Under what circumstances should abortion be allowed?
Life begins at conception and should be protected at that point as the Word of God is clear that this is the creation of a person. When the mother's life is threatened with no other choice, an abortion could be allowed.

What should the United States do to help eradicate the threat of radical Islamic terrorism?
The recent growth and then virtual elimination of ISIS illustrates better than any recent terrorist threat the difference between liberal weakness and placating terrorism and a strong military response with targeted military attacks. The underlying threat is caused by the deception of the Muslim religion and is best eradicated with the truth of the Gospel of Yeshua, Jesus Christ.

What in the nature of mankind caused America’s Founders to carefully define, separate, and limit powers in the Constitution?
George Washington spoke of the love of power and the proneness to abuse it which predominates in the human heart. Power in the hands of a few is the definition of tyranny that John Adams gave as the reason for the three separate but equal branches of government.

Briefly describe your spiritual beliefs and values.
Yeshua, Jesus Christ was born and demonstrated to the world that He was God in the flesh. His life, death and resurrection provide undeniable proof that He is God. The Word of God, the Holy Bible, is the living and breathing Word of God that testifies to this fact. The Holy Bible provides the history, wisdom, prophecy, and witness of Yeshua, the Saviour of "mankind" who died, and rose again, so that we would never die, but pass out of this world into an everlasting existence with Him.

How would you promote healthcare coverage that is adequate, affordable and accessible for all?
Health care begins with preventative measures and is primarily an issue of diet for a majority of people. Health care must be market driven in a competitive environment to be accessible for a majority of people to be able to afford it. For the most vulnerable and lowest income population some type of safety net is a responsible act of a caring government for the people.

What education or experience qualifies you to hold the office for which you seek election?
Started a business 29 years ago in the real estate valuation field. I have prepared & analyzed data & evaluated real estate in the field for reports that have been utilized for business and scrutinized for 10s of millions of dollars of transactions. I am seeking a legislative office in the 49th Congressional District. What better preparation could someone have than to be writing, reviewing & analyzing in depth reports for becoming a legislator? I have run the race of obstacles placed in my path by government that every business owner has had to face. Our current President is using that experience to change the face of our federal government to free our economy with great success. I have been a precinct captain, an HOA President, founded a Republican Club as President, & been in an elected position for 2 years as a Republican Party Central Committee member. I was named Chairman of a growers committee (over 100 growers) leading to recovering 100% of stolen crop money avoiding bankruptcy.

Is there anything else you would like voters to know about you?
I believe I have a conviction from God, to enter this race. I ask that you consider my moral character and conviction above any other experience or attributes. Nothing is more important in selecting leaders in the Congress of the United States of America. I am an Evangelical Christian who will defend and protect Israel, protect innocent human life from conception to birth, and to natural death, defend and protect marriage between a man and a woman, restore Christian and Jewish morals and ethics to our public schools, and protect religious freedoms. I vow to enforce and enhance border security, build that wall, protect and defend our 2nd Amendment as an NRA life member, and work to shrink government daily and drain that swamp.
