Lincoln Dinner 2014 Videos: Reps. Peter King and Bob Turner

In his keynote address, Rep. King talked about America, about New York City and Queens as well as his bid for the presidency. He called on the Republican Party to move forward in Queens and get rid of the intramural fights and stand together. 

Here are the videos and photos of former Congressman Bob Turner introducer and keynote speaker Congressman Peter King at the 139th Anniversary Lincoln Day Dinner. Republican Congressman Bob Turner formerly represented New York’s Congressional District 9, after he won the epic special election battle against longtime Democrat David Weprin in an overwhelmingly Democratic district, becoming the first Republican to represent the area in over eighty years. Turner was mentored by Homeland Security Chair, Congressman Peter King and today they remain very close friends.

In his keynote address, Rep. King talked about America, about New York City and Queens as well as his bid for the presidency. He called upon the Republican Party to move forward in Queens and get rid of the intramural fights and stand together. In speaking about the 2016 presidential race, Congressman King mentioned that he has been up to New Hampshire five times and plans to visit again next month. He will bring the same message about America that he delivered tonight – the message of hard work, of determination, doing our best, not looking for something for nothing, not having the government holding us down. With the Obama presidency and de Blasio as mayor, our city or country cannot afford either of them any longer.
