OTHER INFORMATION
QUESTIONNAIRE
RIGHT TO LIFE
Human life begins at conception and deserves legal protection at every stage until natural death.
Agree
Abortion providers, including Planned Parenthood, should not receive taxpayer funds or grants from federal, state, or local governments.
No Answer
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?
As a public official, I will not dictate to a woman what to do with her body. Her body belongs to her and to her alone.
ECONOMY
It is the government’s responsibility to ensure everyone has a livable income.
Strongly Agree
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?
Please go back to paragraph 26 to understand that my type leadership places the people first. I would stop all wars and I would point our armed forces to space. With that said, I would no longer pursue atomic weapons and try to balance our budget that way. I would make sure that our soldiers were properly trained and prepared to go into space in a very short notice.
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 Disagree
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.
No Answer
What does "separation of church and state" mean to you?
Separation of state and church means that neither will meadow on each other's affairs. This type of mutual understand allows people to choose to be part of one religious or another without been punished for such an endeavor. The state and the church should be allowed to conduct their affairs honestly and ethically without causing harm to its people.
HEALTHCARE
It is the government’s responsibility to ensure everyone has health insurance.
Strongly Agree
How would you promote healthcare coverage that is adequate, affordable and accessible for all?
The best way to develop a health care system for all is to look at income equality. Or should I say income inequality? For instance, a single individual that earns less than $100,000,00 a year or a coupe earning less $200,000.00 a year would not have to pay for health insurance. If either group makes more than the allowable amount per year, they would pay a percentage of health care insurance preset for the highest salary cap. An example of that would be: A family of four making $400,000.00 or more a year, would not have to pay more than four hundred dollars a month for health insurance....
NATIONAL SECURITY
The best way to maintain peace is through a strong military.
Strongly Disagree
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 Disagree
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.
Neutral
Who should be allowed to immigrate to the U.S. and under what circumstances?
Asylum seekers should not be turned back because if we do that we are sending them to died. Children should not be separated from their parent. That is barbaric to say the least. Right now the world has a different view of us and it will take a very long time to fix it. The United States has written protocols that allows a specific number of immigrates to apply for residency every year and it should be granted under our laws. No one comes here with the intention to hurt this country. Most people that come here are hard working people. What many people do not know is that many Americans immigrate to other countries as well.Those countries have written protocols for immigrants and most of them receive American immigrants the same way we do here.
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.
No Answer
I support adding sexual orientation, gender identity and gender expression as protected classes in non-discrimination laws.
No Answer
Briefly describe your spiritual beliefs and values.
I was born under the Catholic faith and as I grew older I moved on to Tao. Tao is the art or skill of doing something in harmony with the essential nature of things and the process of nature by which all things change and which is to be followed for a life of harmony. Also know as unconditional love. Give, give, give until you cannot give anymore.
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?
Moderate
Please provide publicly available information validating your answer to the previous question.
A moderator is a combination of affiliative, democratic and coach leadership. The use of combined leadership such as the one described above is best type of leadership when the people need guidance to troubleshoot issues within their community that will benefit them and the community at large. This combination of leadership places the people first, consult and look for strength within the community and help them develop the solution needed to solve the issues presented. One leadership style is not enough.... The past three decades could have used this type of leadership to serve instead of dictating to the people. This is the best time to apply this type of leadership. To use just one type of leadership skills is sure failure of most endeavors involved with decisions to benefit others!
What education or experience qualifies you to hold the office for which you seek election?
My PhD degree alone carry an 18 years of experience in the management field. In addition, I also have experience in other fields that makes it very hard for anyone running against me to match my managerial troubleshooting experience. I am also fluent in three languages: Portuguese, Spanish and English. Please research PhD in Industrial Organizations Psychology (IOP) degrees and you will find that the individual with this type of degree is one of the best troubleshooter out there when it comes down to addressing re-engineering of any organization and leadership of organization without having to fire those who are essential to the organization.. Please refer to the best type of leadership on paragraph 26 above.
Have you ever been convicted of a felony or been penalized for sexual misconduct? If so, please explain.
No, I have not ever been convicted of a crime. No, I have never been penalized for sexual misconduct. I think that we should enact tougher law for pedophiles so we can put a stop on this type of sexual deviant forever! I like to say more about these pedophiles that our state allowed to get out of jail....
Is there anything else you would like voters to know about you?
Yes, I am a relentless go getter individual that enjoys helping people. I am a natural at it. When I have time, I am out there cooking for the homeless or looking for way to make their lives a little less painful. I am one of the best troubleshooter I know.I can troubleshoot almost anything in real time. I have a PhD In Industrial and Organizational Psychology (IOP) I have a master degree in Information technology I have two Bachelor degrees of design - one in Civil/architecture and another in virtual reality. I have one an AAA in computer science. Had my own business and worked for DHS for nine years and I helped build the D.C. metro from mid 70s to early 80s.
JUDICIAL PHILOSOPHY
I support the use of Sharia law as a basis for legislation and judicial decisions in the United States.
No Answer
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?
No Answer
What restrictions on gun ownership are needed to protect public safety?
The best restrictions for gun ownership is to make sure that every gun sold in the country comes with a trigger lock. Everyone would be required to take gun safety courses before being allowed to own a gun. Also, individuals with domestic violence, criminal record, anger management problems, taking psychotic medicine or any types of drugs should not own a gun. That should come up on each background check.
OTHER IMPORTANT ISSUES
People should be able to vote without photo identification.
Strongly Agree
I support the legalization of recreational marijuana.
Agree
The Electoral College should be abolished.
Strongly Agree
In priority order, what three areas of legislation do you propose to author or sponsor if elected?
Stop the inhumane treatment of homeless by bringing all the homeless inside and provide medical treatment and rehabilitation programs so they can either go back into society or die with dignity. Enforce The Affordable House Act and make sure the state has enough affordable housing available for those who need it. Provide more psychological support for veterans and foster parents. Upgrade the technology for schools, from kindergarten to universities, provide similar technology upgrade to all first responders and provide, hazards pay to all first responders. Free daycare for low income.... Upgrade the entire infrastructure to include the best technology out there. expand the light rail system to every city or town that has 10,000 people of more and make this state a green state in five not fifth years.
Is racism a threat to domestic security in the United States? Why or why not?
Yes. Dividing the people the way politicians have been doing by enticed/instigated the people to hate one another is not the best way to guide society. We must conquer the hate that people we give and move on to eradicate social class differences next. Racism is one of the biggest threat to society here and abroad. Please read The Effects of Cultural Diversity in the Workplace that I published in 2007. Only then, you will see that the best way to solve any issue in the workplace is to include diversity in every organization. This way, people can learn more about other cultures and welcome not shun their differences. Women, LBGTQ, LATINIX, WOMNIX, people of color and other minorities play a very important role in our society and we should respect that!
