Two undeniable truths

  As I tried to get to sleep last night ( it's currently 4:35am ) , I kept seeing the same thing. Me, speaking to voters in Olympia, then again in Portland, and so on through California, Nevada....etc. An updated twist to the whistle-stop campaigns of old...I was driving. A common thread was the start of each speech, as written here: " Hello, I am Trevor Dodge, and I am running for president of the United States in 2016. I have two undeniable truths to tell you now. First, the chance of you meeting another presidential candidate in this setting is slim to none. Second, any time you hear another candidate say " We will, or I will " know that they are lying....only because as candidates, we can only tell you with certainty, what we HOPE to accomplish. <  While original "whistle stop tours" happened often at the turn of the 19th century, Ronald Reagan used it last in Oct. 1984, travelling approximately 120 miles through Ohio. My road trip will cover at least one stop in each of the lower 48 states and hopefully a trip to each Alaska and Hawaii to talk with the voters. >
