How did you get onstage in the first place? I would think you would have to be like first in line or pass some type of security check or something, so how did you end up pulling that off? Is it like a free for all, everyone hits the door and runs, or how did that work? I am just picturing in my mind you hitting the door and flat sprinting to the stage, LOL, I have a warped mind, but really, how did you get there?

:secret: How do you think they raised $150 million? :sus:
Thank you precocious. My point wasn't that I got on TV, but that I was out supporting my political party, and being on stage was something special.
I figured someone would ask. The answer is being in the right place at the right time. I didn't even have a tix for event, so I was standing outside the gate. I was approached by a Clinton staffer, who asked me if I'd like to be on stage while Hillary spoke. I asked how long I'd be up there for, she said 1 hour, so I jumped at opportunity. I was also completely amazed at how many secret service there were, but nobody asked me for ID or frisked me at any point. I definately thought security woulda been much tighter, but I guess they know what they're doing.
I woulda thought the same thing, but this wasn't a fund raising event, it was a get out and vote event. Early voting started yesterday in fla.

There was a story on NPR years ago about a guy who was a member of some disheveled, though harmless, anti-government group. The event was going to have President George HW Bush (the first one... and acting president at the time) speaking. So this guy and a couple from the group managed to get in and found it bizarrely easy to get upgraded media passes, to the point that this nobody group (Jeff Gannonish like), had one of them in the tent where George HW Bush was going to speak. They then had this 'awesome' plan about how he was going to rant and say stuff.I figured someone would ask. The answer is being in the right place at the right time.
