Perdue gets teachers' thanks at YouTube

Submitted by mainchapel on Thu, 04/17/2008 - 2:55pm.

While checking in at YouTube to see if I've missed any new television ads, I found a long list of new video clips showing North Carolina teachers (mostly) thanking Bev Perdue for her work on education issues. Each one tells a little story of sorts, mentioning what Perdue has done on a good long list of matters. Even after digging through the newspaper archives two weeks ago, I was impressed with the list.

Someone asked on another thread yesterday if we could discuss one leader without disparaging another one. I answered with the links to my newspaper archive notes, but I should add these links to that response.

And Helms begat Reagan...


Arguably, Ronald Reagan's Helms enabled win in the 1976 NC primary was all the encouragement he needed to try again in 1980, setting the stage for the Reagan Revolution and synergistic escapades like this one...

TrueMeckDem on Myers Park Pat

"My opinion of Pat has changed over the years. I used to think he was truly a man of the people but the longer he has been mayor, the less I think of him.

As with most cities, Charlotte has three political parties: Dem, Rep, and Chamber of Commerce. Pat is definitely the puppet of the COC here. What is good for business is good for Charlotte and Pat ... very personable guy, he has gotten a bunch of Dems in these parts to vote for him but I don't trust him."
