Does Fayetteville fall within "Western Carolina"? I have a sister that lives near there.
You bet. Fayetteville is in my District. I'd be honored to meet your sister, let her figure out whether I might be a good Congressman, and receive her support. Please e-mail her, copy to me (links on my website) and we'll go from there.
This is EXACTLY the sort of person to person reference that I'm hoping a few thousand Freepers can make. Never underestimate the power of the Internet, especially in the hands of FReepers.
Cordially,
