If you are unfamiliar with Ian, he graduated with honors from Hillsdale College in Michigan, earning a Bachelor of Arts in Political Economy and a Minor in Spanish. Since he was a young boy, Ian has demonstrated a passion for connecting people of all religious, cultural, social, economic, and political backgrounds. Ian is a talented musician and informative teacher of a variety of subject seminars, including: “How Christians Should Interact with Their Government”, and “Constitutional History 101”.  Most importantly, to this group of potential supporters, Ian is a STRONG proponent of the Second Amendment and will fight for our rights in the Unicameral.

I was curious about Hillsdale College and read what Wikipedia has about it.  Awesome college!

Just a reminder to get out and support Ian.  He's a major supporter of the Second Amendment.

WARNING: I'm going to vent a little bit.

I was disappointed in the NFOA turnout for this event.  By my count, we had only six NFOA members in attendance, including me.

Folks, if we can't turn out to support a candidate like Ian, we might as well hand over our guns right now.  We need to get gun grabber, liberals like Rick Kolowski out of our state legislature and strong supporters of our Constitution like Ian in.  We need to do whatever we can to get this young man, and other candidates like him, elected.

Thank you to those who came and donated.

If you would still like to donate, you may do so on Ian's website: https://ianmswanson.nationbuilder.com/donate  Please put "NFOA Member" in the comments.

I was impressed ... Very sharp, articulate, personable and knowledgable young man.   Look forward to seeing him in Lincoln.  Thanks for hosting it.

I planned on attending & was not able to get off of work until after 6pm that day...I definitely understand the frustration as we have similar turnout at other events. 

I do plan on donating some money & would be happy to volunteer for some door to door work going forward. 
The 2nd Amendment is not open for debate!

I really wanted to make it but life happened and unfortunately I couldn't get there.  Ian has my support though, I am in his district and will donate something to his campaign.
