Clinton Rally in Fort Dub
Last Tuesday I attended a Hillary Clinton rally that featured President Clinton as the main speaker.
As many of you know I am an Obama supporter but I LOVED Bill Clinton and all of the GREAT things he did for this country when he was in the office.
I wasn’t sure what to expect. I knew that Mr. Clinton would be speaking about Hillary and why she would make a good President but I what I didn’t expect was how in-depth he was going to be about her, her policies, and why he thinks she’d make the best President.
The event attracted over four thousand people and the room quickly filled up and they had to turn a great deal of people away. I started at the front of the event but as the temperature in the room grew because of the long wait for Mr. Clinton to arrive I decided to move back to the press platform to try and get some air.
It turned out that I had a better view of what was happening when I moved back and didn’t have to try and see over the guy with a huge hat and sign blocking the way the entire time.
Mr. Clinton was late as I had expected and the event got a late start. A great deal of people in the event were made aware of the event via an email that “Hillary” sent to local supporters. Tiffany received the email and of course is the one that wanted to go as she is a Clinton supporter.
The once great President of the United States talked for about three hours about Hillary, her policies and why we should vote for her. One line that met resounding cheers was, “Which part of my presidency didn’t you like? The peace or the prosperity?” which got a large round of applause and then he followed it up with a promise that Hillary’s presidency would be even better.
On the way in to the event we were stopped by Ron Paul supporters handing out brochures who would be later removed from the building only to be removed two more times and nearly arrested by the end of the night.
The majority of people seemed to be agreeing with what Mr. Clinton was saying and I only saw one older lady who kept shaking her head in disgust leading me to wonder why she even came.
I’m not going to lie… Mr. Clinton still has it… and Hillary was in one of our local diners today and is building a LARGE momentum in Fort Wayne that Barrack Obama will be unable to combat unless he actually makes an apperance in the town to show he cares.
