Clark -Hunter report

[robbedvoter]

went there at the time doors opened and even offered to help the volunteers with the signs,
Clark bars - confident that my name was on a list at the door. It turns out there was a huuuge
line of people waiting - and I hardly fit in the 600 people auditorium - pack to the limit. There was
plenty of media. Clark was late almost 1 h but his reception was enthusiastic with stand up
applause. Liz Kruger , a new NYS Senator introducing him made a jab about her also being new in
politics "although I wouldn't have started with running for president"
"You won an election there's a podium free, come on - join us" Clark responded to her.
He went on to describe the great reception he had in Florida. He mentioned that as he came
to NYC he saw this great crowd with flags, cheering. "For me? Nice!" He then was told that these
were Yankee fans, celebrating. "And this is the oldest problem with intelligence - you see what
you want to see" - big applause there.
He proceeded to talk about his life of service in the military.
Suddenly, behind him, one of the kids standing on the stage fainted. He immediately jumped to
see what happened - others too. In a few minutes he announced us that the kid was OK - he is
conscious and alert and will be able to join us shortly. He talked about veterans of parades and
locking of knees and asked the Hunter lady to bring chairs for those on the stage.
"I was talking about the war - I didn't know we'd have a real casualty" he reprised his speech.
He was very well received, standing ovations at the end - a great event which I'm sure brought
new people into the fold.

Were there video cameras? I wonder if we can catch a video of it somewhere.

3. Yeah

it's always great to hear these firsthand accounts based on actual personal experience. So much saner than the conspiracy theories and paranoia.
