Bush 43. It's all a gradual step-by-step process to take us into a global, fascist, totalitarian "New World Order".

Sagebrush, is correct in his opinion of corporate control of American politics. A great book, available at your local library, is called “Gangs of America”. In it, the author tracks the American aversion to any grant of corporate power at the time of the revolution, to the skullduggery of Tom Scott, and later to the actual perverse inclusion of superfluous head-notes in Santa Clara County v. Southern Pacific Railroad and the use of those head-notes to claim 14th amendment rights for corporations. A constitutional amendment is in order to curtail the influence of and the power granted to these corporations. The other area of concern is campaign financing. Do we want truthful candidates or do we want candidates who spout the positions of their benefactors?

I assume all who proclaim voting fraud as the reason their chosen candidate did not triumph will be bringing forth some evidence? Or is it enough in this day and age of Obama type smoke and mirror governance to simply accuse and let the shaddows of doubt poison reality? To those who prefer to have Obama over anyone else, all I can say is you are fools! Paul has some great points to make people pay attention to him, but he does not have the whole package to make him truly electible. In addition, his thoughts on many foreigh policy issues are quite faulty. It is true that the GOP has given us only mediocre choices, but anyone who does not see that Obama policies have truly been a disaster for America is just not paying attention ! There is as much or more corruption in this administration with this president as there has ever been in Washington and there has never been such a divisive president in the history of our country. If you want to give the election to Obama, by taking your football and going home, because your candidate Paul did not win, then so be it. Throw your tantrum, take your ball and go home, You will get what you deserve. However, I for one can afford to live anywhere I want and build businesses where I want. I'll generate a thousand jobs somewhere else rather than here If Obama wins a second term. I and many others will move, take investments, money and businesses to Canada and other countries who are more appreciative and user friendly. A number of others have already begun to do just this very thing. Friends, I am not happy with any GOP choices, but frankly, Obama is over his head, arrogant, incompetent as a leader and my next door neighbor would be a better choice. Hope a lot of people wake up before it is too late!

("I for one can afford to live anywhere I want and build businesses where I want.")

@ Craig
Don't let the door hit you in the butt on your way out and don't bother coming back.

It's not just Obama who is destroying the country with his administration, and it wasn't just Bush doing it with his. Both the major political parties sold their souls to the money crowd long ago. As I said in my earlier comment, It is obvious the Corporate and One Percent parasites have complete control of the electoral process, and the government that process puts in place in the United States. Partisan political bickering about who is fu**ing up the country is meaningless bullcrap. Republican or Democrat they work for the same employers and the american middle class is not on the list.

i bet people are surprised at how angry americans are at this caucus result.

keep in mind iowa has an odd system:
The caucuses are open to registered party voters who will be at least 18 years old by the November general election. Democrats and independents are allowed to crossover to participate in the caucuses. They would have to change their registration to Republican, which is allowed on the day of the event.

you can see where a lot could go wrong with that, couldn't you?

i wouldn't worry yet.

Of course the Republicans rig their primaries, just as the Democrats. Whoever carries water for the political and economic influences get their way, no matter which party is in power. These talking head like O'Rilley need to be thrown off the air and put unbiased reporters on TV. Who cares what their opinions are? How about presenting unbiased facts so people can make honest decisions. That goes for everyone the MSM puts their face on our TVs and other medias everyday.
Sure Ron Paul has some ideas outside the Washington mentality and his record isn't the greatest in his legislation but why would he have success, the things he brings to the table are so against the Washington country club of self serving politicians and their backers who keep them in office to do their bidding, nothing Paul wants for We the People matters to the Washington political system. Oh except at election time and they all tells us how hard they are working for us, if that was so we wouldn't be facing these economic disasters we are currently living though.

At what point do "we" as the American "slug", stand up and prevent any further BS voter fraud? We make these comments and then do nothing to further prevent it!

Now is the time, is the time that is only associated to independence, human rights and so on! Stand up and take a stance!

Good-Bye
Truth Has Fallen and Taken Liberty With It
by PAUL CRAIG ROBERTS
There was a time when the pen was mightier than the sword. That was a time when people believed in truth and regarded truth as an independent power and not as an auxiliary for government, class, race, ideological, personal, or financial interest.

Today Americans are ruled by propaganda. Americans have little regard for truth, little access to it, and little ability to recognize it.

Truth is an unwelcome entity. It is disturbing. It is off limits. Those who speak it run the risk of being branded “anti-American,” “anti-semite” or “conspiracy theorist.”

Truth is an inconvenience for government and for the interest groups whose campaign contributions control government.

Truth is an inconvenience for prosecutors who want convictions, not the discovery of innocence or guilt.

Truth is inconvenient for ideologues.

Today many whose goal once was the discovery of truth are now paid handsomely to hide it. “Free market economists” are paid to sell offshoring to the American people. High-productivity, high value-added American jobs are denigrated as dirty, old industrial jobs. Relicts from long ago, we are best shed of them. Their place has been taken by “the New Economy,” a mythical economy that allegedly consists of high-tech white collar jobs in which Americans innovate and finance activities that occur offshore. All Americans need in order to participate in this “new economy” are finance degrees from Ivy League universities, and then they will work on Wall Street at million dollar jobs.

Economists who were once respectable took money to contribute to this myth of “the New Economy.”

And not only economists sell their souls for filthy lucre. Recently we have had reports of medical doctors who, for money, have published in peer-reviewed journals concocted “studies” that hype this or that new medicine produced by pharmaceutical companies that paid for the “studies.”

Subversion has long been a favored tool of American politics.

There are approximately 48.5 million homes with mortgages in the United States and 10.7 million of them have negative equity. Another 2.4 million have less than 5% equity. Considering it costs more than 5% in closing costs to sell a house that means 27% of home occupiers with a mortgage are trapped like rats in a cage. With 2.2 million foreclosures still in the pipeline and a looming recession, home prices will continue to fall another 10% to 20% over the next two years and one third of all home occupiers will be underwater. That sounds like a recipe for 10% to 15% stock market gains.

Quantitative easing has benefited only Wall Street bankers and the 1% wealthiest Americans. The $1.4 trillion of toxic mortgage backed securities on The Fed’s balance sheet are worth less than $700 billion. How will they unload this toxic waste? The Treasuries they have bought drop in value as interest rates rise. Quantitative easing’s Catch 22 is that it can never be unwound without destroying the Fed and the US economy.
Bennie and his Inkjets did a bang up job in 2011. He was able to expand his balance sheet from $2.47 trillion to $2.95 trillion in twelve short months. According to Ben and his Federal Reserve friends, increasing your balance sheet by $480 billion isn’t really printing money out of thin air and handing it to their Wall Street owners for free, so they can prop up the stock market and enrich their executives. Ben is now leveraged 57 to 1. He should move to Europe, where this level of leverage is commonplace. In comparison, Lehman Brothers and Bear Stearns were leveraged 40 to 1 when they went belly up.
