Strong grow great. Those who have the most he things should have the most help. I believe the middle class comes first and everybody had the opportunity to grow strong and great. Last week president obama said everyone of his policies are on the ballot. Senator hagan voted with obama 97 of the time. She served as a rubber stamp to his failed polcies. She promised she would go to washington to get things done, and she has broken her promise. We need a senator who knows what it is like to make ends meet while raising a family.
