Have a great time.
Thanks for letting us know about this. I'm very glad to hear that Obama is doing a town-hall style meeting. I think he needs to do more up-close-and-personal events.
Obviously, both candidates would rather do large speeches, because you reach the most voters in large venues. However, Obama is very good in intimate settings and he needs to show himself really talking with voters and answering questions.
That way, he can be more personal and offer more specifics in that kind of setting. He's got those specifics. I've read his lengthy plan many times, and it would be great if he could share that with more people.
I hope he touts his status as a "Constitutional Scholar". I don't think enough people know about this--and it's important information.
Please let us know how it goes!! I'm in Iowa, and I find myself pining away for January, when the campaigns came through here.
Have a great time. We look forward to your full report!
:)

6. Excellent! I love the city of San Antonio. |
|
I went to two counselling "How to" courses there at Ft. Sam Houstin during the 1990s.
IMO, you have one beautiful city and "good people." :hi:
