Still, potential candidates work to build support at the gathering. An organization affiliated with Texas Congressman Ron Paul’s presidential campaign, Campaign for Liberty, offered discounted tickets and lodging for the conference.

Paul, 75, who won the straw poll of potential candidates at last year’s conference, got a boisterous reception for his speech. He attracted a following among some young voters in his unsuccessful bid for the Republican nomination in 2008.

“I’m glad to see the revolution is continuing,” he said to loud cheers.

Is there any accuracy to this statement? I thought C4L merely buys some tickets in advance to make sure some are available. - Students already receive an automatic discount rate of $35.

I find it hard to believe anyone received free lodging or free tickets - as numerous articles have implied!

Not free, but discounted tickets and lodging, and yes it is true. I was only able to go myself because of that.
