Paul Ryan to visit ECU on Labor Day


print friendly

Republican vice presidential contender Paul Ryan will campaign in Greenville during next week's Democratic National Convention in Charlotte.

Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney's campaign announced Saturday that Ryan will speak at the East Carolina University Student Recreation Center at 1 p.m. Monday. Tickets for the event are being distributed online.

Ryan's plan to draw attention in North Carolina the day that the Democratic National Convention in Charlotte starts isn't surprising. Vice President Joe Biden had planned to spend two days campaigning in Florida during the GOP convention, but Hurricane Isaac forced him to cancel.

Hope I get the chance to see him.... great guy, heralded by members of both parties for his bold budgetary skills and political prowess..... now scorned because he is a real threat to the Obamanation now running our country into the ground. = MEP

Ryan voted for the BUsh stimulus, TARP, GM bailout, Medicare PArt D, Unemployment extension to 56 weeks, debt ceiling increases....budgetary skills? LOL is that what you call a Keynesian now? Poor America. Poor sheep voters. MEP you use to bash Keynesians now you call you say they have "budgetary skills" LOL I cant even make this up!

Boney - if you want some examples, how about looking at this column - it details several, just from the one convention speech: BONUS! It's on FOXNEWS.COM! www.foxnews.com/opinion/2012/08/30/paul-ryans-speech-in-three-words

3forme - I wouldn't be too concerned with the whinners. If you watch their posts that is all you will see plus allegations (or lies) with no facts.

zz3510 - unless you can back up your allegation with facts - you're the one lyin!!
