What I did on July 4th

By Joe Wilson

On The 4th of July, I walked, ran, shook a bunch of hands, and I smiled a lot, because I felt like smiling. Greensboro is a great city on Independence Day because everywhere I went I met really good people who care about their families and our collective futures. Some of those people are shown here.

I believe we are going to have to care about each other even more in the coming months as our financial woes worsen, so remember everyone is having a tough time of it . Live and let live,  and if you can help someone, do it.

We need to remember that we are all in this together and we deserve hard work from the people we elect . We cannot afford to elect more self serving individuals who only want to line their pockets with the contents of ours,those who prefer status to hard work.

Stay away from candidates who have become real accustomed to being in office for long periods but have provided no hard evidence of leadership. Who are perfectly o.k. with the stagnant status quo and all of the corruption that unchallenged power brings to those susceptible to it.
