OTHER INFORMATION
QUESTIONNAIRE
RIGHT TO LIFE
Under what circumstances should abortion be allowed?
To save life of mother, such as an Ectopic pregnancy.
Abortion providers, including Planned Parenthood, should not receive funds from federal, state, or local governments (including Title X grants).
Strongly Agree
I support 'aid in dying' laws which legalize assisted suicide and euthanasia.
Disagree
My mother refused more dialysis treatments, and permitted to die by Renal failure. Nurses gave her morphine, she went in a coma, and died several days later.
ECONOMY
What changes, if any, should be made to the tax code?
Allow taxpayers to deduct the interest paid on loans and credit cards.
What government spending would you reduce in order to balance the budget?
Agencies, like NIH, must be audited and eliminate unnecessary projects and spending. If Congress cut every department budget by twenty percent, then they would have to cut spending to the primary mission.
Taxpayer-funded public education should be guaranteed through college.
Strongly Disagree
RELIGIOUS LIBERTY
Individuals and businesses should be required to provide services even if it would violate their moral and/or religious beliefs.
Strongly Disagree
Under what circumstances can government close churches?
Separation of Church and State goes both ways. Our government does not have the authority to close churches.
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
Under what circumstances (if any) should a government, school, or employer be allowed to require vaccinations?
I did not get the vaccine. Government and businesses should not be allowed to force people to get vaccinated. Before any medical procedure, I must sign a consent form for battery.
NATIONAL SECURITY
What should the United States do to help eradicate the threat of Islamic terrorism?
The Federal Government knew that Major Hassan was radicalized, yet did nothing. Likewise, they knew that the Muslims were taking flight training, and did not want to takeoff and land. September 11, 2001 could have been prevented.
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.
Strongly Disagree
IMMIGRATION
The U.S. should do more to physically secure the southern border.
Strongly Agree
Who should be allowed to immigrate to the U.S. and under what circumstances?
People with needed skills that are financially stable.
EDUCATION
I support school choice, including voucher programs, tax credits, charter schools, private schools, and home schools.
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 gender identity as a specially protected class in non-discrimination laws.
Strongly Disagree
Psychologists used to identify homosexuals and transgender, crossdressers as deviant behavior.
Marriage is a God-ordained, sacred and legal union of one man and one woman. No government has the authority to alter this definition
Strongly Agree
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.
I am a Christian and support Christian and conservative .organizations. I believe that Jesus is the Son of God. Modern technology, computers and smart chips are preparing the way for the Anti-Christ. I lived on the Left Coast for 28 years. I know what is coming, and will vote to stop it in the South Carolina Legislature.
ELECTIONS AND VOTING
People should be able to vote without photo identification.
Strongly Disagree
What laws would you propose to change present voting practices?
Purge the voter records of dead people and those that do not live in the district. Secretary of State and law enforcement must investigate when informed of election fraud.
EQUALITY
Is racism a threat to domestic security in the United States? Why or why not?
Racists come in all colors and nationalities. Racism is not a threat. Democrats are constantly creating divide and conquer issues to keep Republicans on defense. Fifteen years ago, they created the "Rails to Trails" movement. Now, Democrats want to build railroad tracks in the infrastructure bill.
Reparations should be given to people on the basis of race.
Strongly Disagree
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
I support the use of hydraulic fracking to extract oil and natural gas resources.
Strongly Agree
ABOUT YOU
What do you think is the general purpose of government?
As a Republic, we elect people to represent our interests, defend the country, maintain infrastructure, and leave us alone as much as possible. If Congress and the States all had part time legislatures, then they would have to focus on what is important.
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
Please provide publicly available information, including interviews and media reports, validating your answer to the previous question (other than your website).
My 2020 campaign mailer. Let me know a contact, and I will email it to you.
Have you ever been convicted of a felony or been penalized in either civil or criminal court for sexual misconduct? If so, please explain.
No.
What else would you like voters to know about you, including your legislative priorities?
I oppose the Article 5 Constitutional Convention. The delegates to the Convention would be the same people that rule us. I would not trust the delegates.
CRIMINAL JUSTICE & PUBLIC SAFETY
Police officers should be personally immune from prosecution for conduct consistent with departmental policy (qualified immunity) while on duty.
Agree
I support redirecting funds from police departments to mental health and community programs.
Strongly Disagree
2ND AMENDMENT
What restrictions on gun ownership are needed to protect public safety?
The Constitution does not prohibit us from owning firearms. Likewise, the Constitution says nothing about production and sale of alcohol. Prohibition required ratification of the eighteenth Amendment. Many mass shootings could have been prevented but for the failure of government, like Maurice Clemmons in Washington State.
Victims of gun violence should be able to sue firearms dealers and manufacturers.
Strongly Disagree
