Don Vaughan on the record
On transparency and accountability:
“North Carolina needs to have more open government than we’ve had in the past. I truly believe that the meetings law and the public records law needs [...]
political nonsense
Monday, September 22nd, 2008This mess with the mortgage “crisis” has been allowed to happen in large part as a by-product of ridiculous party politics. Instead of “crisis” I feel cataclysm is a better term. My six year old daughter is estimated to be $100,000 dollars in debt 15 years before she enters the workforce.
In 2003, the Democratic members [...]
combustible solutions
Sunday, September 14th, 2008The day before the great filling station robbery occurred I was riding around with a videographer and a campaign staffer talking about issues and looking back at my life in and around Greensboro over the past 40 years. We were talking about my developing a plan for getting NC ready for the energy revolution that [...]
We were alone.
Saturday, September 13th, 2008On my drive to work yesterday morning I noted that oil was down. The price of gas was coming down, both typical occurrences during an election.

Don “PAC-Man” Vaughan: Under the influence
Tuesday, July 29th, 2008“Why does Progress Energy* have an interest in Don Vaughan’s campaign?… Why does he get money from every PAC left, right and otherwise?

the view from the bottom…
Tuesday, July 8th, 2008How comforting it must be to look up at the rescue boat after you have sunk to the bottom.That’s what the citizen’s of the Cardinal area must be feeling after hearing that it is going to be illegal to do to someone what has been done to them.
Is it just me or does the timing [...]
What I did on July 4th
Monday, July 7th, 2008On 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 [...]
Where do you stand?
Sunday, July 6th, 2008I posted on Jon Lowder’s blog recently and I feel the issue is worth keeping alive for everyone’s sake.
