Under what circumstances should abortion be allowed?
Rape. Incest.
What should the United States do to help eradicate the threat of radical Islamic terrorism?
We must understand why they have become radicalized in the first place. I believe that they are here because we are there. We need to remove our troops from the middle east. Period. We don't belong there, we should have never gone there in the first place. Its their fight, let them fight it. That alone will make our country much more safe.
What in the nature of mankind caused America’s Founders to carefully define, separate, and limit powers in the Constitution?
The fact that they came from a land that have its leader unlimited power. A leader that thought he ruled the world. Our God-given free will.

By cutting spending on pointless endeavours. By ending the wars and bringing our troops home from a nearly twenty year war of which we should have never been involved.
What education or experience qualifies you to hold the office for which you seek election?
I am am American citizen. An average Joe. I read, I pay attention and I listen.

Is there anything else you would like voters to know about you?
I am not a politician. I am one of you. I fear for our future just as much as you do. The two party deadlock in Washington will never end unless you vote in someone to upset the so-called balance. Representation of all people was the original idea of the founders, tired of being unheard. Let your voice be heard!
