QUESTIONNAIRE

RIGHT TO LIFE

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

Disagree

Abortion should not be considered healthcare. In rare instances including rape, incest, and the threat of life to the mother should be the only exceptions when an abortion is necessary. America is facing a decline in our population. Abortion is not the natural course of history. The long term affects will be a steady decline of population. The country of Japan is now facing this harsh reality.

Under what circumstances should an elective abortion be allowed?

Spousal consent is vary necessary to a woman having an abortion. Spousal consent is the law in Japan. America should heavily consider doing the same thing. The traditional view, when an abortion should be allowed is at the time the mother's life is a risk while giving an abortion, and due to rape and incest.

Human life deserves legal protection from conception until natural death.

Strongly Agree

The founding fathers believed constitutional rights were granted by the heavenly father at the flash of life. Otherwise known as the moment of conception.

The lives of human embryos created through artificial methods ought to be protected from purposeful destruction.

Neutral

I believe creating embryos outside the natural means of intercourse should not be tampered with. There of plenty of orphans who would gladly accept a mother and father.

The Comstock Act, which bans interstate transportation of abortion-inducing drugs, should be enforced.

Strongly Agree

Abortion drugs are harmful to a woman's health, and are often used in accordance to human trafficking. My city of Las Vegas has a major problem with human trafficking. Abortion-inducing drugs fuel the industry. Especially the water system through out Nevada is put at risk by women using these abortion-inducing drugs.


ECONOMY

What is your position on the minimum wage?

A worker is can rise above the minimum wage by determination and hard work. Unions are a great alternative to the minimum wage. As they argue for the prevailing wage. And bring up the workers standard of work.

Free enterprise and the right to private property are essential elements of a productive economic system.

Strongly Agree

The founding fathers knew of the importance of private property. We must never forget the principals that have guided our country for 100's of years.

List your top 3-5 priorities to eliminate government waste.

1. Internal Review 2. Audit 3. Re-Allocate Funding


RELIGIOUS LIBERTY

What does "separation of church and state" mean to you?

Originally "the separation of church of state" was meant to keep the state of the church. Not to keep the church out of state matters. The founding fathers even plead for a minister to open congress in prayer. Benjamin Franklin's speech the president George Washington speaks to how much they needed God in order to draft the constitution.

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

Strongly Disagree

The first amendment grants protections to persons from violating their conscience and beliefs.


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) Taxpayer funded health care should be abolished in all forms, and Medicaid and Medicare should be defunded.

C.

The government should keep a database of people with various ongoing medical illnesses to assess the economic burden of treatment.

Strongly Agree

I believe gathering this sort of date would be in the benefit of the general public.


NATIONAL SECURITY

The Chinese Communist Party poses serious military, cyber security, intellectual property, and global economic threats to the United States.

Strongly Agree

Not much research needs to be done to find multiple attacks by the CCP on America soil.

Is the United States' relationship with Israel important, and if so why?

To this, question I whole heartedly answer yes. Nevada must remember by whom we were given the holy scriptures. The founding fathers embedded many inscriptions in Hebrew with Bible characters all across the nation. However when Israel's laws become contrary to our country's constitution we need to think twice about much we can continue supporting them.


IMMIGRATION

I support the existence of sanctuary cities to protect undocumented persons.

Strongly Disagree

Our country is trillions of dollars of debt. Not to say, specifically Nevada is going bankrupt. At this current time, we can not say how many undocumented students are flooding the public school system in Clark County, NV. We most come to reality and realize the country can not afford to allow more undocumented people in. Sanctuary cities pose a great threat to the public's safety, and educational system.


EDUCATION

I support eliminating the U.S. Department of Education and giving control back to states and communities.

Strongly Agree

Foreign governments should be prohibited from funding American education.

Strongly Agree

Our country was founded by we the people. Foreign governments should not be adding their dollars into our elections.


VALUES

Government should recognize and support the fundamental right and essential duty of parents to direct their child's health and educational well-being.

Strongly Agree

I am an advocate for parental rights.

Attempts to physically or socially transition a child to the opposite sex constitute child abuse.

Strongly Agree

Some decisions children make can never be undone. God made us male and female. There is not thing else.

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 this definition.

I support the expansion of gambling in my state.

Strongly Disagree

Folks have thought taxing gambling would be a good thing for the state of Nevada. However statistics have proven the contrary. By Clark Country School District being ranked last place in national rankings.

Briefly describe your spiritual beliefs and values.

I am a biblical fundamentalist. A person is saved "by grace through faith, not of yourselves, it is the gift of God" Eph. 2:8. Eternal life is given by God. Forgiveness is first attainted by accepting the pardon of sins in the sacrificial offering Jesus Christ did on the cross.


ELECTIONS AND VOTING

People should be able to vote without photo identification.

Disagree

The more measures of security in elections. The more secure their persons vote will become.


EQUALITY

Reparations should be given to people on the basis of race.

Disagree

At this point in history, it maybe impossible to trace back one's linage. And then being able to equally distribute 40's acres and a mule. This was one of the great deceptions posed by Abraham Lincoln.

Biological males should not be allowed to participate in women's sports or occupy biological women's spaces whether it be bathrooms, locker rooms, sorority houses, women's shelters, or prison.

Strongly Agree

Allow biological males into women's sports & spaces is simply dangerous.


ENERGY & ENVIRONMENT

Man-made climate change is a global threat and requires urgent political action.

Strongly Agree

I do believe mankind should not interfere with the natural course of nature. The long term affects of how it will impact the earth man does not know.

What do you believe is the most reliable energy source that will supply the growing demand for electricity?

At this present time, its not solar, not nuclear. More innovation has to be done with wind energy. I do not mean the large wind tribunes. Those have proven ineffective. I'm speaking to renewable energy methods down to the housing market.


ABOUT YOU

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

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

No.

Have you ever been convicted of a felony? If so, please explain.

Yes. My crimes were committed when I was a teenager. I hope soon to be receive a pardon.


CRIMINAL JUSTICE & PUBLIC SAFETY

What should be the goal of the criminal justice system?

Show mercy, and also penalize criminals who deserve it.

Government has a responsibility to protect children from sexual exploitation during online activities.

Strongly Agree

Children should not become prey while browsing the internet. New dangers exist with online learning, and gaming.

Sharia law should not be accepted or incorporated in any form within the legal framework of the United States.

Strongly Agree

Sharia law is not compatible with any society.


2ND AMENDMENT

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

In regards to a person's mental capacity should gun ownership be restricted.
