In North Carolina, we are no stranger to hurricanes, but hopefully, federal funding will remain in place.

This was a citizen who had gone to render aid to somebody who needed help. It cost him his life. We owe him a responsibility to go back and make it safe so it doesn't happen to someone else.

Unfortunately, we have a history with hurricanes. We have a fairly standard operating process.

Basically we are just monitoring the storm and if it does come our way, we feel we are ready.

During a political campaign everyone is concerned with what a candidate will do on this or that question if he is elected except the candidate; he's too busy wondering what he'll do if he isn't elected

I will not refuse to do something that I can do.
