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.

Based on the Declaration of Independence and the U.S. Constitution, please arrange the following entities, starting with the highest source of authority, and continue the list in descending order of authority, skipping any that do not apply: Academia, Congress, Constitution, God, Industry, Media, Professional Sports, Supreme Court, Voters.

God Voters (We the People) Constitution Congress & Supreme Court Voters This question of authority becomes circular with respect to voters, having the authority to change the Constitution, yet persisting under its authority.

Under what circumstances should abortion be allowed?

None.

What in the nature of mankind caused America’s Founders to carefully define, separate, and limit powers in the Constitution?

Greed and the lust for more power are innate and often commensurate with the amount one has obtained. "The bureaucracy is expanding to meet the needs of the expanding bureaucracy."

Briefly describe your spiritual beliefs and values.

I am a Christian, believing that there is one God, Creator of all that there is, and He is revealed in three manifestations - God the Father, Jesus the Son, and His Holy Spirit. Of the commands given to man, the greatest is love the Lord God with all of your soul, strength, and might; the second greatest command is to love your neighbor as yourself.

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 am/believe in: Pro-life Strict Constitutionalist - this includes all amendments as written Small, limited federal government Strong national defense Pro-legal immigration Anti-amnesty for illegal immigrants Fiscal responsibility (balanced budget; limited public debt) Individual responsibility Individual freedom Individual privacy American sovereignty Economic freedom - limited regulation
