OTHER INFORMATION
QUESTIONNAIRE
RIGHT TO LIFE
Human life begins at conception and deserves legal protection at every stage until natural death.
No Answer
Abortion providers, including Planned Parenthood, should not receive taxpayer funds or grants from federal, state, or local governments.
Strongly Agree
I support the Born Alive Abortion Survivors Protection Act, which requires health care providers to provide life-saving treatment for infants who survive an attempted abortion.
Agree
Under what circumstances should abortion be allowed?
Very rare situations to protect life of mother, or serious, non-curable diseases of child under clearly defined objective medical conditions. Except to save life of mother, this must be done before the end of third month of pregnancy.
ECONOMY
It is the government’s responsibility to ensure everyone has a livable income.
Strongly Disagree
Free enterprise and the right to private property are essential elements of a productive economic system.
Strongly Agree
What government spending would you reduce in order to balance the budget?
We must return to the limits of government power and spending described in Article I, Section 8 of U.S. Constitution.
RELIGIOUS LIBERTY
Governments should not discriminate against individuals, organizations or small businesses because of their belief that marriage is only a union of one man and one woman.
Strongly Agree
Governments should define marriage as between one man and one woman; no other definition of marriage should be legalized or supported with taxpayer or public funds.
No Answer
Religious liberty is at risk in the United States and deserves the highest level of protection in the law.
Strongly Agree
I promise to protect the freedom of Christians to share the Gospel and to practice Biblical principles.
Yes
What does "separation of church and state" mean to you?
The First Amendment of U.S. Constitution prohibits federal funds from "establishing" or funding any particular place or institution of worship or religion.
HEALTHCARE
It is the government’s responsibility to ensure everyone has health insurance.
Strongly Disagree
How would you promote healthcare coverage that is adequate, affordable and accessible for all?
First, enforce immigration laws. Second place reasonable limitations on obligation of health care providers and insurers to provide drug abuse counseling, gender changing surgery, etc. Allow and encourage consumers to purchase limited "major medical" health insurance, and to purchase such insurance across state lines.
NATIONAL SECURITY
The best way to maintain peace is through a strong military.
Strongly Agree
IMMIGRATION
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
State and federal funds should be denied to any public or private entity, including but not limited to sanctuary cities, that are not in compliance with immigration laws.
Strongly Agree
Who should be allowed to immigrate to the U.S. and under what circumstances?
The limits on numbers of legal immigrants established and enforced between 1920 and 1965 should immediately be restored.
EDUCATION
Taxpayer-funded public education should be guaranteed through college.
Strongly Disagree
VALUES
Judeo-Christian values established a framework of morality that is necessary for our system of limited government.
Strongly Agree
I support adding sexual orientation, gender identity and gender expression as protected classes in non-discrimination laws.
Strongly Disagree
Briefly describe your spiritual beliefs and values.
Love the Lord your God with all your heart, soul, and might. Love your "rayah" as yourself. The Parable of Good Samaritan explains who is a "rayah" to us. The Samaritans referred to by Jesus in that parable were probably non-Jews living in Samaria who were mostly hostile to Jews and similar to the Palestinians of today.
ABOUT YOU
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?
Very Conservative

What education or experience qualifies you to hold the office for which you seek election?
Forty-five years experience as attorney in small-town, general practice. Roughly five years experience as adjunct professor of U.S. History and government at local community college. Eighteen years experience as Executive Director of LibertyAndProsperity.com. Roughly eight years experience radio talk show host. Five years experience as Atlantic City local and county government experience. Enjoy reading books to supplement high school and college education.

Is there anything else you would like voters to know about you?
Please visit LibertyAndProsperity.com
JUDICIAL PHILOSOPHY
I support the use of Sharia law as a basis for legislation and judicial decisions in the United States.
Strongly Disagree
CRIMINAL JUSTICE & PUBLIC SAFETY
Mandatory minimum sentencing should be required and enforced for violent crimes.
Agree
2ND AMENDMENT
Should teachers be allowed to carry guns at school?
Yes
What restrictions on gun ownership are needed to protect public safety?
The existing gun laws in states like Florida seem to meet the needs of public safety. The existing gun laws in New Jersey make it much too difficult for law abiding citizens to carry firearms when legitimately needed to protect their lives, property, and family.
OTHER IMPORTANT ISSUES
People should be able to vote without photo identification.
Strongly Disagree
I support the legalization of recreational marijuana.
No Answer
The Electoral College should be abolished.
Strongly Disagree
In priority order, what three areas of legislation do you propose to author or sponsor if elected?
My priority will be enforcing existing immigration and political corruption laws. Prevent public schools and colleges from discriminating against Christians and conservatives in hiring faculty, staff, and in curriculum. Prevent discrimination by tax funded institutions according to race or ethnic background. Require all government and government funded communications to be in English. Refuse to pay any New Jersey state debts not approved by voters as required by New Jersey State Constitution.
Is racism a threat to domestic security in the United States? Why or why not?
Yes. The media, Hollywood and TV entertainment industry, colleges, and public schools in America routinely falsely and unfairly blame whites, especially white, heterosexual Christian male for all problems and injustice in the world just as Nazis in Germany once blamed Jews.
