On The Road In Springfield, Illinois

I recently had the opportunity to go to Springfield, Illinois to speak to the National Federation of Republican Women's regional conference. Afterwards I visited Abraham Lincoln's old neighborhood which had been restored to its original condition. It was inspiring to visit a place which represents such a pivotal time in American history and the leader who showed such incredible courage during that period.

Senator Rutherford was an incredible host for my two days on the state. Here's a picture of us at the Pasfield House just behind the State Capital.

Thanks Matt, Three generations united with love. A good example is worth 10 thousand words. The spirit of the American Dream, shaped within the four walls of wholesome united families and homes, is where love and respect for neighbours of every nation, people, tongue and creed lives, and where the hope and faith for a better world is born. Families like yours are where love lives in your heart for all nations under the azure skies, and your children will bear the banners of peace, on earth of good-will to all people. --Phill

The easiest way to reach voters across the aisle and not get bogged down in the media crossfire is to relate quotes from our nation's historically favorite past presidents to today's issues. I am very surprised that more politicians don't tap more often into this source of inspiration. It without fail inspires Democrats, Republicans, and Independents, because these great leaders of the past of universally seen as everyone's president.

Hey Josh, nice picture of you and Honest Abe. Coincidentally, my family will be visiting Springfield this summer too, shortly after we drive through IOWA. Are you ever going to post your schedule? We just HAVE to get a family photo in front of the Mitt Mobile! Happy 4th of July to the Romney family and to all of Mitt's supporters! Be sure to catch "A Capitol Fourth" on your PBS station. Our family was there last year in person, and it was awesome but also very hot and muggy! We'll be watching it on the couch with the A/C blowing this year!
