Briefly describe your spiritual beliefs and values.

In the words of Thomas Jefferson, "say nothing of my religion. It is known to my God and myself alone. Its evidence before the world is to be sought in my life; if that has been honest and dutiful to society, the religion which has regulated it cannot be a bad one." --Letter to John Adams (11 January 1817) In other words, as per the US Constitution, "no religious Test shall ever be required as a Qualification to any Office or public Trust under the United States".

Additional comment from candidate:

I stand for Truth, Honor, and Liberty. I follow the precepts of Thomas Paine and Thomas Jefferson. I support and defend the Declaration of Independence and the US Constitution as amended. I believe in balanced budgets, a strong national defense that does not include boondoggles nor foreign entanglements, right actions for right reasons, openness in public service, and a smaller government that serves the People.
