The stop, which had not been previously announced, is scheduled for the same day Palin signs books at a store in in the Dallas area.

The former Alaska governor is also making an appearance at Fort Bragg in North Carolina during her tour.

[KittyWampus]

10. leave a copy of her book on top of each soldier's Memorial the way Obama put a Presidential Coin?
