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.

The United States must maintain a nuclear arsenal that is safe, reliable, modern and numerically superior to those of potential adversaries.

It is the government’s responsibility to be sure everyone has health care and a livable income.

More restrictive gun control laws are needed to protect public safety.

Governments should pay to develop wind and solar energy solutions until they are economically feasible.

Under what circumstances should abortion be allowed?
None. We should TRY and save both not intentionally kill one of them. Under what situations is theft allowed?
What in the nature of mankind caused America’s Founders to carefully define, separate, and limit powers in the Constitution?
Our failings. No man is a saint but one. Our founders knew that we are not Angels and we are flawed and must have the checks and balances in place.
Briefly describe your spiritual beliefs and values.
I am a Christian and believe that my God died for my sins. I believe in the 10 commandments, and would hope that all can see it is a true and best guide. I do respect others beliefs, even if I disagree, as long as their beliefs do not harm another.
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.
Reagan's three principles of Conservatism: Fiscal: FAIRtax State Director = limited Federal Government. Real Tax reform that repeals the 16th Amendment. Social Conservative: Only candidate to march in right to life rally in Phoenix this year. Prayed at steps of Supreme Court w/Troy Newman before vote of Abortion ruling case this year. Only candidate to sign the equal Protection for Posterity Petition. National Defense/Foreign Policy: Only candidate to have a contract with our Veterans and their families. My contract is a life contract and starts with me putting my office in or next to the VA hospitals in AZ. I am the only candidate to fully support Israel. Others just play lip service at best. I am committed to travel to Israel as my first abroad trip once elected. My wife will join me on this trip as she makes Aliyah.
