Minneapolis is a premier American city
handicapped by an ideological leadership. Now there is good news
for the city!
The Minneapolis City Republican
Committee intends to reverse the effects of decades of
liberalism--taxation, government control, weak law enforcement, and
anti-family policies--by electing Republicans to city offices who believe
that common sense conservatism is the answer to the city's problems.
Conventions Schedule
All delegates and alternates
elected at their precinct caucuses will be mailed a convention call
from their respective BPOU at least 10 days before the convention
date. Calls to the Hennepin County Convention should have been
distributed at your caucus. If you didn't receive a call or if you
have questions about the county convention, you can email Carleton
Crawford at
carleton.crawford@att.net or call 612-384-0356. |

"When the people
fear their government, there is tyranny; when the government fears the
people, there is liberty...The strongest reason for the people to retain
the right to keep and bear arms is, as a last resort, to protect
themselves against tyranny in government.
