GrokTV-AFPF Defending the American Dream – Pam Bondi, Attorney General for the State of Florida

AFP - Defending American Dream 2012This past weekend was the Americans for Prosperity’s Defending the American Dream Summit; a gathering of free market and Liberty and Freedom loving activists who came to go to workshops to sharpen their skills and to listen to an impressive list of well known (and loved) speakers.  GraniteGrok was invited to come  and spent the weekend on Radio Row where, obviously enough, radio talk hosts came in to do their shows remotely and to interview some of the speakers and notables that were at the event (we were the only blogsite allowed and the only ones doing live video of our interviewees!). So besides the first interview series (“What is your American Dream – and Obama’s?“), we had a fair number of folks.  Most notable was Pam Bondi, the Attorney General of Florida; I learned two things quickly:

  • She is far prettier than in Mike’s capture of her speaking in NH for Mitt Romney
  • What immediately comes across is that she is even sharper of thought, quickness, and focus.

She even forgave me for mangling her name off camera before we began and at the end (I had “Pat” stuck on my tongue and my mind kept thinking “Biundo” – as in NH’s own Mike Biundo – formerly Rick Santorum’s campaign director and now working for Mitt Romney but NOT Congressman Frank Guinta (R-NH)).

Note: the lighting was HORRIBLE – and I lent out one of our LED panels to another roving camera so sorry it is so dark!
