Stories written by Christian Hine
A 1999 Cum Laude graduate of UNC Charlotte’s Belk College of Business, Christian has spent fifteen years as an award winning political activist and consultant in both North and South Carolina...with a little radio talk show hosting and newspaper editing thrown in for good measure. A self-described "Republitarian", Christian is an unabashed advocate of traditional free market capitalism and views passage of the FairTax as the single most effective method to combat the social manipulation and corruption found in government today. When not stressing over yet another new law, Christian enjoys treasure hunting, obscure European power metal bands, good beer, and anything related to Carolina Panthers football...except talking about the 2001 season. He's removed that from memory.

Candidate With Backbone

At the recent state convention of the NC Latino Coalition, in front of 1500 Hispanic immigrants and special interests promoting Amnesty, B.J. Lawson had a clear message: Assimilate. It takes some serious backbone to stand alone in a crowd and espouse a viewpoint unpopular to the vast majority in it.  Nice to see some folks […]

Is Marriage Government’s to Define?

With Monday’s 9th Circuit Court of Appeals decision to place a stay on a trial judge’s overruling of California’s Proposition 8, which banned same sex marriage, the social media has been tweeting debates that range from the intriguing to the patently absurd.  Here, hopefully, is an intriguing one. We hear from the proponents of same-sex […]

For the Children? Not Exactly.

Judy Kidd, President of the North Carolina Classroom Teachers Association, recently addressed Charlotte’s CAUTION (Common Americans United to Inspire Our Nation), with a message rather critical of the National Teachers Association (NEA). The question asked can not be any clearer. Between the two organizations, which is actually supporting teachers while simultaneously seeking practices that are in the […]

Yearning For The Brink

Based on America’s economy today versus where it was 18 months ago, before Obama “brought it back from the brink” – I prefer the “brink.” Now that we can actually measure the results of Obama’s economic policies, it seems perfectly clear that America has been on the wrong track and is far worse off today. […]
