QUESTIONNAIRE

RIGHT TO LIFE

Under what circumstances should abortion be allowed?

DNA defines life, the constitution protects life, DNA starts at conception.

Abortion providers, including Planned Parenthood, should not receive funds from federal, state, or local governments (including Title X grants).

Strongly Agree

We must protect life.

If Roe v. Wade is overturned by the US Supreme Court, how far are you willing to go to roll back North Carolina's statutory abortion law that allows abortion up to 20 weeks?

Life begins at conception.

I support 'aid in dying' laws which legalize assisted suicide and euthanasia.

Strongly Disagree

Life is precious at all stages.

Would you support a limitation on chemical abortion that protects women from taking abortion pills without the care and supervision of a qualified physician?

Choose not to answer

After conception, life is precious.


ECONOMY

The government should do more to close the gap between the working class and the wealthy.

Strongly Disagree

The economy is like a spring, the more it is stretched to great heights, the better off everyone is.

What changes, if any, should be made to the tax code?

Only a tax on consumption.

Taxpayer-funded public education should be guaranteed through college.

Disagree

Students should be able to get technical and life skills without unfairness to then,


RELIGIOUS LIBERTY

Individuals and businesses should be required to provide services even if it would violate their moral and/or religious beliefs.

Strongly Disagree

Religious rights are protected in the first amendment.

Under what circumstances can government close churches?

Under no circumstances, churches are protected under the first amendment.

What should be the relationship between the church and the state?

The state does not have any right to keep religious members from practicing our religion.


HEALTHCARE

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. The elderly have payed their way into Medicare and we should take care of the down trodden in their health needs.

Under what circumstances (if any) should a government, school, or employer be allowed to require vaccinations?

The government can never force a free person to take a drug or shot against our will.


EDUCATION

States should allow parents to use the Opportunity Scholarship Program to fund private school for their children.

Strongly Agree

Parents should have full vouchers so we can choose any public, private, or religious school to send our children too.

In what situations does a parent not have the right to know what their child is being taught in public school?

Never.

When should parents be restricted from speaking in school board meetings?

Never.


VALUES

Judeo-Christian values established a framework of morality which is necessary for our system of limited government.

Strongly Agree

Our founders recognized the importance of faith in keeping our nation free and healthy.

I support adding gender identity as a specially protected class in non-discrimination laws.

Strongly Disagree

DNA defines gender. There are 3,900 differences between men and women. Hormones and surgeries can only artificially change very few of these 3,900 differences.

I agree with Critical Race Theory (CRT) which asserts that the institutions in the United States are fundamentally racist.

Strongly Disagree

We have come a long way in the past 50 years toward ending racism.

Briefly describe your spiritual beliefs and values.

I believe that God sanctioned the United States as the Christian representative for the world.


ELECTIONS AND VOTING

People should be able to vote without photo identification.

Strongly Disagree

It should be easy to vote and impossible to cheat. Photo ID is used for virtually everything else in life. It should definitely be used for voting as well.

What laws would you propose to change present voting practices?

Vote on election day only with state matching photo ID. Paper ballots that are photographed and put on a public website by precinct so that anyone can verify the vote count. Each ballot should have a water mark and serial number.


EQUALITY

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

Racism in only a problem in the big cities, in rural America today, racism is virtually non existent.


ENERGY & ENVIRONMENT

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. Everyone wants clean air and water but too much regulation does no good to the environment and destroys the economy.


ABOUT YOU

What do you think is the general purpose of government?

Police, military, and infrastructure.

When you consider your views on a wide range of issues from economic and social matters to foreign policy and religious liberty, which of the following best describes you overall?

Very Conservative

Conservative values are biblical values.

Please provide publicly available information, including interviews and media reports, validating your answer to the previous question (other than your website).

The Holy BIble.

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

Never.

What else would you like voters to know about you, including your legislative priorities?

I am the author of thetheoryofbiblicalpatterns.com which proves that God wrote the Holy Bible. Once the Democrats realize that we have proof of the existence of God, they will vote Republican in droves.


CRIMINAL JUSTICE & PUBLIC SAFETY

Police officers should be personally immune from prosecution for conduct consistent with departmental policy (qualified immunity) while on duty.

Strongly Agree

Police cannot be afraid to do their job or they won't be able to protect the people.

I support redirecting funds from police departments to mental health and community programs.

Disagree

While mental health is important, it should not come from the police budgets.


2ND AMENDMENT

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

Citizens must be able to protect ourselves. The criminals will never obey gun laws and they will always have guns.

Victims of gun violence should be able to sue firearms dealers and manufacturers.

Strongly Disagree

That would eliminate our ability to protect ourselves.


OTHER IMPORTANT ISSUES

Would you support legislation that prohibits biological boys from competing on girls sports teams?

Yes

DNA defines gender, role, and life. There are 3,900 differences between men and women.
