"Kill the terrorists, Secure the border, and give me back my freedom"

"After the speech, local farmer Les Nelson cuts through the crowd. He has a crewcut, wears worn jeans, holds out his thick hands, and says: “Kill the terrorists, secure the border, and give me back my freedom.”

Thompson looks to him, and says, deadeye, “you just summed up my whole speech.”

That quote is part of an excellent in-depth article over at The Politico that picks up on the intangible that is taking place out on the campaign trail between Fred Thompson and the people he speaks to.
