Sentinel: As a woman, what does the Republican Party offer you?

Jo Ann Davidson: "I believe in the Republican Party's commitment to the strength and security of our nation; to a strong economy and low taxes; to letting people and communities make more of the decisions that affect their lives; to freedom at home and abroad; and to personal responsibility.

"As a mother and grandmother, I also applaud the Party's commitment to education, health care, and our seniors' retirement security. I believe that the Republican Party presents the best solutions to the problems facing our nation."

From September 1-4, 2008, an anticipated 45,000 delegates, alternate delegates, party officials, volunteers, members of the media, and convention guests will gather in Minneapolis-Saint Paul for the 2008 Republican National Convention. The host cities will be showcased on an international level as the Republican Party highlights its strong principles - and nominates the next President of the United States.

The Republican National Committee's Committee on Arrangements (COA) is charged with the planning and management of the 2008 Republican National Convention. RNC Co-Chairman Jo Ann Davidson is Chairman of the COA and Maria Cino is the COA President and CEO. The COA and the 2008 Minneapolis-Saint Paul Host Committee are working together to plan every aspect of the four-day event.

2008 will mark the second time the Republican Party has convened in Minnesota. Minneapolis hosted the 10th Republican National Convention in 1892, where Republicans nominated Benjamin Harrison. This time around, for the 39th national convention, Minnesota is home to many rising stars in the party, including Governor Pawlenty and Senator Coleman.

The 2008 Republican National Convention is the latest nominating convention in history - and it is certain to be a pivotal event in the presidential election. From Minneapolis-Saint Paul, it will be full steam ahead to November 4, 2008, for the party's nominee.
