The America Dream - Fried

Aug 21, 2008

Today the VoteForBusiness Bandwagon to Denver encountered fried food at its finest.  Zucchini, artichoke hearts, Snickers bars, frog legs, Twinkies, and even White Castle Hamburgers...there are some things you just have to see for yourself to believe.  Along with all the deliciously, gluttonous food, we also encountered some voters hungry for answers.

One passer by said, and I quote, "Isn't it supposed to be 'We the People...' and yet after they are elected, they vote what they want." After explaining to this Californian and countless others throughout the day, who we are, what we do, and why our Bandwagon was traveling the country, people started to understand that they did in fact have a voice -- and that their voice does in fact matter to people in Washington.

We talked health care with an eye surgeon, regulatory issues with a campground owner, and the rising cost of fuel with a small business owner from Idaho who owns a mechanical bull company.  These issues are top of mind even with the sensory overload of the California State Fair.  Today we are off to Oregon...stay tuned.
