Ron Paul in Colorado

-Ryan W. McMaken

Back in 2002 or 2003, I went to see Ron Paul make a speech at the University of Colorado in Boulder. He was flown in by the College Libertarians to discuss the PATRIOT Act, the newly-created Department of Homeland Security and matters of war and peace.

Fewer than 100 people were there. Afterward, I briefly talked to Paul. There wasn't much of a wait to do so. Paul was there to do what he always does: spread the message of liberty. Unfortunately, not very many people were listening back then.

Today, 1,200 people showed up for his event at Colorado State University today, and another 1,150 showed up for his talk in Denver. Perhaps another 1,000 showed up to see him in Colorado Springs.
