OTHER INFORMATION
QUESTIONNAIRE
RIGHT TO LIFE
Human life begins at conception and deserves legal protection at every stage until natural death.
Strongly Agree
Abortion providers, including Planned Parenthood, should not receive taxpayer funds or grants from federal, state, or local governments.
Disagree
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.
Strongly Agree
Under what circumstances should abortion be allowed?
I don't think abortion is a federal issue. I think, like everything else, it is a State's right to allow or not, as well as to fund it or not.
ECONOMY
It is the government’s responsibility to ensure everyone has a livable income.
Agree
Free enterprise and the right to private property are essential elements of a productive economic system.
Strongly Agree
How would you guarantee Social Security benefits for future generations?
Thanks to all who came before me, I would be lying if I guaranteed anyone anything at this point. We have to see who is responsible for the mess we are in and we then are going to make some tough choices. I can promise you I will try to save it as someone who will have nothing if I don't.
What government spending would you reduce in order to balance the budget?
If you asked this question, are you aware of the term entitlements? Service on the debt? After this Coronavirus, our debt will surpass our GDP. THERE WILL BE NO MONEY. EVERYTHING MUST BE CUT.
Under what circumstances should taxpayers help pay off existing student loans?
When students graduate and find they can't find job because of racism or because they are Christian, or because the government will pay the company to hire an immigrant, then we should pay off that student's loans because they have wasted years of their lives thinking if they worked hard in America, they could get ahead. When I was in graduate school studying to be a history teacher, we were told if we were white males and didn't coach, we should try something else. That's government racism.
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
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?
In order to understand what such a complicated and historically packed concept ad the idea of the separation of Church and State and what it means to me, or anyone, you will have to read my book, "Deceptions of the Ages: " Mormons" Freemasons and Extraterrestrials."
HEALTHCARE
It is the government’s responsibility to ensure everyone has health insurance.
Agree
I support the elimination of private healthcare insurance.
Strongly Disagree
How would you promote healthcare coverage that is adequate, affordable and accessible for all?
The first answer to healthcare is to adequately diagnose the patient. The average is American is overweight, eats fake food, is put under stress every waking minute of every day and is surrounded by toxic chemicals from the make-up they wear to the water they drink. There aren't adequate rewards or opportunities to exercise, meditate and reflect on what we are even doing here. Those conditions created a perfect weakened host here and worldwide for the Coronavirus. I am afraid that with the lockdowns, and the use of them to maintain power by corrupt and inept politicians and government officials, there will never be enough health care. Until we get a handle on the people who were behind the Coronavirus fiasco in order to sell microchips and chip the world, no one except those with a chip, a sterilizing vaccine and a government approved malady will have any health care at all.
NATIONAL SECURITY
The best way to maintain peace is through a strong military.
Strongly Agree
What should the United States do to help eradicate the threat of radical Islamic terrorism?
As someone who left the US to work as a teacher in the Sultanate of Oman in November of 2001 and spent thirteen years in small towns, universities and military operations, written three books about my experiences and has more friends who speak Arabic than English, the answer is simple and everyone knows it from Africa and India to the Philippines. The Muslim Culture is based on the unrelenting spread of its faith through any means. Come to terms with that and you'll have your answer.
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
Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) should be abolished.
Strongly Disagree
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
Employers should be required to use E-verify to confirm the eligibility of their employees to work in the United States.
Strongly Agree
Who should be allowed to immigrate to the U.S. and under what circumstances?
We are no longer paying for our own invasion. With the exception of being married to or the child of an American Citizen, no one should be allowed to immigrate until the Government figures out what to do with the 20 million here illegally. I am proposing a freeze on Immigration until the government has a system in place to stop the cheap labor corporate free ride. Anyone immigrating here must speak English well enough to function in society.
EDUCATION
Taxpayer-funded public education should be guaranteed through college.
Strongly Agree
VALUES
Judeo-Christian values established a framework of morality which 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.
To fully and completely answer that question, I wrote a five hundred page book called, "Deceptions of the Ages: "Mormons" Freemasons and Extraterrestrials." Once you finish that book, you will not only understand my spiritual beliefs and values, but your own as well.
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?

Have you ever been convicted of a felony or been penalized for sexual misconduct? If so, please explain.
No.
Is there anything else you would like voters to know about you?
You need one thing right now. Action. You don't need a multi-multi millionaire($84 million) who works for Bill (Depopulate the world with my chip vaccine Gates) to go back to Washington and play political games with Nancy Pelosi while your family starves. You dont need someone who wasted years and milllions of taxpayers money supporting pie-in-the-sky fantasies about Donald Trump. You just have to decide if Matthew Heines is going to go to Washington and represent the people of the 1st Congressional District with honor, leadership and get the things done that need to be done, now. I am not going to give you a bunch of rhetorical BS because that's what got us here. However, when you go to vote, just remember what the Lord says. "By their works, ye shall know them."
CRIMINAL JUSTICE & PUBLIC SAFETY
Mandatory minimum sentencing should be required and enforced for violent crimes.
Strongly Agree
2ND AMENDMENT
What restrictions on gun ownership are needed to protect public safety?
Keep them out of the hands of liberals.
OTHER IMPORTANT ISSUES
I support BDS (boycott, divestment, and sanction) against Israel if they refuse to allow the creation of a Palestinian state.
Disagree
I support the legalization of recreational marijuana.
Strongly Agree
Reparations should be given to people on the basis of race.
Strongly Disagree
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?
1) Find who is responsible for the Coronavirus. To blame China solely for this virus is like blaming Mohammed Atta for the September 11, attacks and not look at the Bush family or the CIA, which this suspiciously resembles. Pass legislation so that Governors do not have the right to shut down private businesses. 2) Provide Labor Cards to all Migrant Workers who are employed. As long as they have a job and an employer, migrant workers should be allowed to pass through our border checkpoints unmolested. After that we will freeze immigration until the people who are working here can get registered. Then we can start to phase in DACA Amnesty. 3) Abolish Affirmative Action and Protected Classes. We can't compete or justify our children's hard work if they don't have the same chance as everyone else to succeed. 5) Take away funding from tech companies operating as monopolies and decouple the Deep State from using them to spy on us and turn our data over to China and the banking conglomerate
Is racism a threat to domestic security in the United States? Why or why not?
No, the corporation and government controlled media that promotes racism, disharmony and discord and has no regard for the law or people's rights is the biggest threat to domestic security in the US. I lived in Oman and Saudi Arabia for years where people from all over the world get along famously. It is only here, where the government uses racism and sexism to divide and conquer the poor is racism a problem.
