More show up for Ron Paul than big government in Iowa
July 1, 2007
It appears that more than 1,000 Ron Paul supporters showed up for a rally that occured after the Iowa Christian Alliance/Iowans for Tax Relief candidates forum, which refused to invite Dr. Paul, ended.
Not bad considering only about 600 showed up, out of over 1,200 expected, for the big government, war monger forum which included 6 candidates.
Initially a joint-forum held by the Iowans for Tax Relief and Iowa Christian Alliance did not give Ron Paul an invitation. But his exclusion from this rather mundane event turned out to be a blessing in disguise as the Ron Paul meetup groups inside and outside of Iowa found a cause to be motivated for. The original plan was just to have some sort of rally outside of the convention by a couple dozen Paul supporters, a way of having his presence and views be felt even though he wouldn’t be there. However, the planning accelerated, somebody rented out the Hy-Vee Hall right after the forum’s time-slot and Ron Paul found time to fit another speech into his busy schedule. The forum saw only 600 attendees for six candidates, while Paul alone drew in over 1000 cheering fans, a full house. Pretty impressive for a guy the main stream media doesn’t give much attention.
