OTHER INFORMATION
QUESTIONNAIRE
RIGHT TO LIFE
Abortion providers, including Planned Parenthood, should not receive funds from federal, state, or local governments (including Title X grants).
Strongly Agree
The government should not be funding abortions with taxpayer dollars.
I support 'aid in dying' laws which legalize assisted suicide and euthanasia.
Strongly Disagree
I am deeply opposed to the legalization of assisted suicide.
Under what circumstances should abortion be allowed?
When the life of the Mother is in jeopardy.
ECONOMY
Redistribution of income is needed to lessen the gap between the wealthy and working classes.
Strongly Disagree
Hard work, the development of new skills, self-reliance, and an economically friendly environment is the way to uplift the people and country.
The government should cut spending in order to reduce the national debt.
Strongly Agree
As the world reserve currency is crucial to our way of life and national security, fiscal responsibility and maintaining the US Dollar is most important. I have been fiscally responsible during my entire career as a business owner. I pledge to be a fiscally responsible conservative and oppose nation-building as well as bailouts to foreign countries and their entities.
What changes, if any, should be made to the tax code?
I am opposed to taxation without representation and I would consider a flat sales tax.
RELIGIOUS LIBERTY
Religious liberty is at risk in the United States and deserves the highest level of protection in the law.
Strongly Agree
Religious freedom has never been more threatened than it currently stands. The right to practice one's faith is a fundamental American value. I will fight for the protection of this sacred right.
Individuals and businesses should be required to provide services even if it would violate their moral and/or religious beliefs.
Strongly Disagree
The government should not require individuals and businesses to provide services if it would violate their moral or religious beliefs.
What should be the relationship between the church and the state?
"Separation of Church and State", is to keep the government from influencing our religious practice. The wall of separation is not to keep our personal religious values separate from who we vote for and what issues we stand for and against.
HEALTHCARE
Under what circumstances (if any) should a government, school, or employer be allowed to require vaccinations?
I support voluntary consent which must be absolutely essential. This means any person should have the legal capacity; so as to be able to exercise free power of choice, without any element of force, fraud, deceit, duress, or other forms of constraint or coercion. Furthermore they should have sufficient knowledge and comprehension of the risks and all elements involved to enable them to make a knowledgeable choice.
What most closely matches your view on healthcare: A) Healthcare for all should be guaranteed and funded by the government with no private healthcare option. (includes "universal healthcare," "medicare for all," etc.) B) Healthcare insurance funded by the government should be available for all who want it, along with private healthcare options. C) Medicaid and Medicare should remain available, but no other taxpayer-funded programs are necessary. D)Tax-payer funded health care should be abolished in all forms, and Medicaid and Medicare should be de-funded.
C
NATIONAL SECURITY
With regard to America's foreign policy, which view most closely resembles yours: A) The United States should intervene whenever freedom is threatened. B) The United States should selectively help countries trying to grow democracy and fight tyranny. C) The United States has become too involved in others' policies and should remain focused on issues regarding our own sovereignty unless in imminent danger. D) The United States should stay out of foreign conflicts completely.
C
I support the Boycott, Divestment, Sanctions (BDS) movement to pressure Israel to withdraw from occupied territories, remove the separation barrier in the West Bank, allow full equality for Arab-Palestinian citizens of Israel, and promote the rights of Palestinian refugees.
Disagree
The Chinese Communist Party poses serious military, cyber security, intellectual property, and global economic threats to the United States.
Agree
What should the United States do to help eradicate the threat of Islamic terrorism?
Islamic terrorism is unlikely to be eradicated.
IMMIGRATION
The U.S. should do more to physically secure the southern border.
Strongly Agree
Finish the wall
State and federal funds shall be denied to any public or private entity, such as a sanctuary city, that is not in compliance with immigration laws.
Agree
Who should be allowed to immigrate to the U.S. and under what circumstances?
We must stop incentivizing people to come to America to receive government benefits. We have plenty of welfare recipients...We need productive citizens instead.
VALUES
Sexual orientation and gender identity should be protected classes in non-discrimination laws.
Strongly Disagree
There are only 2 genders. Man. Woman. I strongly agree protecting this biological fact from discrimination. Any identities outside that is not based on science.
I agree with Critical Race Theory (CRT) which asserts that the institutions in the United States are fundamentally racist.
Strongly Disagree
Briefly describe your spiritual beliefs and values.
My spiritual beliefs and values align as Christian
ELECTIONS AND VOTING
People should be able to vote without photo identification.
Strongly Disagree
What laws would you propose to change present voting practices?
Back to basics. No voting machines, paper ballots with official ID only.
EQUALITY
Reparations should be given to people on the basis of race.
Strongly Disagree
Is racism a threat to domestic security in the United States? Why or why not?
NO. While I agree there are small instances of racism, they are few and far between. By and large our nation is not racist. The corporate media in collusion with communists seek to divide and conquer our country using race and other divisive tactics.
ENERGY & ENVIRONMENT
I support the use of hydraulic fracking to extract oil and natural gas resources.
Agree
Which comes closest to your view? A) Stricter environmental laws and regulations cost too many jobs and hurt the economy. B) Stricter environmental laws and regulations are worth the cost.
A. American's cannot afford 60k electric cars and $5 per gallon gas and still provide for their families.
