In this webinar, you will learn about:

"He may be the most accomplished presidential candidate you've never heard of," George Mallet of KIMT told the inhabitants of northern Iowa last night. "Democrat Joe Sestak is making his way through Iowa. Sestak served in the US House, representing Pennsylvania's 7th congressional district in the suburbs of Philadelphia. Before being elected to the house, Sestak served for 31 years in the US Navy. He graduated second in his class from the United States Naval Academy. Ultimately, he achieved the rank of three star Admiral, making him the highest-ranking military officer ever elected to Congress at the time of his election."
