We're all concerned about the economy. My wife Ann and I, like you, have worked hard and saved for the future and now seems have all gone away. It's time for a change. North Carolina must be a leader in job growth, have a tax system that puts more money in our families pockets, a quality of life that attracts good-paying jobs. This starts with changing a culture of corruption and mismanagement in state government. I'm Pat McCrory, the difference is leadership.
