Could you do a better job in the NC General Assembly than what we’ve seen over the last couple of years?
Preparation Meets Opportunity
The Bill of Rights is not a list of American privileges granted to citizens by Congress, only to be protected at the pleasure of the courts. Rather, the Bill of Rights enumerates human rights which are the birthright of everyone born on this planet. To varying degrees, these rights are muted by the power-hungry around the globe, but they cannot be legitimately granted or withdrawn by any earthly entity.
If the last three sentences made perfect sense to you . . .
YOU ARE INTELLECTUALLY PREPARED!
If you think you can do a better job in the NC General Assembly than those who are currently there, would you like to prepare for a run and create your own “luck” next year? Well . . .
THIS IS YOUR OPPORTUNITY!

- Rep. Paul Stam (R, District 37, Wake)

We are also looking for people to primary Agriculture Commissioner Steve Troxler, and Reps. John Fraley (NCH-095, Iredell), Ted Davis (NCH-019, New Hanover), and Allen McNeill (NCH-078, Moore/Randolph)
Filing ends on December 21, 2015, so you don't have a lot of time to make this happen if you are going to run next year, and make the difference you want to make in Raleigh. It’s important to note that running for an open seat is much, much easier than running against an incumbent.
Check out the districts online and see if you qualify to run in any of them. If you think you can do better than those currently in the General Assembly, here's your chance to prove it—by doing it!
