    You see how you are not informed correctly?

    Ron Paul won 22 delegates, and Romney only won 6.

    The 20 delegates was if there was correlation with the voting. But in May, 3 months after the caucases, the State Convention for choosing the delegates occured, and Ron Paul won most of them.

    That is what you want, when you don´t accept the truth.

    Even thougth is campaign is not financed by great corporations, like GoldmanSachs, unlike what happens with Obama and Romney?

    Ron Paul is against corporatism. He is not a puppet of anyone.

    Actually, in the first round of voting, 20 Nevada delegates will have to vote for Romney. And Romney has that same advantage in every other state. Which is why in the first ballot, he has won. Keep reading the article you linked, it references this.
    This will be the same for every other state.

    Yeah, but he can't do much about it, unless he a USA citizen. One thing is to worry if there were a candidate who wants to conquer the world, and another thing is to say that the media lies and bla bla bla.

    From what I'm seeing, the way it works in Nevada is like this:
    First, a caucus is held, people vote, and a winner is announced. Then a primary for the delegates is held to decide who is going to go to the National Convention. However, to make sure that the previous caucus actually means something, a certain number of delegates must vote for a candidate based on their percentage of votes. That is what happened in Nevada: Ron Paul tried to undermine the caucus by rallying supporters to vote in the delegate primary, which is not as well attended as the state caucus. So, if I'm understanding this correctly, Ron Paul attempted to undermine the people's will. However, it would be nice if someone with a better understanding of the Nevada State Caucus would come and explain (@pedro3131 signal activate) so I don't look like a jackass.

    He can raise awareness. I would too, if some thing of great matter to me was going on in USA.

    But all delegates are unbound, as I showed before.

    Only the delegates count. And they are all unbound. So, some delegates that are with Ron Paul are not forced to vote for Romney. And do not forget that there is many proof of fraud and prejudice against Ron Paul, made by the RNC, to block the Revolution and to help Romney.

    The Romney campaign has broken enough laws and party rules to have him disqualified before they even start voting on the nomination. But of crouse, teh GOP will do anything to stop Ron Paul.
