since i became senator in 2015, y office has been inundated with calls, e-mails from north carolinians telling us how obamacare has been a nightmare for them and their families. letter came from a couple who are lifelong small business owners and they are ready to retire or if they ask leaned to me -- they explained to me their premium jumped $1400 a month, forcing them to forgo health insurance altogether for the first time in their lives. i received another letter from a father of a family of four. he and his wife both work full time and they are already -- they have already gone through an entire savings to make in me during this great recession. he has seen his family premiums go up $600 a month before obamacare was signed into law, this year.th the stories are heartbreaking. the tragedy is how common they are in communities across north carolina. many families have not seen the worst of obamacare yet. unfortunately, right now at least, 1.4 million americans, including more than a quarter of a million north carolinians, are receiving cancellation notices informing them they will lo

she's prepared to do the job but in a recent poll north carolinians by a double-digit margin, they found donald trump more honest and trustworthy than hillary clinton so my question to you is simply why do you think so many north carolinians simply do not trust hillary clinton? ross: i have great faith in the people of north carolina and i have been all over this state. politics is a rough business and it's very difficult to always get the traction that you are looking for. one thing i can tell you is that hillary hudson is prepared to be commander in chief from day one.

north carolinians did not send me to washington to duplicate existing law.t is what the stock act did. i've worked with hillary clinton. she was a member of the united states senate with me. i look forward to, if she's in, to working with her on health care. she will have her hands full because obamacare will financially implode in the next 17 to 24 months. i look forward to working with her on the economy and jobs. that is the number one issue that america needs. we have americans who want jobs and can't find them. i think it's safe to say that i will work with her on national security because the threat the faces our country and the world is too great not to find a bipartisan approach to make america the leader in the world. ms. ross: certainly, the most important thing that we should always work on in a bipartisan way is national security. we all care about the people of north carolina and we all care about the people of this country. and we must come together to work on national security, defense and foreign affairs in a bipartisan way so that we have a

but i think the point is obamacare has done tremendous good for north carolinians, has allowed childrenon their parents' health care, which has been extremely helpful to so many. and it has gotten rid of, you know, the preconditions. so i think it's done so much good already that certainly we would not want to repeal it. that would be ridiculous. what we do want to do, though, is to fix some of those things. but right now the point is not obamacare, the point is who do you want to be the president of your nation? and do you want somebody who is experienced, and level headed, and has been working all of her life to help people? or do you want billionaire businessman? who you know we don't know what he's going to do. so i think that in north carolina, the vast majority are going to choose secretary clinton, as they should. >> -- on election day -- >> and i would guess that people -- >> and that is -- >> so -- >> all right i got to leave it there. >> early voting is important. >> thanks to both of you. thank you so much for being with me. running from isis with white flags flying. new vide

i grow up -- nobody can talk a south carolinians in crazy stories but i grew up in central kentucky and in the center of the town square, there is a cannonball stuck in a brick with a big brass arrow pointing to it. and if you ask people what it was from, it was the union, the union army, of which was no such thing -- the united states army had fired at the town of when it was held by confederate. if you walk a couple blocks off is that there was a marker and it said, george custer, custer state in 1874 to 1875 when he was overseeing the seventh cavalry efforts to collect taxes against moonshiners. both of these are total nonsense. [laughter] the first thing was at the town square burned to the ground in 1929 and when it burned to the ground, somebody walked through and pulled out the cannonball and when they rebuilt it he got on the latter and stuck it out there. the second thing is that the town was a unionist town, a loyal town, a patriotic town, not a treasonous town -- i mean, kentucky has a lot to answer for, i don't me to say that, but as you will see in the next part. and the ca
