Wake Forest Town Hall

By Jared Fuller, on Feb 9, 2010

Just this past week, I had the distinguished pleasure of being invited to sit on a panel for a town hall at Wake Forest University. Year of Youth was a non-partisan (we like to think post-partisan) sponsor of the event, as well as several other libertarian, conservative, and a non-partisan organizations.

The message of localism transcended pretty much all political boundaries and people agreed:

We have to act, and act locally!
