While thousands walked the exhibit floor, a sold out crowd heard a line up of GOP current and former elected officials tout there ability to protect our Second Amendment rights as well as other issues they believe are important to those in the crowd.
Senator Ted Cruz and Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker received some of the loudest applause from the audience. Cruz claimed he was the one who had consistently fought for conservative principles, even when it was not popular. Walker talked about his modest upbringing.
Jeb Bush, who has been tagged as the "establishment" candidate, said he would put his record on the Second Amendment while Governor of Florida up against any other candidate.
Former Governor Rick Perry said he is undecided on whether he will run again but gave a spirited speech none the less. Not long after I received a fundraising email from Perry's PAC touting his Life Membership in the NRA.
Other speakers included Governor Bobby Jindal, Donald Trump, and Marco Rubio. You can watch all of the speeches of the day at NRANEWS.COM. You can also watch today's Annual Meeting of Members live on several NRA video platforms, including NRANews.
