Taking Nominations

So after the latest on John Edwards came out Saturday afternoon I thought to myself that on our next North Carolina poll I might ask if people thought he was the worst person in the world.

I'm not going to do that but it actually did get me thinking of a good set of poll questions- who are you most proud and least proud to call a North Carolinian?

I'd like to narrow it down to about five choices on each front and put it on our next poll of the state, which will go into the field next weekend.

I think the 'proudest' category has to include Michael Jordan, Billy Graham, and Andy Griffith. The 'least proud' one definitely starts with Edwards. Who else should we throw in the mix on either count?

  2. The biggest question is how high up Jesse Helms will be on BOTH lists.

  3. This might be too complicated, but "Other" as an option and then allow the person to specify.

    Be curious to see if people have someone in mind across the board.

  4. The Hornets' owner - George Shinn, right?

  6. George Shinn no longer lives in NC, he owns the New Orleans Hornets and lives in The Big Easy.
