Contact: Jeff Sadosky, 571-730-1010; www.Fred08.com

 MC LEAN, Va., Nov. 14 /Standard Newswire/ -- Today the Fred Thompson campaign announced its Students For Fred National and State Leadership Teams.  These student volunteers will be actively leading the Fred Thompson grassroots efforts on college campuses across the nation.

Matthew Farrar will serve as the Florida Chairman as well as a National Co-Chair of Students for Fred Thompson.  A senior political science major at Florida State University, Farrar has previously served on the 2006 Charlie Crist Gubernatorial campaigns and has worked on numerous state races throughout Florida.

"Sen. Fred Thompson has made it clear that he is the best candidate to lead our country into a strong and secure future," said Matthew Farrar. "He has shown incredible leadership capabilities, and has a solid vision of where this country needs to go.  With a focus on grassroots campaigning, I look forward to spreading his message across the country to my fellow students.  I am honored and excited to serve as a National Co-Chairman and the Florida Chair, and I am ready to get to work in engaging students in the issues that are crucial to our country's future"

Marianne Brennan is a senior political science major at the College of Charleston, and she will serve as a National Co-Chair.   A native of Arlington, Virginia, she has been the Opinions Editor of the College of Charleston's student newspaper, the George Stre et Observer since her junior year. 

"I am honored to serve as a National Co-Chair for Students for Fred Thompson," said Marianne Brennan.  "Senator Thompson is the true consistent conservative in this race with the principles and values we need leading our nation as we face increasing challenges down the road.  I look forward to spreading his message on my campus as well as on campuses across the country."

"We are very pleased to have these students volunteering their time to lead our youth effort on campuses throughout the country," said Randy Enwright, National Political Director.  "The youth vote has increasingly become a crucial voting bloc during the last two presidential elections.  Senator Fred Thompson recognizes the importance of the youth vote and has created this national youth effort - Students for Fred - to spread his consistent conservative message to young Americans all across the country."
