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?
There are NO circumstances that abortion should be allowed! Real doctors already do the most they can to save both lives. ABORTION IS MURDER, MURDER IS ILLEGAL under God's law and ours. ABORTION MUST BE ABOLISHED!! Murdering God's image bearers is a BILLION dollar industry where the ONLY profit realized is the paid assassin's! What else does that sound like?
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?
I would exam the economic statements and reports to see if an across the board cut is warranted. I would scrutinize non essential expenses NOT personnel for additional savings, versus tax increases.
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 original intent was and still is misconstrued in that it was never meant to be separated one from the other.
HEALTHCARE
It is the government’s responsibility to ensure everyone has health insurance.
Strongly Disagree
How would you promote healthcare coverage that is adequate, affordable and accessible for all?
Im not in favor of socialized medicine due to the actual lack of care it provides to the citizens. Ask China and Venezuela how communist Marxist "health care" is beneficial. Free market and capitalism is the best and a proven model to grow an economy which includes affordable healthcare. We need more competitive insurance policies and pricing and for Big Pharma to cease it's profound greed.
NATIONAL SECURITY
The best way to maintain peace is through a strong military.
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?
People who wish to come to our country to fulfill a dream, not affiliated with known threatening groups, or with a desire to destroy our country. They should prove blood relation to children they are bringing with them and not allowed entry until vetting is completed, to include at THEIR expense, blood work showing no communicable or life threatening diseases, OR if they are pregnant (blood work) in that case delay entry until birth of child.
EDUCATION
Taxpayer-funded public education should be guaranteed through college.
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.
Strongly Agree
Briefly describe your spiritual beliefs and values.
My spiritual belief is derived from teachings of the Holy Bible, years of being instructed by my parents and attending church my entire life. These things combined built my belief system that God, the Father, Jesus Christ, his son and the Holy Spirit are the same. God sent his son to die on my behalf which offers salvation and grace when I apply my free will to accept this sacrifice of death on the cross and resurrection, as my advocate and Savior. I am a sinner that doesn't deserve this grace.
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?
Very Conservative
Please provide publicly available information validating your answer to the previous question.
I was baptized at Council Road Baptist Church where they issued me a certificate of baptism, around 2007 I have a picture of that day on my Facebook page.
What education or experience qualifies you to hold the office for which you seek election?
Many years of successes and failures, learning from both, along with my Bachelor's degree will serve me well in office. I have an innate ability to HEAR what people are saying and can ascertain motives from answers they provide, verbal or otherwise. I've held varied positions in the business arena as well as federal, state and local civil service to include 8.5 years at OCPD.
Have you ever been convicted of a felony or been penalized for sexual misconduct? If so, please explain.
No and NO.
Is there anything else you would like voters to know about you?
Please know that my desire is to serve you, the people of HD87, not other legislators. We've been locked out & left out of the decisions to receive billions of tax dollars spent all over the state. I am an America and her constitutional rights, OK first, 2A supporter who will not back down when the welfare of my home and district (state) are challenged.
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.
Agree
2ND AMENDMENT
Should teachers be allowed to carry guns at school?
Yes
What restrictions on gun ownership are needed to protect public safety?
Very few are necessary. I'd say cases of severe mental health issues and repeated offenses with a firearm would warrant a review to limit a person's ability to publicly carry a firearm but not exclude hi from having one in home.
OTHER IMPORTANT ISSUES
People should be able to vote without photo identification.
Disagree
I support the legalization of recreational marijuana.
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?
Abolishing abortion. Defending or reinstitution of constitutional rights. Reducing public assistance to able bodied people because this improves self esteem and stimulates the economy.
Is racism a threat to domestic security in the United States? Why or why not?
Racism is a threat from people outside of our country because of their hatred of our country. Many of them are already in the USA, in that regard, there is a real threat within the US. Network news, or main stream media, as well as social medias are a threat to domestic security for their part in creating, promoting and paying for that cancer to spread.
