He hasn't been in a race since then, until now, and I doubt his opponent has any money to 'examine every aspect of his activities'.<br /><br />It's my understanding that the More at Four program is designed for lower-income families with children at-risk for learning problems in school and, later, not graduating from high school. As someone who doesn't personally know Soucek but is aware he owns more than one rental house in Blowing Rock (a rather pricey real estate market), I'm puzzled about how his kid qualifies for such a program.<br /><br />Note: I'm not attacking the child, I'm puzzled about the Politician Father.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6194583.post-19287241517481139222012-05-22T07:37:53.588-05:002012-05-22T07:37:53.588-05:00Who said he "claimed poverty"?

Don't you people even consider that if there was some real scandal there he would have been exposed long before this? You don't get through a nasty political campaign without having every aspect of your activities examined by the opposition. Since their have been ZERO reports of any wrongdoing on his part with regard to his children in the more and four program, it's safe to assume that you don't have anything!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6194583.post-6097260057122074072012-05-22T06:25:36.889-05:002012-05-22T06:25:36.889-05:00Children are off limits.
