Thursday, February 11, 2016: GOP Presidential candidate Donald Trump will hold a campaign rally in Baton Rouge, LA at the Baton Rouge River Center. The event is scheduled to begin at 7:00 PM CST.
As the "Capital City", Baton Rouge is the political hub for Louisiana, and is the second-largest metropolitan city in the state, with an estimated population of 228,895 as of 2014. The metropolitan area surrounding the city, known as Greater Baton Rouge, had a population of 820,159 people as of 2013.The urban area has around 594,309 inhabitants.
HOW DID BATON ROUGE GET ITS NAME?
The French name le baton rouge ("the red stick") is the translation of a native term rendered as Istrouma, possibly a corruption of the Choctaw iti humma ("red pole") Andre Joseph Penicaut, a carpenter traveling with d'Iberville, published the first full-length account of the expedition in 1723. According to Penicaut,
"From there [Manchacq] we went five leagues higher and found very high banks called ecorts in that region, and in savage called Istrouma which means red stick [baton rouge], as at this place there is a post painted red that the savages have sunk there to mark the land line between the two nations, namely: the land of the Bayagoulas which they were leaving and the land of another nation—thirty leagues upstream from the baton rouge named the Oumas."
THE BATON ROUGE RIVER CENTER
At this time, I have no idea if the event will be in the large arena or the theater.
I hate when “conservatives” behave like liberals.
Trash it.
CRuz’s unsubscribe is like Hotel California....
You can check out, but you can never leave.
Good for YOU both! :-)
Good for YOU as well ! :-)

I HATE RUSH AND HE IS A MORON !
Teddy is NOT really a "conservative" at all! He mouths the words, but his actions say otherwise. Ted is a stinking FRAUD on many different levels !
SPOT ON !
The guy is pathetic
Obama reads a teleprompter fairly well; Ted is a great memorizer. Unlike Obama, Teddy doesn't even have ANY original thoughts, plans, ideas. We don't like nor want what Obama wants, but at least he had/has some ideas about what he wanted to do. Teddy? He's an EMPTY SUIT WITH THREE PAIRS OF PANTS AND NO BUTTONS ON THE JACKET, WHOSE SLEEVES ARE TOO LONG AND SIZE TOO SMALL.
What is worse, Rush/Levin think it is their jobs to take out Trump. They are no different than the liberal media and never critically look at Cruz.
If he is so conservative why did he allow ObamaTrade to go through? Why is he not absolutely transparent about his Birth certificate? Isn’t Conservatism about transparency?
They all have a double standard just like the establishmedia.
I agree about Trump being the right man for the job at this point. History will tell us if we were right. It all depends on the team Trump puts together and I would say that is one of his strong suits. It will take a strong, cohesive unit to take on the entire Washington, DC establishment. Sarah Palin’s involvement would great. Tsar in charge of dismantling government would be a good place for her.
Oh goody. The Perdition Brothers. Where do we sign up?
The other thing is it is great to see a man talk like a man. This feminization of America has got to stop. A guy has some salty language like you would here on a construction sight and everyone acts like it is the end of the world.
Course you can go watch the Vagina Monologues and that is so sophisticated.
Trump is blowing all of that up!
I LOVE Palin and have ALWAYS stood up for her! And from my demographics, I'm supposedly THE last person who anyone would EVER expect to he one of her BIGGEST fans; but I am. LOL
Both she and Trump are HONEST, love America, says what needs to be said, and know HOW to best fix this once great nation. They are both BRILLIANT; unlike Teddy and the other damned midgets.
Jeb is pathetic, he had brought his daughter with drug problem, brought his 90 yrs old mommy and now brother.
I think his ambitious son is behind this campaign. He want to keep seat warm for himself.
Ted has NEVER done ANYTHING for vets, but Trump has, FOR DECADES! Trump and his team best get THAT word out!
Now ain’t that a pretty picture? Mom, a junkie, and the least popular republican president of the last 40 years. Sounds like a family you’d see on judge judy.
I stopped listening to Levin and buying his books long, long, LONG ago, when Mark and I had a knock down drag out fight here; when he was posting all the time. He's an arrogant, think skinned, pathetic little man, who demands that everyone else agrees with him and slobbers all over him and says that he is right, even when he says something that is dead wrong.
I refuted a post of his, because he was WRONG and he went completely NUTSO on me; made it VERY personal.
The hell with both of them and I can't wait for Trump to be PRESIDENT, so that I can hear them both choke on it!
You are so right! “The other thing is it is great to see a man talk like a man. This feminization of America has got to stop. A guy has some salty language like you would here on a construction sight and everyone acts like it is the end of the world.

Talk to any Military Man! They know salty language and are proud of it!
Yes, I concur and I hope that Sarah will take a position with Donald, when it is offered to her. :-)
