Five young men — “The Young Reveres” — are traveling across the country interviewing people on camera about their thoughts on the new health-care law and medical care in America, and providing information to those who don’t know much about the issue.
Wideman brothers Nick, 19; Chris, 20; Matt, 22, and Mike, 34, and friend David Gittess, 20, are gathering people’s opinions for Revere America, an organization formed by former Republican New York Gov. George Pataki “dedicated to advancing common sense public policies rooted in freedom and free markets,” according to the organization’s website. Another Wideman brother, Eddie, 16, will join the cause later on.

Young Reveres July 26
7/26 by Matt Wideman
Mileage 2,009
We were able to sleep in this morning and got some much needed rest. The drive to Goshen, Indiana was probably the most pleasant drive we’ve had thus far on our Revere Rides Again tour — with open roads and lots of corn fields. Although we weren’t planning to attend the Elkhart County Fair until tomorrow, we couldn’t help ourselves from going to check it out after dinner. When we arrived the stands were filled to a sold-out crowd, l to see Lady Antebellum. Since there wasn’t even a place to stand and watch the performance, we walked through the event and understood why it’s the second largest county fair in the nation.
One booth we are particularly excited about is the local radio station, Froggy 102.7, which invited us to come back tomorrow for a possible live interview about our tour for Revere America At the Republican booth, we asked what topics people in their county are most concerned with. They explained 80 percent of voters express the healthcare bill as their main concern and feel repeal of government-controlled health care is going to be the deciding issue in November’s general elections. It’s of particular importance to people in the area, because there’s a leading cancer research center that will be drastically affected by this legislation. At the Democrats’ booth, we asked the same question. Being a Blue county for the last 30 years, they said voters will want to keep their representatives who have been in office, in office. When I asked about the healthcare bill and why they felt this was going to benefit our nation the gentleman couldn’t give me anything more than “because everyone will have healthcare.” I explained a few reasons why I thought it would be detrimental to our country. They were not informed on the topic and I think they realized that after a few minutes of discussing the issue. I think it was a great idea to make Goshen a stop and look forward to seeing what’s to come tomorrow!

Young Revere’s July 23
Driving, driving, and more driving. Today was another travel day with
nothing really happening. I did manage to get a few pictures of Matt
washing the car, but corn fields and highways filled most of our day.
When we made it to Indianapolis, the electricity of the race already
consumed the air even though the race isn’t for another two days. We are looking forward to meeting a lot of people at the Brickyard 400 and we hope to have an interview with the Indianapolis Star tomorrow so we definitely have something exciting to look forward to.
