Hmmm, as people all over the country are reminding each other, this Hillary Scooby-Doo Tour thing sure looks familiar. We're flattered the liberals think the idea is really keen! Since it's #ThrowbackThursday, it's also pretty keen to thank the democrats for taking a page out of our playbook and also to share the picturesque, sincere, no-media "One Nation" RV trek of ours a few years ago. From way up North in the natural resource-rich state of Alaska down to the inspirational, loud and patriotic Rolling Thunder Rally in DC to a calm clambake on a cool New Hampshire night, it was a blast to introduce American people and places to folks who crave the reminders of what makes our nation exceptional and free! Our tour is proof we dare not go backwards and fundamentally transform America; instead we must move ahead to fundamentally restore all that is good and safe and strong in America. And we're pretty good about doing it without letting the media get in the way. (In fact, it was great to see the media finally have to do what the rest of the middle class does every single day – WORK FOR IT. Though I don't know why they were frustrated not being able to keep up with us, I mean, I was in our bus wrapped in the Constitution!)
So here's a little secret – a video from the SarahPAC* vault that's never been released until now. (I knew it'd come in handy someday.) Makes me want to fire up the RV again, load up the kids... Enjoy!

It was kind of familiar when Sarah did it too. It’s an idea that goes very far back in American political history.
For later
Whom were the predecessors you refer to?
It’s basically a whistle stop tour. So pretty much everybody since the train got invented has done some variation of it.
Someone should let Palin know it wasn’t an original idea when she did it, either. It’s a practice known for decades.
You really should watch it,just to recall how Sarah Palin’s bus tour differed greatly from the standard train whistlestops and canned political advance notice/crowd wrangling tour. Gov. Palin had the msm heads spinning in confusion.
Great political theater.
Ping to Sarah's Amazing List!
Sarah's wasn't the first bus tour, nor will it be the last.
But Sarah wanted to help reminded America of how Great it is.
While PIAPS wants to prep it for living like Communist East Germany.
Rolling Black Outs and Potato Picking Parties for Everyone!
(Except her and the Commissars of course)
Who was the most recent Presidential politician prior to Palin to do a bus tour?
"Hey Hillary!"
*LIKE*
I forgot about that.
Or maybe never knew.
I don’t think these contemporary bus tours are really the same as The Whistle Stops.
Back then, people travelled by train so it made sense to campaign in that manner.
Now it is more a calculated event.
Call me a hopeless romantic but i’d vote for President in a heartbeat.
Those coaches are quite luxurious.
It gives the candidate a nice place to hang out on the road, between private jet trips.
Wherever Sarah travels, she brings pretty and goodness with her.
As for wherever Hitlery goes, she brings stink and leaves it instead of a tip.
