OTHER INFORMATION
QUESTIONNAIRE
OTHER IMPORTANT ISSUES
Congress should repeal the Affordable Care Act (Obamacare).
Strongly Agree
Human life begins at conception and deserves legal protection at every stage until natural death.
Strongly Agree
I am in favor of construction of a wall and other necessary infrastructure on our border that gives complete control over entering and exiting the United States.
Strongly Agree
The U.S. military should wait for militant Islamic groups to directly threaten our national security on our shores, rather than eradicate them now wherever they may be worldwide.
Strongly Disagree
The United States must maintain a nuclear arsenal that is safe, reliable, modern and numerically superior to those of potential adversaries.
Strongly Agree
I support legislation such as the First Amendment Defense Act (FADA) that would prohibit discrimination against individuals, organizations and small businesses because of their belief that marriage is only a union of one man and one woman.
Strongly Agree
The federal government should establish Common Core as a nationwide academic standard for high school graduation.
Strongly Disagree
I oppose the resettlement of Syrian refugees into the U.S. without proper vetting.
Strongly Agree
Current regulations on domestic oil exploration and drilling are more restrictive than are necessary.
Agree
It is the government’s responsibility to be sure everyone has health care and a livable income.
Strongly Disagree
Judeo-Christian values established a framework of morality which permitted our system of limited government.
Strongly Agree
More restrictive gun control laws are needed to protect public safety.
Strongly Disagree
The founders established pure democracy in the Constitution because they believed that it is the best form of government to ensure the safety and equitable treatment of all citizens.
Strongly Agree
Free enterprise and the right to private property turn mankind's natural self-interest into the most productive economic system there is.
Strongly Agree
Governments should pay to develop wind and solar energy solutions until they are economically feasible.
Strongly Disagree
Religious liberty is at risk in the United States.
Strongly Agree
Governments should define marriage as between one man and one woman; no other definition of marriage should be legalized or supported with public funds.

The United States should help defend Israel from attack by its enemies.

God, Constitution, Voters, Congress, Supreme Court
Under what circumstances should abortion be allowed?
I believe that life begins at conception.
What in the nature of mankind caused America’s Founders to carefully define, separate, and limit powers in the Constitution?
Tyranny. Our founders were all to familiar with tyrannical rulers that would impose religion, government, and taxes upon it's subjects. This is something that I fear we as a society have lost, we have forgotten where our great country came from and what has made our country great. We the people must take control of our government once again and right the ship.
Briefly describe your spiritual beliefs and values.
I am an unashamed Christian. God has blessed my entire life. He has allowed me to experience and be apart of so many things that I would have never thought possible. I am blessed beyond measure. I am not worthy of his mercy, but thankful for his grace!
Considering all issues (social, economic, national security, etc.), which of these best describes you?
Very Conservative
Please defend your answer to the previous question by referencing your publicly available track record.
I have had an A+ rating from the NRA for over 14 years. My voting record is strongly pro-life and pro-business. I believe in limited government, and my voting record backs that assertion up. I am a social and fiscal conservative. I believe that government should exist to serve the citizens, not the other way around. I give my personal cell phone to anyone that will take it. When you call I may not have the answer but I will work to find the answer. I rarely fit into political circles. While many in political office dread meetings with normal folks, I look forward to it. I dread political meetings with a bunch of politicians.
