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?

If the mother or the fetus is in danger. I do not believe it should be used as birth control and I do not believe the taxpayers should pay for it. You play, you pay.


ECONOMY

It is the government’s responsibility to ensure everyone has a livable income.

Neutral

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?

Anything that is frivolous or unnecessary


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.

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?

It means that government shouldn't be able to tell you what religion to believe in. We are founded on God in this country, but there is room for others, God judges, we shouldn't.


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?

Revamp the system. We pay insurance to not use it. And that is insane. We pay premiums, them a copay. We should be able to have insurance that pays us back if we don't use it. But, we shouldn't be penalized for using it.


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 right way, no sneaking over the wall or under the ground. Do it right


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.

Neutral

Briefly describe your spiritual beliefs and values.

I believe in the one true God and his son Jesus. Without him I am nothing. I believe that if you accept God as your savior, your battles with Satan will be greater, but that God will be in your corner to fight the demons. I believe that all life is precious, that there are 2 genders, male and female and that while people say they are born gay and can't choose, it is always a choice who you sleep with. I praise God every day and thank him every night. I am the christian that fails, but I try again and again with the Grace of God. I believe that abortion is murder, but I also believe that it is necessary as a medical procedure to save a life. I am a Jesus freak, but I don't bible thump. It is not my place to force my religion on anyone else, however, I will always talk to you about God, what he has done in my life and I will always pray for you.


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

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

Liberal thinking lately makes no sense at all. I use to think I was liberal, but no, I'm a middle of the road realist. I don't believe that the government should fund anything for us. We pay taxes and and things like unemployment is necessary, help , but shouldn't be a lifestyle. I believe that a person needs to take responsibility for their actions.

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

Absolutely none. I am a blue collar worker that is pissed off enough to want try to fix the broken system, but since it doesn't seem to work by voting, I would like to try fixing it from within. Politicians get too comfortable and forget who they work for. If they were running my business that way they run the country, I would fire them on the spot.

Have you ever been convicted of a felony or been penalized for sexual misconduct? If so, please explain.

Nope

Is there anything else you would like voters to know about you?

Did not answer


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.

Strongly Agree


2ND AMENDMENT

Should teachers be allowed to carry guns at school?

Yes

What restrictions on gun ownership are needed to protect public safety?

Felons should never be able to own a gun. However, we all know that criminals don't obey laws and all the laws imposed on the public will only hinder our rights to protect ourselves and our families.


OTHER IMPORTANT ISSUES

People should be able to vote without photo identification.

Strongly Disagree

I support the legalization of recreational marijuana.

Agree

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?

Budget control. We need to know where the money is going and use it wisely. The constitution.....that should be protected at all costs. Our forefathers fought for that and we shouldn't destroy it. Education...children are our future and they are getting the short end of the stick

Is racism a threat to domestic security in the United States? Why or why not?

No, race should have nothing to do with security.
