RALEIGH (AP) -- Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton says she's better prepared to handle the nation's economy than presumed Republican nominee John McCain.
Clinton criticized the Arizona senator for opposing government intervention in the nation's credit and mortgage crisis during a stop at a community college in Raleigh.
She says the government needs to help displaced workers.
Clinton says the government seems to be more focused on how people lose their jobs than how people can find new jobs. She also says there's been too little effort to help people get new skills while they have their existing jobs.
The New York senator says Pell Grants should be extended to workers enrolled in education programs designed to upgrade their skills.
North Carolina's primary is May 6.

What, hers
Be very careful what you believe when it comes out of the Clinton's (or any other politicians) mouth. They call it "misspeaking", I call it lying.
"She says the government needs to help displaced workers."
Isn't she part of "government"? She could start yesterday while in the senate, at getting government's foot off my neck and their hand out of my wallet. What has she done while in the senate to help people from being "displaced" in the first place. Giving her the title of President won't make it all better.
Obama is no better, maybe worse. His "typical white people" remark gave me a glimpse into his half white heart.
McCain - I admire his past military service and devotion but he's a typical politician, shell shocked and quick tempered. Not a man I want with his hand on "The Button".
If you vote for the lesser of the evils, you still wind up with evil.
