    We will report the video in a series of articles. The first includes the opening comments by Buzz Cayton, the Chair of the Beaufort Patriot TEA Party. In the first segment he explains the procedures to be used. In Round 1 each candidate was given two minutes to introduce themselves. The state candidates went first, followed by the candidates for Beaufort County Commissioner. After the introductory round, each candidate was then allowed three minutes to address the issues and their positions on those issues.
