Under what circumstances should abortion be allowed?

I will not dictate what another woman should do to her body. Only a woman who has had an abortion can answer this question.

Briefly describe your spiritual beliefs and values.

I am a Christian. I believe in forgiveness; I also believe in treating people with respect regardless of their religious beliefs or lack thereof. I will always do my best to listen to all sides of an argument and come to an educated decision. My motto is based on 1st Corinthians 13.

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 do not think I have a publicly available track record. I am not an incumbent

Additional comment from candidate:

The Affordable Care Act needs attention. It can be a very good product but not in its current form. Too many "holes" in the wording of the Act and what it does and/or does not cover. More research into this Act needs to be done in order to be able to apply this medical care product to the American people. 7. I will uphold the Supreme Court Ruling. 8. Confusing statement 13. Too vague and more research needs to be done Most of these questions are on a federal level. 21. No "marriage" is supported by public funds... None of these statements can be answered by a simple "agree" or "disagree" they are complicated issues that are in need of discussion. My constituents will have the ultimate decision in these statements
