A letter to Alice Germond from DNC Member Jon Ausman


&

20 February 2008

Honorable Alice Germond, Secretary
Democratic National Committee
430 South Capital Street, Southeast
Washington, D. C. 20003-4024

Dear Madame Secretary:

As Secretary of the Democratic National Committee (DNC) you are charged by the 2008 Delegate Selection Rules in Section 9.A (page ten) to


“officially confirm to each State Democratic Chair the names of the following unpledged delegates who legally reside in their respective state and who shall be recognized as part of their state’s delegation unless any such member has publicly expressed support for the election of, or has endorsed, a presidential candidate of another political party;

1. The individuals recognized as members of the DNC (as set forth in Article Three, Sections 2 and 3 of the Charter of the Democratic Party of the United States); and,…

3. All Democratic members of the United States House of Representatives and all Democratic members of the United States Senate; ….”


The Charter of the Democratic Party of the United States (DPUS) specifically mandates in Article Two, Section 4 (h)(iii)2) (page three) that the Democratic members of the United States Senate and Democratic members of the House of Representatives “shall” be delegates. Article Two, Section 4(h)(i) (page two) specifically mandates that all of the members of the Democratic National Committee “shall” serve as unpledged delegates.

The Charter of the DPUS is the superior document to any other adopted rules and regulations used by the DNC in the selection and/or regulation of delegates to the 2008 Democratic National Convention. The Charter specifically states in Article Ten, Section 3 (page nine) that:

“Each official body of the Democratic Party created under the authority of this Charter shall adopt and conduct its affairs in accordance with written rules, which rules shall be consistent with this Charter….”


Regardless of the vote taken by the DNC Rules and Bylaws regarding the delegate status of members of the Democratic National Committee, Democratic members of the United States Senate and Democratic members of the United States House of Representatives, persons holding these positions are delegates to the 2008 Democratic National Convention and shall be “officially confirmed” by the Secretary of the DNC.

If the persons holding the above posts are not “officially confirmed” by the Secretary of the DNC then the Secretary of the DNC will have violated Charter provisions of the DPUS.

It would be my suggestion that you should fulfill your mandated role as Secretary of the DNC. If anyone objects let them file an appeal of your action since your action is required by the Charter of the DPUS.

I ask that you do not ignore your required, mandatory duty to “officially confirm” the delegate status of the persons holding the positions that the Charter states shall be delegates as the Charter is supreme over the DNC Rules and Bylaws Committee.

By following your duties as mandated by the Charter you will be taking the first step to healing the breach created among the DPUS, the Florida Democratic Party and the Michigan Democratic Party.

In addition, once Florida and Michigan’s Democratic United State Senators, Democratic United States Representatives and DNC Members are recognized as delegates then I believe that both Florida and Michigan will be entitled to representation on the Democratic National Convention Credentials, Rules and Platform Committees.
With respect, I am,

Jon M. Ausman, Member
Democratic National Committee
Florida

Yea it appears that Jon aka "sammi1953" is doing lots of "great: work:

This man goes beyond being your average cheat. He is an emotional sadist for who duplicity in relationships is an ongoing thrill. I was the recipient of continual lies that spanned five years and included his producing a forged divorce decree. His lies led to my sustaining significant injuries (that are still having an impact on my mobility) when I had an accident while at a cabin resort with him, a place I would never have set eyes on had I not been led to believe that he and I were in a monagamus relationship. This compulsive liar even had the gall and audacity to cohabitate with me, and introduce me as his fiancee in the same town he and wife of 25 years live in. In addition he asked me to list him as the sole beneficary on a large life insurance policy. This request was based on the fact that we were to be married a month later. He didn't limit himself to me either, is my understanding that there were at least two others during the time he was involved with me. Steer clear of this cad, he has zero remorse about what he says or does and in all likelihood greatly enjoys the drama he creates for the women he decieves.

How can you possibly not honor the voters in legitimate primaries, but you want to honor the votes/delegates from inequitable and undemocratic caucuses that were rampant with fraud, corruption, and in some cases with threats and assaults to force the voters out without voting, or to sit down, shut up, and be ignored without voting?


Via Real Clear Politics:

Hillary won Florida by 294,772 votes.
Hillary won Michigan by 328,309 votes

Hillary won 150,000 more votes than Obama last night in Kentucky and Oregon. She won Kentucky by 249,224 votes while Obama won Oregon by 102,144 votes.

Let's add it all up:

Popular Vote Totals (w/FL & MI)Hillary leads by 174,047 votes (.48%.)

Popular Vote Totals (w/FL & MI and Estimate w/IA, NV, ME, WA): Hillary leads by 63,825 votes (.18%)

I would not acknowledge "votes" from corrupt, fraudulent, and un-democratic caucuses.

Regardless of what the DNC does on May 31 with FL and MI delegates, the popular votes were certified by the states. Their numbers are real and they must be added to her popular vote total.

Obama removed himself from the ballot by choice, not requirement. This is a consequence of his strategic decision to avoid embarrassment. He needs to accept it.

Alice Germond is a big mouthed fool. She also could update that photo she has on the DNC website as that looks like her granddaughter.
