A recap of the last year:<\/strong> \u00a0 While the other potential presidential candidates were positioning themselves in various ways for potential runs for Campaign 2012, we were already hard at the campaign. \u00a0 (I declared for 2012 five minutes after the polls closed in Alaska for Campaign 2008. \u00a0 I mean why wait, right?) \u00a0 Last year our tours spanned some 10,000 miles. \u00a0 We campaigned in: Georgia, Alabama, Louisiana, Texas, Colorado, Wyoming, South Dakota, Minnesota, Illinois, Indiana, Ohio, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, New York, North Carolina… \u00a0 We were featured in such newspapers as the LaGrange News <\/strong>in Georgia, the Amarillo Globe News<\/strong> in Texas, Wiki News<\/strong>… \u00a0 I gave my “State of the Union”<\/strong> address at the University of Notre Dame<\/strong>. \u00a0 The talk was sponsored by the Center for Social Concerns at the university and actually was the night of President Obama’s “State of the Union” address. \u00a0 (Incidentally, the talks were decidedly different.) \u00a0 During the last year, we continued to do even more cross-country research for a rather extensive set of position papers. \u00a0 And one of these position papers (on Native American issues) was featured in a Cengage Learning college text book: Opposing View Points — Social Justice.<\/strong> \u00a0 Our essay argued for a series of amends to Native Americans. \u00a0 It ran opposite of Michael Reagan’s. \u00a0 He argued against amends. \u00a0 (Reagan is the son of the late President Reagan and is a conservative talk show host). \u00a0 We are currently in Atlanta, Georgia, for the winter where we are volunteering at an outreach for the homeless, updating our website, and preparing for the next series of campaign tours. \u00a0 And so it goes for our fourth successive run for president.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
