Briefly describe your spiritual beliefs and values.
I am a Christian who believes that Christ died for our sins. I have a very personal relationship with God through prayer. I pray about everything and I try to listen and follow God's plan for my life.
Considering all issues (social, economic, national security, etc.), which of these best describes you?
Somewhat Conservative
Please defend your answer to the previous question by referencing your publicly available track record.
I am very conservative on economic/fiscal policy and national security. I served on active duty and I am a big advocate of a strong military and a firm national security strategy. I also served in local government where we balanced our budget every year. On social issues I am more moderate because I don't believe the government has a role in our personal healthcare or marital choices.
