Title: Rand Paul Coin (RPCD) (Please Follow, RT and Join)
Post by: fuzzy on November 20, 2014, 04:46:34 pm

Anyone interested Rand Paul Coin (RPCD), please join us for a discussion on Mumble @1:00pm (Central STD) for an hour-long discussion. Regarding this news:

http://www.politico.com/story/2014/11/rand-paul-nsa-libertarians-113042.html?hp=t4_r
This directly effects RPCD and DPOS is the only algorithm that requires people as active citizens. I'm interested in hearing opinions on this story and getting them put to audio for our Beyond Bitcoin Town-Hall Styled Hangouts. As Technology evolves...so must our avenues of communication and education.

Rand Paul has disgraced himself and Bitshares should distance itself from RPC as far as possible. Should anyone expect anything else from an incumbent....I don't think so.

come in and chat.  good points... can't necessarily disagree.  Here is a good link to read the discussion on twitter.  Glenn Greenwald is a renowned constitutional lawyer and journalist...some good points thrown around here.

I think any current political leader will be too divisive. Ron Paul is universally loved, has global appeal and he would be my preferred option. I also think 13 delegates is too low, though I understand the devs reasoning.

I'm a buyer of any no dilution DPOS though, so I have a few RPC for the Nov 27 snapshot.

We need to practice the politics if we are going to grow to the arena we wish to access.  As always, I will do my best to document the community discussion and post it for a historical archives of our journey together through this.
