Hey, presidential candidates: What about here?

Day after day, I receive e-mail after e-mail on these presidential campaigns and candidate visits to North Carolina. We haven't even gotten Chelsea to show up in Cleveland County. It seems to me, at least, a smart candidate would see Cleveland County has had a number of economic challenges in recent years. People might be receptive to listening ... if someone shows up.

My latest e-mail includes Bill Clinton hitting 11 cities and towns in the state, none of them in Cleveland County.

"The Clinton campaign today announced new details of President Bill Clinton’s visit to the Tar Heel State this Tuesday, April 29 and Wednesday, April 30. Clinton attends “Solutions for America” events in Boone, North Wilkesboro, Elkin, and Mt. Airy on Tuesday, and in Apex, Sanford, Lillington, Dunn, Hope Mills, Lumberton, and Whiteville on Wednesday."

Have fun in Dunn.
