I'll admit being surprised that Rep. Thayn is more than just an "anti-public education because he got beat up so many times in school for being a goob" kind of guy. I'm really hoping you guys pass both the "abolish the Federal Reserve and return to the gold/silver standard" plank along with the "truth in advertising" plank where candidates will have to say if they agree with returning to the gold standard. I admit I find it ironic that the people who complain that responding to global warming would destroy economic growth now want to return to the gold/silver standard, the elimination of which spurred economic growth more than any other single factor in the last century. Good luck storming the castle! Thanks for the report! I’ll admit being surprised that Rep.
