On Friday night I attended Senator John McCain’s meet-and-greet at an American Legion Post on James Island. The Senator spoke for more than twenty minutes, and at one point, he paused and pointed me out to the crowd.
I was handed a microphone and the opportunity to explain to over 100 people what the ONE Campaign is, and why we are involved in the election process. Senator McCain thanked us for what we are doing for this country and the cause that we are so adamantly pursuing.
