Election 2012 -- The Real Challenges Facing North Carolina

During the campaign season, candidates often talk about issues that aren't actually important to the well-being and prosperity of the people in North Carolina.

Print them out, and take them with you when you go to campaign events. Ask the questions that will force candidates to move beyond talking points and rhetoric.
