Ron Paul in Minnesota!






Its been a couple of exciting days here in Minnesota as Ron Paul was in town!  I found out Friday that Paul was going to be here Saturday speaking at Mayo High School and thankfully Matt and I were both off so we could go.  We showed up and hour and half early and got front row seats.  The auditorium was packed by the time Paul came out and the crowd was excited to see him.  He spoke for over a half an hour on his usual topics- liberty, the constitution, the fed, ending the wars and nation building and restoring America.  It was awesome.  Afterwards he hung around a bit and signed autographs.  We got his autograph as well as a number of great pieces of Ron Paul flare.  My favorite is a bracelet which says "I (heart) Ron Paul" and "Champion of the Constitution" as well as Ron Paul family cookbook!

Tuesday night was caucus night in Minnesota.  Matt and I went out and caucused for the first time ever.  It was kind of fun and reminded me of being in high school civics class.  Ron Paul won our precint straw poll and Matt, after giving a great speech, was one of eight elected to be a delegate for our precint.


May God be merciful to America and give us Ron Paul for President!
