ABOUT YOU

I voted in these elections:

No Answer

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

Please provide publicly available information validating your answer to the previous question.

As a Military Officer I have been unable to publicly make statements validating by personal beliefs. However, my personal beliefs are well known to friends and close associates and are made public here.

What education or experience qualifies you to hold the office for which you seek election?

My belief in God and my service to our country during the longest war in American history have given me the gift of perseverance. Critical thinking and valor are needed in public office. Too often our politicians are beholden to special interest groups or to individuals who donate the most money to them. This is not the form of government I think Christ or our founders envisioned.
