5. I am an ex-pat Arkansan right now

Nov 2012

I was an Arkansas Boys' State delegate (got to sit in Governor Pryor's chair on the last day ), met Senator Bumpers at a Jefferson-Jackson dinner in Little Flock (and wrote several letters to him while he was Senator), met David Pryor as Senator when he gave an informal talk in Springdale, received a diploma from Governor Clinton, and met Clinton again when he came to Springdale for his first visit back to Arkansas after becoming President. I had been aiming for something politically-related in the state, but then fate took me out of the state and I've lost whatever political connections I had developed there. I'm still a registered voter there (district 92), so I'm a neighbor of yours in that respect.
