The push poll at the bottom is ridiculous. Only a fool would attempt to answer all questions.

The intelligence community briefed Trump that Russia was almost certainly behind the hacks on the DNC and the Clinton campaign in an effort to influence our democratic process. Every American should be extremely alarmed by such news and unite to send the most extreme warning to Putin that such interference will not be tollerated because, above partisan politics, we value the democracy that we enjoy due to the sacrifices made by so many patriotic countrymen over the centuries. But rather than unite, Trump seeks to divide Americans and to aid and comfort America's enemy with "plausible denial".

Goodwin and his Democrat predecessors have screwed the east by allowing computer modelling to be used to determine risk instead of using real actual honest data. Computer models can spit our any result that one programs them for. Computer models should be banned by statute from use in rate setting.

I will probably vote Libertarian in this race, and it is because Forest is constantly draping himself around Mike Huckabee. When he ran for president, Huckabee was described by the conservative Club for Growth as a ''Christian socialist''. The Club for Growth is some of the best Reagan conservatives out there. The major conservative website RedState in this election cycle has hung a similar term on him. This election cycle, Huckabee has been out consistently endorsing the establishment candidates in the key establishment vs. Tea Party races. As a Tea Partier, I have a hard time voting for any candidate who closely associates himself with Huckabee. Forest has duped a lot of Tea Partiers, but his palling around with Mr. Anti- Tea Party of 2012, Mike Huckabee shows he is either clueless or a phony.

The NRA is not a conservative organization. Indeed it is more an incumbent protection society that a 2nd Amendment organization. It has a very long history of prostituting itself to incumbents and insiders. The real defender of the 2nd Amendment is Gun Owners of America and its NC affiliate, Grassroots North Carolina. You can belive their endorsements, but not NRA's. NRA even came close to endorsing Harry Reid last election.

In 1969, The U.S. House of Representatives voted for a national popular vote by a 338–70 margin. It was endorsed by Richard Nixon, Gerald Ford, and various members of Congress who later ran for Vice President and President such as then-Congressman George H.W. Bush, and then-Senator Bob Dole.

Past presidential candidates with a public record of support, before November 2016, for the National Popular Vote bill that would guarantee the majority of Electoral College votes and the presidency to the candidate with the most national popular votes: Bob Barr (Libertarian- GA), U.S. House Speaker Newt Gingrich (R–GA), Congressman Tom Tancredo (R-CO), and Senator Fred Thompson (R–TN).

Rich Bolen, a Constitutional scholar, attorney at law, and Republican Party Chairman for Lexington County, South Carolina, wrote:"A Conservative Case for National Popular Vote: Why I support a state-based plan to reform the Electoral College."

This seems like what they wanted all along. Eric Adams is just another puppet in their game. Where is the accountability for these so called "leaders" in 2020 that said to mask up and keep a distance. They scared us from interacting with one another and sharing our own experiences. More than ever people are waking up to this plan. Their cover-up will get them caught and expose them for who they really work for.

Over the past several years, as national director of Patriot Coalition, our general counsel Richard D. Fry and/or I have researched this issue in great detail, and debated a wide range of their "experts" across the country, many of which are available in our Article V channel (45 videos) at YouTube here:

www.youtube.com

Besides the numerous debates, I highly recommend the second video, which is one I filmed of my friend Publius in Virginia last year. I also recommend the videos with Dr. Edwin Vieira discussing an Article V Convention and COS architect Michael Farris' dangerous Parental Rights Amendment, which totally pits parental rights against government indoctrination.

Thomas Jefferson said the price of liberty is "eternal vigilance." Had it been simply defeated, the sponsors would simply reintroduce it again in the next general assembly.

That despite the shady behavior of the leadership, giving the public no notice on an issue of such great importance, and then muzzling opposition at the drive-by, pencil-whip hearing they held, the Republican leadership continues to extort votes. If only they would uphold their oaths.

We all know what happens when members don't tow-the-line by supporting what the leadership wants: their bills don't get hearings or votes in other areas. This is how the dishonorable game is played. Everyone knows it. EVERYONE.

Now, if they will play these shenanigans just to get the Article V application resolution passed, what will they do to get the amendments passed over the course of 2-3 election cycles?

Already, in neighboring states like Virginia, well-funded political PAC's are letting it be known that opponents such as Delegate Marshall and Senator Black, the two "statesmen" in Virginia blocking this insanity won't see any more donations to their campaigns, and in some cases, the establishment is funding primary opponents to run these statesmen out of the legislature in Richmond.

In North Carolina, our own Republican Lt. Governor has been trying to fast-track this process for years. Publius is right. The enemy isn't just at the gate, he's running around loose in the N.C. General Assembly with mad-con-cow.

That Republican leadership in North Carolina are driving this reckless attempt to trigger a convention and playing games with the rules and public instead of using its constitutional authority to interpose, tells me we need new leadership, and perhaps to replace most of the "scoundrels and scalawags" (N.C. Governor Zebulon Baird Vance's words) who refuse to take no for an answer. I'm certain that is what I will tell any of them that ask for my help or my money for their next campaign.

The Constitution isn't the problem. COS admits that. Why is amending it the solution, then? It isn't. I don't trust them because they don't keep their oath now. I won't trust them to be honorable at a convention or in the ratification process.

Hmm... Listening to Mr. Warren's queries about the EDC's per job costs sounded like the "shovel-ready" boondoggle of the Obama Administration's "Stimulus Bills."

Perhaps Commissioner Klemm should have simply said what Obama said: "I guess they weren't as shovel-ready as I thought." The free market doesn't need a taxpayer-funded economic development commission. Only crony-capitalists profit and the taxpayers lose...every time.

If you have to bribe businesses to move into your area, you might consider the real reasons they want tax-breaks and special deals. Are your K-12, trade and technical schools producing qualified educated workers? Is the infrastructure sufficient to allow reasonable ingress and egress of all the various stakeholders, (employees, clients, customers, etc...)

Is the tax base appealing to prospective business investors? Provide a climate that is conducive to new or expanding business ventures and "they will come." Beaufort County is a beautiful place with wonderful people, a proud history that goes back hundreds of years, and sunsets that are only a postcard-dream to folks across the country.

Without proper oversight by the commissioners, the Economic Development Commission may as well be the Warren Commission, looking for a magic bullet to explain the unexplainable.

Saundra Barnett is planning on moving down to Jacksonville, FL while out on $100,000.00 bond. She was arrested here in 2007 for stealing hydromorphone from patients at Baptist Medical Center.
