	Osawatomie Home To GOP Roots - KCCommunityNews.com
		In addition, in 1859, John Brown was viewed as a hero by many in Kansas, and Osawatomie’s strong association with Brown made Osawatomie the natural place for the Republican Party to meet and form as a formal political party in Kansas.
		Osawatomie was placed close to the Missouri border in the midst of pro-slavery settlements to counteract the activities of pro-slavery political advocates, which made Osawatomie a target for pro-slavery attacks and a forward base for both militant and peaceful abolitionists and Free Staters alike.
		Osawatomie’s founders risked much more for their political convictions than merely incurring the social displeasure of their opponents; they risked their lives for their political convictions.
