An “evangelical organizer” who works for the presidential campaign of Rep. Michele Bachmann was “charged with terrorism in Uganda after being arrested for possession of assault rifles and ammunition in February 2006, just days before Uganda’s first multi-party elections in 20 years.” Franke-Ruta reports Peter Waldron spent 37 days in a prison ouside Kampala, with the charges later dropped. A movie about his ordeal is said to be in the works. On Saturday, Waldron helped get-out-the-vote efforts in Ames, Iowa for Bachmann, reportedly declining “repeatedly” to give his name to a reporter.
