QUESTIONNAIRE
RIGHT TO LIFE
Under what circumstances should abortion be allowed?
Only if the life of the mother is at risk should there ever be a consideration. But, God's Ten Commandments says: Thou Shalt Not Kill.
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.
Strongly Disagree
ECONOMY
What changes, if any, should be made to the tax code?
Do not allow increases in taxes just to push an agenda through. I.e. raising energy taxes so the price of gas, diesel etc rises to the point one is forced to buy and electric vehicle. Totally wrong.
What government spending would you reduce in order to balance the budget?
Too much money is spent on foreign countries whilst neglecting our own. I.e. why are we giving money to illegal aliens?
Taxpayer-funded public education should be guaranteed through college.
Choose not to answer
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?
None
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?
None
NATIONAL SECURITY
What should the United States do to help eradicate the threat of Islamic terrorism?
Quit subsidizing them. I.e. we were held hostage by Iran for over a year, and Obama sent them a truck load of money.
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
Israel belongs to the Jews. Allowing the Arab-Palestinians to control the West Bank will cause the Jews to be militarily and geographically at risk.
IMMIGRATION
The U.S. should do more to physically secure the southern border.
Strongly Agree
Everyone should go through the same immigration process my wife and I did - she is from the Philippines. If we going to allow anyone to cross our southern boarder, I want reimbursement for all the expenses my wife and I incurred. Moreover, I want everyone vetted like she was.
Who should be allowed to immigrate to the U.S. and under what circumstances?
Those truly seeking asylum, and those without terrorist or criminal motives. They should not be a burden to the existing Americans. No free ride.
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
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.
God is real, I follow him, Jesus died and was risen on the third day so that all my sins are forgiven and I will live in heaven some grand day!
ELECTIONS AND VOTING
People should be able to vote without photo identification.
Strongly Disagree
What laws would you propose to change present voting practices?
Require all political parties to observe the voting process and agree to the tabulation.
EQUALITY
Is racism a threat to domestic security in the United States? Why or why not?
Racism comes in all colors forms. Until we all agree we have some racism within us, we will never reduce or eradicate it. Enemy nations and Satan are pitting us against each to divide us. United we stand, divided we fall.
Reparations should be given to people on the basis of race.
Strongly Disagree
Other ethnic groups have been treated wrongly too. I.e. Irish, Asians, etc... Should we give reparations to them as well? Where does it stop? Who should be paid reparations for something they themselves did not experience - slavery, isolation, etc...?
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. Until the whole world, i.e. China, Russia, North Korea..., agree to these laws and regulations globally, it is moot.
I support the use of hydraulic fracking to extract oil and natural gas resources.
Strongly Agree
As long has it does not pollute underground water wells, or earthquake damages to citizens homes, businesses, etc...
ABOUT YOU
What do you think is the general purpose of government?
To support the people, the people being its citizens, not special interest groups, like greedy corporate America or career politicians.
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).
This survey will suffice.
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?
Im not a politician. However, Im honest, despise theft of any kind, will put God first, family second, and friends third.
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
I support redirecting funds from police departments to mental health and community programs.
Disagree
2ND AMENDMENT
What restrictions on gun ownership are needed to protect public safety?
No felonies, known terrorist
Victims of gun violence should be able to sue firearms dealers and manufacturers.
Strongly Disagree
It's not the fault of the seller or manufacturer. To state that it is, we should then sue the airlines for 911. People kill people, it does not matter to them what medium they use, gun, bow and arrow, cars, airplanes, poison, etc...
