I do not remember a national level candidate visiting a gunshow, ever.  Our state level people do, and they have been known to show up at shoots as well (and do actual shooting).

I may be mistaken, but I believe the republican party in Florida has prohibited any other candidates from appearing at gun shows.  I don't know how this works, and as of this moment I cannot back up my statement - its just something I read.  I will do some research.


I found it!
