If a women raped or going to die because of complications I Believe the woman should have this opportunity to make her own choice but she must be able to live with her decision.
What should the United States do to help eradicate the threat of radical Islamic terrorism?
Stop Iran who funds Islamic terrorIst .We should get out of Afghanistan . Let the Syrian people fight to get rid of the Islamic threat by arming and training them .
What in the nature of mankind caused America’s Founders to carefully define, separate, and limit powers in the Constitution?
I believe our Founders knew men where only men and their souls were sometimes vulnerable. They separated the powers so no one person or persons could not be compromised. The constitution should be kept intact. It should not be changed. The founders set up a set of checks and balances to protect the integrity of our branches of government. It is designed to promote honesty and discourage abuse of power.
Briefly describe your spiritual beliefs and values.
I believe in God the. father Almighty-maker of heaven and earth . I'm a Catholic and I try to live my life being a good Christian. I treat people with kindness and respect.
When you consider your views on a wide range of issues from economic and social matters to foreign policy and immigration, which of the following best describes you overall?
Very Conservative
Please provide publicly available information validating your answer to the previous question.
The economy I believe keeping the government out of our businesses and reduce regulations. We should free up money for community banks and small business and reduce regulations . We need to level the playing field between countries buying and selling products. This will help manufacturing and put Americans back to work . On Foreign policy I believe we lead by strength .America should not be the police for the world but the designer of a free world . Helping our allies when in need without putting our men and women in harms way . Immigrantion and America go together but legal immigration only . Without borders we are not a secure country, without laws we would have no justice. We have laws on the books that are not being enforced. We have other laws that need to change . I welcome all immigrants to America and would love to hear their stories but they need to come legally and we need to secure our borders .
How would you promote healthcare coverage that is adequate, affordable and accessible for all?
Healthcare Must be affordable for all Americans . The economy is growing across America with higher wages and better benefits . Businesses need good employees and this will be part of employment package. This will help the working class but the others still need healthcare that is affordable. We must get the Government out of our healthcare and away from our doctors. The government is driving prices through the roof . Heathcare can not be given for free someone has to pay for this and cannot be put on the taxpayers. Allow businesses to join together in huge purchase groups and allow individuals to come into these groups at no penalty.Driving prices down .
What role should government play in boosting the economy?
None I do not like when they pick winners and losers. The government should give incentives to encourage businesses to invest thereby growing our economy.
What changes should be made to the tax code?
Taxes have been lowered due to the new tax plan this puts more money in Americans. Every time we have a good or bad economy some county or state or the congress wants to raise taxes . I say lower taxes ever year this will continue to promote a good and healthy economy not all at once but each year lower property tax lower gas tax lower income tax . Less Spending on the State and Federal agency more fiscal responsibility.
What is the best way to bring down unemployment?
To bring down unemployment we need to train our young adults in technology,cyber security, electrical, plumbing and heating and air. The middle aged worker is often overlooked and they also need training. Training will get back to work. We need to grow manufacturing jobs. We need to stop allowing companies to hire illegals.
How would you guarantee Social Security benefits for future generations?
I would stop allowing congress and senate to dip in the funds and make them pay all of it back that has been stolen for years . As people are living longer let's get each one trained in new jobs they like this will let them continue to work and pay in without penalizing them . we need to grow the economy. We need to stop allowing none citizens to collect unless they pay into for 10 years they have been dodging the Social Security for years this is putting a heavy burden on both out social security and our hospital and healthcare system.
What education or experience qualifies you to hold the office for which you seek election?
My education of a business man for 30 years have taught me that we have a lot of work to do if we want America to stay number one in the world. We need to continue working with banking to public service utilities I know how out of control regulations can hurt banks and utilities at the same time hurt all of us in America. How higher taxes impact fees and other tax ideas can cripple a healthy economy. How allowing open borders and lawlessness can devide a nation and destroy lives . How the education system has played politics and needs to stop .
