JV: Data Centers and AI are issues that every politician will have to deal with. Factor in the potent propaganda from China sweeping the Left and the Non Patriot Left, and it is a conundrum of massive proportions.

Like it or not, AI is here to stay. The problem is how do we police AI, and that is mostly a federal, but also a state issue. I am in favor of heavily curtailing AI in some obvious sectors, while pushing forward in the other obvious directions, including, but not limited to: Defense of our Republic (this is about our joint survival, and World History reminds us freedom can be a fleeting imperative); The Cure of Chronic Health Issues and Medical Advances (especially,the final cure for Cancer); Finally, Gaining the Limited Governments WE Deserve (1. The advanced understanding of where the Waste, Fraud and Abuse is actually hidden, and prosecuting its destruction, especially the complete demise of those that traffic in it. 2. A substantial paring of the government workforce at all levels of government, excepting the military and first responders.); Complete Energy Domination (this can and must happen, and solar panels /windmills will never be the complete answer); All Levels of Law Enforcement (especially securing our borders and enforcing our immigration laws) ... These issues declared, just to name a few, must be radically enhanced by AI, other issues to help our People, although maybe less important, must also be acted upon as soon as is possible.

AI can and must be used to help preserve and protect our People; however, it must be pristine in its origination, and there is a conundrum that all levels government must govern effectively, and in a manner befitting the teachings of Jesus Christ to every extent possible.

A "Woman's Right to Choose," in such extreme circumstances when it pertains to life and death, will always be a subject that will need proper legislation, and further adjudication.

It is a life and death situation.

Washingtonian: We would all been better off in Washington, with the election of their officials, if the Local GOP had kept their sophistic hands out of that election, where there was a so-called conservative majority, albeit abjectly slim.

In local politics, there has always been a 'a ROT locally,' but blaming the good Conservatives that endeavor to do right by their constituents, will not solve the issue that it will take a real conservative majority to make the necessary changes to dispose of the 'rot,' and for that to occur, it will take this local electorate to pay close attention the candidates, and elect who is real, who is proven.

No about Iran; that is why they have gone to the streets to protest and many have died trying to deserve a modicum of freedom.

Yes, I would name name myself and Hood for being good, decent, honest, and very competent politicians, but we can NOT do it all by ourselves; nor can those other good politicians in local government, and don't you and others in the electorate ever stop to ask yourselves why we, and others have had so little help over the years in limiting the scope of government, and ending corruption.

Obviously, they like that form of government, or they would stop electing those politician who, conversely, are not good, decent, honest, and very competent politicians.

This is not only a problem on Beaufort County's Board of County Commissioners, but a problem with every governing body in Beaufort County ... So tell me where I am wrong to well understand that the electorate is responsible for their government.

Washingtonian: I have and will continue to do everything I can locally to make government more effective; even getting rid of Limited Voting, which is currently constitutional; however, I am just one Conservative always in search of 3 more ...

But Washingtonian, blaming all good elected leaders, along with the bad, will always help to promote an ignorant electorate, and we just cannot afford that in this Representative Republic, not in these desperate times, because ultimately: The People always get the government they deserve in this Constitutional Republic. It is that simple.

What Big Bob considers extremism was, and is a facet of what it means to be a true patriot, which the vast majority of Democratic Socialists are not, including all of their recent presidents, and failed contenders for that office.

Will Simmons and Washingtonian: Governments can be fixed, or I would NOT endure all I have endured personally to attempt to right the listing ship of Beaufort County government, a public entity of what should be of great concern to every Beaufort County citizen, who cares about our future, especially those of us that have called this land home for many generations.

Accordingly, I disagree with the premise that all representatives are useless; I know too many good ones. At the nexus of your consistent pessimism is that we absolutely do NOT have a majority of good, decent representatives here in Beaufort County serving at all levels of governing; NO not enough ... I will agree with you there ...

However, how do we fix this critical element of a proper functioning self governed society, and most precisely here locally?

The only answer to the fixing of that problem is solely up the public; the electorate of the self-governed; picking better, more capable politician one at a time ... And, it is up to the People to choose that most worthy politician; one by one; each and every one.

Paying close attention by the public is part of that noble process, and should be taken seriously.

Will: The metaphor - "I'm okay; you're okay" - does not work in today's political landscape.

If the very best politicians are not elected going forward, we may prove to 'NOT be determined to survive as a Constitution Republic.'

You do remember the Vegetable Biden Administration ... Right?

It is just not that complicated: The Left is bereft of all common sense, and all common decency, and this is me, with all my knowledge attained, just being kind because I could innumerate and go quite deep.

Is the Republican Party the answer? Maybe, but only if we rid ourselves of most, if not all of the RINOs.

The Democratic Socialist party, which by my political recollection began in 2007, has finally, and now completely given themselves over to the Non Patriot Left, and this Leftist bend in their road will either kill their pathetic political party, or destroy this Representative Republic completely. It may well be a zero sum game here.

Is the Republican Party the answer? No ... Not yet ... Certainly NOT if the GOP tries to become the "party of the Big Tent," that special place where clear thinking decisions made, and the common sense of true patriotism will go to die.

The cheating was widespread, and real, and knowing this very real truth regarding the 2020 Election is certainly a litmus test measuring whether one is actually smart ... or not.

Big Bob, so is your "White Supremacy" comment of condemnation a perfect litmus test as to what is important, or very real is this real world of "Normal vs Crazy."

Well Big Bob ...

If anyone can be an apologist for the Non Patriot Left, it would be you Big Bob. When it comes to Authoritarianism and Fascism the Leftist has a solid listing on that foul piece of Anti-American politics, which of course, is Left.

Normal American's remember the Non Patriot Left during the Summer of George, and how they employed that terrible summer of Leftist Fascism and Covid to install the Vegetable President, who, like yourself, continued to spewed and spouted that the greatest enemy of the American is "White Supremacy."

Anyone that stupidly spews something that ignorant regarding - "White Supremacy" - is not normal, and while I do refrain from judging people crazy or insane, NOT NORMAL is getting pretty close to the reality of it.

Big Bob: As per the US Constitution, the Legislatures of our independent states thus united are in charge of all elections, not President Trump.

Thanks RINO Hunter for the mention: You can and have rooted out RINOs in the past. Please continue to do so.

Most Of today's Americans do not understand how our government works.

Our education industry has done a poor job, in an overall sense, by NOT informing our people correctly by what entails the societal machinations of a self governed people.

Van Zant: Hood began serving on the Beaufort County Commission with me as a fellow Republican in 1996. Since then, Commissioner Richardson has consistently acted and voted as a conservative Republican since that time. This is why I trust him to be the "Real Republican," along with myself, in every room I occupy.

This is what I know about The Hood, and this is how I judge The Hood.

Buzz: Your statement regarding the building of a better government, "An informed public would really help this," is where we start, and I am rededicating my energies to that maxim of building a better public to know what is real.
