Bob Barr goes to Minneapolis

ABC News caught up with Bob Barr in Minneapolis this afternoon.

The Libertarian presidential candidate, who was in Denver last week, stopped by Ron Paul’s “Rally for the Republic,” but told the news outlet he’s not ticked off by Paul’s refusal to make an endorsement in the November general election.

Wrote the network’s blogger:

Barr, a former [Georgia] GOP congressman, told ABC News he respects Paul’s intent not to make an endorsement in the general election, and is “here today because there are thousands of people who believe we need to shrink the power, the size, the scope of the federal government…..”

“Ron has chosen to work within the Republican Party, I’ve chosen to work through the Libertarian party through the electoral route, but we all want the same thing,” he added.

Barr will be hanging around the Republican National Convention the rest of the week. His campaign says the Libertarian has a 9 a.m. appearance tonight on Fox News’ “Your World with Neil Cavuto.”
