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.
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.
Strongly Agree
Under what circumstances should abortion be allowed?
In the event of the life of the mother, rape or incest.
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?
Non Profit Organizations get a large amount of money while putting very little benefit back to the people as a whole.
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.
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?
The Church provides moral guidance but the State the necessary leadership. The Church never runs the state but the guidance provided is from the church.
HEALTHCARE
It is the government’s responsibility to ensure everyone has health insurance.
Disagree
How would you promote healthcare coverage that is adequate, affordable and accessible for all?
I believe the old system needed revised however, the new Obama Care system is not the answer. We as a country need to work out a system that is fair to all but remains out of government management.
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?
Anyone that is willing to go thru the immigration process in full. The only exception would be those from a country that is currently at war with the US.
EDUCATION
Taxpayer-funded public education should be guaranteed through college.
Strongly Disagree
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.
Disagree

I have served as a board member of my church, I have worked as a counselor to the youth group for years. I believe in God and his influence of my actions. I believe that no decision should ever be made without the thought of the biblical teachings.
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?
Conservative

We are a country that was founded on Christian values, the founding fathers set forth a system that would be tolerant but solid in its actions. I fully believe that this is the best system ever devised as a way to run a country
What education or experience qualifies you to hold the office for which you seek election?
I have managed/owned many businesses, that experience alone allows me to see how the real world works. The role of being fiscally responsible is first and foremost.
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?
I am a honest and working businessman with a proven record of being fiscally responsible. I want to bring this experience to what I feel to be a body that has lost its way.

Is racism a threat to domestic security in the United States? Why or why not?
Yes, all men and women that are legally part of the US. No American citizen no matter what the race should be treated any differently.
