A great American that lived a full life dies on Independence Day. John Adams and Thomas Jefferson did the same.
He was opposed to the UN, was pro-life, pro-gun, against racial preferences, one of the senators that actually voted for conservative government almost his entire career.
May God Bless his family and he will be missed.
“...Helms was an outspoken conservative politician whose attacks against communism, liberal elitism and some of the civil rights legislation made him one of the most controversial and loathed prominent political figures in North Carolina history...”
God bless you Senator Jesse...thank you for your unflinching American Patriotism. My prayers to your family.
