Thoughts of an average American voter

Reading through your paper, I truly enjoy the public being made aware of current events, especially those dear to those of us who enjoy residing in Western North Carolina. I am just an average American voter who gets their news from ALL sources available to construct a responsible assessment of current events and the situation American’s face. 

I will not form my opinion from the right or the left – Fox News, Real America Voice, Meet the Press, MSNBC and/or CNN. I will not quote a general who should be court martialed or anything from the government that protects itself from being examined closely. 

America can stand alone and does not need to spend trillions on global affairs when our own live in the streets unfed. I could rant, but it serves no purposes and I’m sure there are over 741 “experts” out there who would claim I’m an idiot. 

However, there is a lack of support for our area, our Western North Carolina neighbors, still sleeping on the ground after Hurricane Helene. I will simply pray and focus on efforts to support all the average American voters. 

Kudos to your staff [Macon Sense] and your responsible reporting. Job well done. Bravo Zulu. [Well done.]
