Armed with an iPad, former Gov. Tim Pawlenty took to Facebook on Tuesday as he continued his presidential campaign kick off.

Pawlenty held a 25-minute Facebook town hall in Coral Gables, Fla., Tuesday, answering questions from online commenters who could watch a live streaming video.

The two-term governor took six questions, which covered ethanol, health care reform, the size of government, education, foreign oil and Israel.

Pawlenty read the questions himself from an iPad, leaving little opportunity for any surprises in the town-hall setting. The first question started by stating Pawlenty's ethanol stance was "courageous," then asking the two-term governor what the other candidates thought about the subsidies.

Pawlenty answered that the other candidates will probably get asked about it sometime soon.

On Israel, the former governor said that President Obama had "opened an unusual divide" between the United States and Israel when Obama said last week that the pre-1967 borders should be the basis for negotiations of an Israeli-Palestinian peace agreement.

This isn't Pawlenty's first foray onto Facebook: He also launched his exploratory committee with a video on the social networking site.

Pawlenty concludes his Florida swing today, and will be in Washington Wednesday before he heads up to New York and New Hampshire.
