This will be RPI's 7th Washington conference and as any previous attendee will hopefully confirm, we learn much from the great speakers but we also meet great people. We form important social, personal, and professional networks. And we have a good time!
Come and join Dr. Ron Paul and the Ron Paul Institute, along with fascinating speakers such as Col. Douglas Macgregor, Max Blumenthal, Anya Parampil, and many more to be announced.
