2023 MS Governor's race: on Principles & Values


Brandon Presley: Cousin of Elvis Presley; born one month before Elvis died

And, yes, he's the cousin of Elvis Presley. "My granddaddy and Elvis' granddaddy where brothers," he explains. "In fact my grandfather carried Elvis and Gladys down to visit Vernon, his daddy at the state penitentiary, when he did a little time for altering a check." They never met; he was born one month before Elvis died in 1977.

Brandon Presley: Governor has a chance to be the "hands and feet" of Jesus

If you want to know my religious philosophy, this is it. The Governor has a chance to be the "hands and feet" of Jesus. Forget political partisanship, we ALL should want to help those who Jesus said we should care about. Before I made my decision to run, @MabusKatelyn made me promise that we would use the power and prestige of the Governor's office to reach those who are homeless, downtrodden and forgotten about.

Tate Reeves: Ensure Mississippi children learn true history of America

The Governor wants to spend three million dollars for this patriotic fund. Critics say it sounds like a page from President Donald Trump's America First playbook. According to the governor money would be used to make sure Mississippi school children learn the true history of America instead of far left socialist teaching that emphasizes its shortcomings.
