QUESTIONNAIRE
RIGHT TO LIFE
Abortion providers, including Planned Parenthood, should not receive taxpayer funds from federal, state, or local governments (including Title X grants).
Agree
Chemical abortion drugs should meet essential safety standards (such as in-person consultation with a medical doctor) and require reporting to gather evidence on reactions and outcomes.
Strongly Agree
Under what circumstances should an elective abortion be allowed?
In cases of rape or incest or health of the mother.
Does the federal government have a role to play in limiting abortion, and if so what federal steps and/or federal legislation would you support?
Late term abortion should be abolished. Otherwise, let the states decide.
RELIGIOUS LIBERTY
What does "separation of church and state" mean to you?
I don't think the government should be involved in religion. However, there is a principle of natural law, which should be studied and respected.
Individuals and businesses should be required to provide services even if it would violate their moral and/or religious beliefs.
Choose not to answer
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.
None of the above. We need to strive for good and respectful relations with all nations, and refrain from meddling in their internal affairs. There are many areas of common interest, as in US/Russia collaboration in space. We should pursue such programs. John Quincy Adams had the right approach.
The Chinese Communist Party poses serious military, cyber security, intellectual property, and global economic threats to the United States.
Strongly Disagree
China is not a threat. Our own rogue intelligence agencies, and the main stream media are the biggest threat.
Is the United States' relationship with Israel important, and if so why?
Yes. We could stop Israel from committing genocide in Gaza with one phone call, and get the hostages freed, and that call should have been made 11 months ago. Our relationship with israel is as important as our relationship with any other nation. Not more, not less.
What are the causes of decline in U.S. military recruitment and retention?
We have been engaged in illegal and criminal wars. People dont' want to participate. Also, our young people are very unhealthy, and can't pass the fitness tests.
HEALTHCARE
Under what circumstances (if any) should a government, school, or employer be allowed to require vaccinations?
I support informed consent.
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.
B
ECONOMY
What actions would you take that would allow Americans to retain more of their income and wealth?
Stop bailing out Wall Street crooks.
Student loan forgiveness unfairly shifts the financial burden to those not responsible for student debt.
Disagree
The education system is a fraud. Universites are just glorified hedge funds. The whole system is a mess. Young people shouldn't be made into debt slaves.
Should environmental and social issues, like ESG (environmental, social, and governance) ratings, be used as criteria in deciding where to invest public monies?
Yes
But these thnigs are defined in quite unusual ways. The question is the benefit to human beings.
IMMIGRATION
The U.S. should do more to physically secure the southern border.
Agree
Who should be allowed to immigrate to the U.S. and under what circumstances?
If we overthrow a government, or destroy a nation, as the Clintons did to Haiti, I don't think we can refuse people entry if their country has been rendered uninhabitable because of our actions. Every person seeking entry and legal status should be vetted for any criminal history and infectious diseases. Criminals should be denied entry.
EDUCATION
I support school choice, including voucher programs, tax credits, charter schools, private schools, and home schools.
Neutral
I don't support tax credits and vouchers. Since our public school system has been perverted with a bunch of crazy garbage, i support home schooling, but if we don't fix public education by upholding certain standards of literacy, mathematics and science, and culture, our nation is finished.
I support eliminating the U.S. Department of Education and giving control back to states and communities.
Agree
CRIMINAL JUSTICE & PUBLIC SAFETY
I support redirecting funds from police departments to community programs.
Disagree
We need to fund mental health and drug rehabilitation, but the police need more training, and more back up. I would take funds from the Wall Street bailouts and redirect it to improving the health of our people overall. The police have been handed an impossible situation.
2ND AMENDMENT
What restrictions on gun ownership are needed to protect public safety?
There are plenty already. Stop the violent video games and stop the rampant drug use.
JUDICIAL PHILOSOPHY
The Supreme Court should be reformed to include more seats.
Strongly Disagree
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?
Lean Conservative
What do you think is the general purpose of government?
To protect the freedom and safety of the citizens.
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.
No
VALUES
Marriage is a God-ordained, sacred and legal union of one man and one woman. No government has the authority to alter this definition.
Disagree
Children are the most vulnerable members of society and must be protected from abuse, including gender ideology, grooming, and bodily mutilation.
Strongly Agree
I absolutely oppose medical alterations of a child's biological sex. i suppose after he or she turns 18, it's their choice, but anyone who does this to a minor should be prosecuted.
Taxpayer funds should be used to provide gender transition services.
Strongly Disagree
Briefly describe your spiritual beliefs and values.
I am a Christian. Human life is sacred. Human beings are not animals.
ELECTIONS AND VOTING
People should be able to vote without photo identification.
Disagree
The Electoral College should be abolished.
Strongly Disagree
EQUALITY
I agree with Critical Race Theory (CRT) which asserts that the institutions in the United States are fundamentally racist.
Strongly Disagree
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
ENERGY & ENVIRONMENT
Man-made climate change is a global threat and requires urgent political action.
Strongly Disagree
What do you believe is the most reliable energy source that will supply the growing demand for electricity?
Nuclear power, and ultimately fusion energy. After that matter-anti-matter reactions have promise, in the next generation.
