Under what circumstances should abortion be allowed?
Never
What should the United States do to help eradicate the threat of radical Islamic terrorism?
Quit Funding Terrorism
What in the nature of mankind caused America’s Founders to carefully define, separate, and limit powers in the Constitution?
Sinful human nature is the reasons our founding fathers created the separation of powers to protect against accumulation of power and a tyrannical government.
Briefly describe your spiritual beliefs and values.
I am a Christian and believe our Constitutional Republic was established to protect our Religious Liberties.
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?
Conservative
Please provide publicly available information validating your answer to the previous question.
I established Liberty First Alaska to help educate individuals on the Constitution and work towards restoring Liberty in our nation.
How would you promote healthcare coverage that is adequate, affordable and accessible for all?
Healthcare is a State Issue. The 10th Amendment defines this. Many individuals pay premiums but receive no benefits until their deductible is met. I propose that instead of paying an insurance company for "health Insurance" we should simply pay for health care.
What role should government play in boosting the economy?
The federal government should promote free trade through sound fiscal and monetary policy.
What changes should be made to the tax code?
I promote reducing regulations and support a flat tax
What is the best way to bring down unemployment?
Provide a healthy economic environment for free enterprise.
How would you guarantee Social Security benefits for future generations?
Congress must act now to secure social security benefits for future generations. One way to accomplish this is to provide younger workers the option to voluntarily contribute to an independent retirement system outside of social security and stop the raid on the Social Security Trust Funds.
What education or experience qualifies you to hold the office for which you seek election?
I am licensed as a Financial Advisor. Financial planning is what I do. I can help Congress be fiscally responsible and pass a balanced budget.

Is there anything else you would like voters to know about you?
Ever since the 2008-2009 Financial crisis, I have been asking what can I do, how can I make a difference. I then started looking for a solution when I realized that the solution was right in front of us all the time. We must get back to The Constitution to restore law and order in our nation. I am honored to have your support.
