And, thank you for your Search and Rescue Efforts! I was living in upstate NY at that time in history.

I was thinking when I just saw this Vid about what a long and hard battle was fought and Won for Al to become Senator from Minnesota!

The Campaign Vid for Elizabeth is Classic..I wish he could help all the Dem Senators who are in need of this Message from Senator Al Franken.
