On the road promoting the power of the people and his latest book that praises it, author Jim Hightower stopped in Connecticut during a trip through the Northeast for a couple of appearances.

The first event was the public event at West Hartford Town Hall, which drew by our count close to 125 people.  Jim's speech was fantastic, and he gave Connecticut credit for its new public financing law, which he said was absolutely necessary to make meaningful change. He spent roughly 30 minutes on Q&A from the audience, ranging from questions on immigration to whether he was planning on running for president (evidently, he's not.) Throughout it all, Jim gave thoughtful, intelligent and of course witty answers. He spent the remainder of time signing books and chatting with folks.
