I ran into a newspaper article on this event coming up, it is called Civic Fest. It looks pretty neat, I'll probably go check it out. Here is the main link and here is the exhibit list
Quote: CivicFest is a vibrant civic festival celebrating Minnesota and American history, democracy, and the U.S. Presidency. The event, produced by the Minneapolis Saint Paul 2008 Host Committee, will be held August 29 through September 4, 2008 at the Minneapolis Convention Center. CivicFest is a once-in-a-lifetime family-friendly experience, featuring more than 35 educational and entertaining exhibits, including; historic memorabilia and artifacts, a scale model of the White House, a re-created Convention floor, a stage featuring live performances, an actual President’s official limousine, a full-scale replica of the White House Oval Office, multimedia and interactive exhibits featuring significant historical objects, an interactive kiosk that explores the lives and administrations of the twelve 20th – century Presidents, and a 60,000 square-foot Marketplace, showcasing a variety of products to the CivicFest audience, with an emphasis on locally produced and designed merchandise.
Building off of the excitement around the 2008 Republican National Convention, CivicFest will showcase Minnesota to Convention delegates and media and will allow local citizens to be involved in the Convention experience. CivicFest is expected to attract 150,000 attendees.

Sounds like it's MADE for OC.

It is at the MPLS Convention Center, I thought there was common wisdom 'round these parts to always conceal very well there.
