When
Paul Wellstone first ran for for office in 1990, he
had limited funds, but lots of other assets: creativity,
energy...and a bus. In order to meet Minnesotans all
over the state, he bought a bus, painted it green and
called it the Wellstone Bus. Voila - a legend was born!
Fun
facts:
- The
bus is 34 years old
- It
spent the past 6 years in a museum in Hibbing
- The
engine was completely rebuilt after the '96 campaign.
It works a lot better now!
