Roy Cooper raises $3.4 million in first 24 hours of his Senate candidacy. The former North Carolina governor set a fundraising record with his day-one campaign haul.

And ppl think this is honorable? Lmfao While ppl face homelessness, lack of food, no access to doctors or meds, get kidnapped by nazis (citizens or not), he's somehow the good guy for raising millions? And you wonder why nothing changes and we go around and around in a circle. Jfc 😫

He is an honest man, knows laws, isn't politically insane(doesn't believe in abusing his office for anyone)! NOW, he would make an AWESOME President! He believe in stability, accountability, unity, equality and the constitution of the UNITED STATES OF AMERICA. His word is his bond-very trustworthy.

I think you're not familiar with NC. I didn't say it was a huge difference, but he's not over 70. Over the past 10 years, we've had two really good dem candidates. Young, former military, educated. Both lost. I helped on Dan McCready campaign. Governor Cooper has a great chance

But now your candidate is beholden to those people, who are not their constituents. Scale that up to the super wealthy spending money on candidates across the country. State offices, federal offices, you name it. Who are they going to listen to? You and me? Or the guys keeping them in office?

We could allow state and national political parties to provide starter funding for candidates who don't have much, but that's it. Could tie the amount to a base number and then multiply the base by whatever the pay differential is for federal employees in that area, or an average for the state.

But you run into the risk that you get candidates who are beholden to the political party machine, which frankly has become a business more than anything. Every dollar given to a candidate is really a loan, and the pay off is the legislative agenda. Even you and I. But we're not giving millions.

Electeds are not beholden to anyone. They could actually do the right thing regardless of who sends in money. Corporate money isn't speech, despite what SCOTUS said in Citizens United, but citizens should maintain the right to donate to candidates who aren't in their district.

"Electeds are not beholden to anyone." They should be beholden to their constituents. That's the whole point of a representative government. Otherwise why do we bother having elections at all? The reality is they're beholden to the people who give them money so they can keep the job.

As a termed out Governor of the State of NC I am of the mindset that he will win Senator Tillis' seat. He has an incredible record to run on. And it wasn't just Democrats that handed him the Governor's Mansion back to back.

North Carolina's presidential vote was hacked (Harris won) so if you donated, make sure he insists on a full hand recount, not scanned pictures of the ballots because those are being altered too, via hacking of the voting machines and tabulators.

Not exactly. There's a portion of the harder left wing of the DNC party that's not satisfied with those that aren't as left wing as they are. They're pushing a more ideological purity agenda. Compromise is seen as a sign of weakness. One could argue that we shouldn't be compromising with MAGA...

....to begin with. However there is a reality to face that much of the country is not as left wing as major cities in more left leaning states. In order to win elections/get things done there you gotta compromise. Compromise itself isn't a bad thing. Its compromising to the point that....
