You are invited to hear Richard Kimball, Vote Smart President, give a multi-media presentation on why facts matter:

  • The Founding Fathers feared that if they cast power out to the people, they would not know enough to self-govern successfully and “factions” would take control.
  • How fun, famous and dangerous political commercials manipulate people emotionally instead of informing them intellectually.
  • “A lie can travel halfway around the world while the truth is still putting on its shoes.” – Mark Twain. The growth of lies and the people’s expectation and acceptance of them.
  • Practical means and demonstrations of defending your right to the facts, the truth and the reality that our democracy is so dependent on.
