Voters, Constitution, Supreme Court, Congress.
Under what circumstances should abortion be allowed?
Extreme fetal abnormalities, or life of mother is at stake.
What in the nature of mankind caused America’s Founders to carefully define, separate, and limit powers in the Constitution?

Briefly describe your spiritual beliefs and values.
Article VI of the US Constitution reads as follows: "but no religious Test shall ever be required as a Qualification to any Office or public Trust under the United States". My point is this: your organization asking this question is not consistent with the Constitution, or the intention of our nation's founders.
Considering all issues (social, economic, national security, etc.), which of these best describes you?
No Answer
Please defend your answer to the previous question by referencing your publicly available track record.
Please include "Libertarian" and "Totalitarian" in your question above. The political spectrum is an x-y graph, and isn't merely linear. I've served four terms on the Libertarian Party's national platform committee, and many of my public speeches are on my YouTube channel. Search Youtube for "Guy McLendon".
