What a week!  Fred was back in New Hampshire for six days on trip #15.  His schedule was packed.  He did lots of campaigning, press, meetings and continued house hunting in the Manchester area.

While he was excluded from Monday’s Debate at St. Anselm College, he was treated like a full-fledged Presidential candidate everywhere else.   Here are some highlights:

Tuesday, he was a guest on The Rachel Maddow Show on MSNBC live via satellite from the New Hampshire Institute of Politics at St. Anselm College (home to Monday’s Debate).  He was interviewed about his request for investigations into Mitt Romney’s possible voting and tax irregularities in Massachusetts, which he announced at a press conference on Monday.

While Romney claims that he and his wife were living in their son’s basement for 15 months, there is plenty of evidence to the contrary.  Click on the image below for the 5 minute interview, or to see the entire longer story, Click Here:

What we are terming “BasementGate” was featured on The Rachel Maddow Show both Monday and Wednesday night as well.  To read Fred’s complaint:  CLICK HERE

Also at Monday’s press conference, Fred released his newest commercial, “Tyrannosaurus Rex.”  Since Fred was not invited into Monday’s debate, he crashed it by running his new commercial during and around it on CNN and New Hampshire’s WMUR TV in the key early voting states of Iowa and New Hampshire.

This hard-hitting commercial, produced by filmmaker John Keitel, is the kickoff of Fred’s new effort to bring down gas prices, which are “hurting families and destroying the American economy.”  The 30 second commercial ran in Des Moines and throughout New Hampshire Monday night.  A slightly longer version of it is up on YouTube.

Watch Fred take on Big Oil and the CEO of the world’s largest oil company, Rex Tillerson, or as we like to call him, Tyrannosaurus Rex (Click on image below).

There are still tickets available for Fred’s first Orange County fundraiser on Saturday, June 18th from 6:00 to 8:00 pm at his home.  Come meet actor Rib Hillis and support all the great things that Fred and his team are doing. To purchase tickets:   CLICK HERE

Last Saturday Fred and his team dodged raindrops and did some walking in Manchester with a hearty group of volunteers and the incredible Kirk the Bagpiper.  He gave away lots of Frisbees and materials and heard from the voters.  He and his team will be walking all over New Hampshire this summer and fall.  Fred hopes that you will join him on these fun and important voter outreach walks.  This is retail politics at its finest.

Fred will appear on “Conversation with the Candidate” at 7:30 pm (EDT) tonight on New Hampshire’s WMUR TV.  WMUR TV and the New Hampshire Institute of Politics host this hour long interview show for all Presidential candidates.  Fred was interviewed by James Pindell, Political Director of WMUR.com, and in Town Hall style, fielded many questions from the studio audience.

The full hour show will be up on the WMUR TV website soon:  CLICK HERE

Special thanks go out to AARP for sponsoring “Conversation with the Candidate.”  AARP leadership, members and staff were out in full force at Wednesday’s taping.  “I want to thank AARP for their sponsorship of the show,” said Karger at an AARP reception immediately after the taping.  “As an 11 year member of AARP, I am so impressed with all it does in New Hampshire and around the country.”

Last Sunday, Fred was a featured speaker along with fellow GOP Presidential candidates former Minnesota Governor Tim Pawlenty and businessman Herman Cain at the Hillsborough County Republican Flag Day Picnic.  There were 150 guests and at least 30 national and New Hampshire reporters at the Barbara Harris Campgrounds in Greenfield, NH.

Fred talked about his platform of education reform, jobs first and his longtime work with Ronald Reagan.

New Hampshire Public Radio Does Such a Great Job of Covering the Presidential Campaign

Last Friday, Fred was a guest for a full hour with NHPR’s Laura Knoy.  Topics included foreign policy, jobs and the economy, President Obama and politics along with some calls from listeners.

It was an early morning for Fred and TV and radio talk show host George Russell Tuesday on WSMN 1590 television and radio in Nashua, New Hampshire.

Chris Morrow of CNN.com has had Fred conducting iReports for her for the past 18 months.  Check out the three he did from New Hampshire on the debates and the most recent Prop 8 decision:   CLICK HERE, CLICK HERE or CLICK HERE.

Last Saturday, Fred and Southern New Hampshire Coordinator, Lee Hunter met many of the 25,000 attendees to this annual event on the Seacoast.  They gave away lots of Fred Frisbees.
