Sentor Helms was avery good senator. Its ashame we have to see him go but he well be in a better place been with the lord. I know he wasa very good man . He done for our state that know body else has every done he stood up to thise other people and make N C the great State that it is today. If was still lving and was still in office he would have these gas pricing now and the country would have better job for the poor man and jobs that people can related to of there past there abilty to do so. Every body isn’t cut out for office jobs and some rather not have office jobs. so what wrong with factor worked. So these job going over sea or to the west country aren’t right to the people of the USA. We should look after our people USA that love us not country that care for us. Let us all pray for our country. God bless Amen
