The Kentucky Primary is tomorrow, and as it turns out, Bill Clinton was making a tour of Kentucky campaigning for Hillary. It's not every day a current or former occupant of the White House comes to Mt. Sterling; probably Harry Truman in '48. So we decided to stay around for a few more hours because we heard late yesterday that former Pres. Clinton was going to be giving a speech from a front porch on High Street, just around the corner from my mother's house. Will took this shot from the front row where he was standing. His grandmother was right behind him, while his parents and great aunt and other friends stood behind the barrier.

What a cool experience for Will! I vividly remember hearing Jimmy Carter speak when I was a kid. If you put the pedal to the metal, you can zip through Oregon and hear Barack Obama..LOL
WOW! what a great way to experience the democratic process up close and personal!
