Ron Paul draws 5,600 to final of three campaign events in California this week

[AngelClark]

On Friday, thousands in California gathered to see Republican presidential candidate Ron Paul speak. The 12-term congressman from Texas had announced his campaign team would be returning to California for private fundraisers, media interviews, and town hall events. This is the final of the three scheduled town hall meetings. Dr. Paul's previous campaign events in California this week included two back-to-back crowds of thousands. On Wednesday, 4,000 gathered to see Ron Paul speak and on Thursday over 5,000 filled a stadium to see the presidential candidate.

The UC – San Diego event with 5,600-plus people was the third of three such events the 12-term Congressman from Texas held in the Golden State this week. On Wednesday Ron Paul drew a remarkable 4,000-plus crowd to Cal State – Fullerton, and last night Dr. Paul drew 5,000-plus people to UC – Davis.

AngelClark,

And once again thank you for another report. I don't know how you get them out so fast.

I grew up in San Diego so this Ron Paul rally is special to me. Your slide show was great. Thank you everyone who contributed to it. I'm also looking forward to rooting out any videos I can find over the weekend.

Keep up the good reporting!


What's next?

I've been throwing a pretty wide loop lately with the picture use. I hope people don't mind.

This one is really hard to estimate. Maybe some picture will surface taken from up high like those class rooms(?).

I put it on the front page with that picture. I tried to resize it so I could leave it large but it kept bleeding into the ads. I'm hoping a mod who is better at that can fix it because it is a fantastic picture!

People,

Wander over to Gage's thread and from there check out his link to his flicker account. It is worth the trip. It is where it says "here" in the the last word of the paragraph.

I wish!

The picture was taken by Gage. He has a thread going that links to his Flickr page. It is well worth the trip. Some of the best closeups I can remember of at any of these rallies. Look for the last word in the paragraph. "here"

I don't know how he got around so much or into the places he did. Maybe he is a long legged blond in real life.?
