Under what circumstances should abortion be allowed?
Abortion should only be allowed when there is an imminent threat to the physical life of the mother.
What in the nature of mankind caused America’s Founders to carefully define, separate, and limit powers in the Constitution?
The founding fathers, operating from a Judeo-Christian worldview, understood that mankind has a universal sin problem. Unfortunately, part of this problem makes us susceptible to seeking to aggregate and abuse power.The Founders, in their wisdom, implemented a structure for government precluding their successors from being able to accumulate power and subvert the will of the people.
Briefly describe your spiritual beliefs and values.
I believe the Bible is the inspired, inerrant word of God. I believe I am a sinner in need of Jesus Christ. Since accepting His free gift of grace, repenting of my sin, He is now my personal Lord and Savior.
When you consider your views on a wide range of issues from economic and social matters to foreign policy and immigration, which of the following best describes you overall?

What is the best way to bring down unemployment?
To bring down unemployment in the United States we reduce regulation, lower taxes, and allow the economy to drive free market prosperity.
How would you promote healthcare coverage that is adequate, affordable and accessible for all?
America was founded upon free people fighting for a society they believed in. Limited government and a free market will adequately provide a framework for the healthcare industry to meet the needs of our community.
What role should government play in boosting the economy?
The role of the government is to protect and provide safety from foreign and domestic threats. Secure the borders and help foster a society where free market thrives.
What education or experience qualifies you to hold the office for which you seek election?
Our Founding Fathers created our government based upon ‘We The People’ holding office. I grew up in this district, built a company from the ground up, worshipped alongside my neighbors, and served at my local church. I know the needs because I’ve seen them. Our district desperately needs to dream again; dream of what we can be if we come together and fight for the ‘American Dream.’ I believe that having never sought or been elected to public office gives me a unique outsider perspective, which aids in this fight.
