Cal is an Iraq War Veteran and former state senator.

He's been endorsed by the Sierra Club, the Teamsters, the North Carolina Association of Educators, and General Wes. Clark

Please consider checking out his website and helping him defeat Richard Burr.

5. It's required by law that they say that
Edited on Fri Apr-16-10 11:58 AM by Clintonista2
It's called the "Stand By Your Ad" provision of the Bipartisan Campaign Reform Act.

2. Good Ad, but Dems have also helped ship jobs overseas too
NAFTA originated under George H.W. Bush but Clinton got it passed.

And Obama wants free trade deals with Colombia and Panama passed. And Obama's Economic chief, Larry Summers, favors oursourcing IT jobs to India.

I like Cal's ad, but will he stand up to Prez Obama's free trade deals?

4. I think the point is
for the first time since NAFTA, concerted effort and awareness is being brought to the issue. i think its gaining momentum and is ramping up. Cal sounds like he wants to be part of that momentum - NC a strong former manufacturing state - if he means what he says in the ad.

Yeah.... but this good ad is about Senator BURR of NC & Cunningham.... not Dems in general. And they've got 30 seconds.


Try staying on subject. :eyes:

8. How about this
Without fear, without giveaways to the rich, if the word no didn't exist our republican cohorts would be completely silent. Their hands would be tied There logic would be transparent even to their biggest fans.
