In an unanticipated sequence of events pro-Constitutionalist and navy
veteran Robert Vaughn, has moved into the position of Chairman with
the Los Angeles County Republican Party (RPLAC) The previous
Chairman, businessman Glen Forsch and 1st Vice Chairman Lydia
Gutierrez resigned last month at the May 14, 2009 regular meeting.
This sequence of events has made Mr. Vaughn, who was the duly elected
2nd Vice Chairman, the new head of the County Party.
Robert Vaughn's personal stance is for “Principles before
Personalities and the Rule of Law with Inclusion.”
What caused the sudden shakeup?
Last December, during the normally held county reorganization meeting,
a new Chairman (Forsch) had been elected by a quorum of Republican
Central Committee Members. It was hoped that Forsch would overhaul the
party that had seen voter registrations hemorrhage, donations dry up,
and Republican wins decline to new lows.
Last month, at the regular county meeting, an illegal parliamentary
motion to “Vacate the Chair,” and immediately replace the elected with
a temporary Chair from outside the county. This was done for the sole
purpose to hold a special election with only a single person running.
This created a crisis and forced an arbitrary vote.
The person who commandeered the temporary chairmanship was Ventura
County Republican Party Chairman Mike Osborn. Osborn is a citizen of
Ventura County! He also allowed himself to be recognized in front of
the entire committee as a Certified Professional Parliamentarian,
which he has never been, to get the trust of the members to oust Mr.
Forsch.
After the temp “Chair” was elected by the committee members, Glen
Forsch and Lydia Gutierrez resigned and left the building. The rest of
the board was systematically voted out of office.
What's was left of rightful executive board, along with their
supporters, looked to counsel, did the necessary follow up research,
and consulted the professional opinion of highly respected and
government certified parliamentarians (such as Nancy Sylvester M.A.
PRP CPP-T ) and discovered that the entirety of what happened that
night was not only completely illegal, but a complete violation of the
County Republican bylaws and a violation of Robert's Rules of Order
and it principles . An absolute affront to every single Republican
voter in Los Angeles County.
The purpose of the new Republic Leadership headed by Chairman Vaughn
has now become to reposition the Republican image with a fresh look
and principled leadership and candidates to promote a viable
opposition to the dominant tide of over taxation, rampant spending,
and corruption.
Chairman Vaughn, with the help of his new board, when elected,
promises to work hard to create an environment that will encourage
principled candidates, committed donors, and enthused individuals to
volunteer their time to make Los Angeles County what it should be; a
modern bastion of liberty and the most economically viable 800 square
miles on Earth .
The new leadership of the Republican Party of Los Angeles County, in
an order to generate emergency funds to keep the party afloat has
started a PAC named “Restore the Los Angeles Republic” which can be
found at (http://RestoreLA.com.) They will be modernizing their
fundraising techniques by asking for funds directly from the populous
instead of from a few special interests that demand quid pro quo and
special privileges. There goals are to sustain the rule of law and
promote honest leadership.
They ask for your moral and financial support.
