Details of Constitution Party Fall National Committee Meeting
From Gary Odom, here are the latest details on the Constitution Party’s Fall meeting.
The Constitution Party’s Fall meeting will be held in Coeur d’Alene, Idaho.
The location selected is the famously beautiful Coeur d’Alene Hotel and Resort, 115 South Second Street, Coeur d’Alene, ID 83816. It can never be said that our state affiliates don’t have a neighborly attitude. The Constitution Party of Washington is hosting this meeting, and it was they who suggested that the best place to hold the meeting would be ….. in Idaho about thirty miles east of Spokane. The Coeur d’Alene is a world class resort located on the shores of the idyllic Lake Coeur d’Alene. Grab this opportunity to visit the beautiful northwest, while working with Constitution Party leaders from all over the country to plan the 2012 presidential nominating convention, and work on strategy for the presidential election, state party development and ballot access.
The National Committee meeting will start Friday morning at 8:30am. Pastry, fruit and coffee will be served in the meeting room. Lunch will be included and there will be a banquet Friday evening. Also on Friday, there will be a Western States Regional meeting. The meeting will reconvene on Saturday at 8:30am, and adjourn by mid-afternoon. Again, coffee, fruit and pastries will be served in the meeting room.
In addition to important strategy development for the upcoming presidential election year, an inspiring line-up of speakers is set with more expected. Confirmed speakers include Liberty Roundtable Host, Sam Bushman, 2008 Constitution Party Vice-Presidential nominee, Darrell Castle, former Constitution Party Director of Communications, Scott Bradley, 2010 CP of Utah U.S. Senate Nominee and Constitutional Scholar, Mary Starrett, Former Alabama Chief Justice Roy Moore, Constitution Party 2008 Presidential Candidate Chuck Baldwin, former Virginia Congressman 5th District, Virgil Goode.
