We have had the opening prayer, the Pledge of Allegiance, and Bishop Jackson is now offering remarks. He is the chaplain for the Family Foundation ... he said, "We are here today because we love America!" Standing ovation, cheers, and applause. Jenny Beth Martin is now addressing the crowd.

There's a break in the action in the Hall as folks head to breakout session....
