Only in the first two trimesters, or if the life of the mother is in danger.

Strongly Disagree

Redistribution does not work; we need to educate and train our workforce.

Strongly Agree

we are the greatest debtor nation this world has ever known and if we don’t start reducing it our economy will collapse. No nation in the history of the world has been able to continuously borrow without dire consequences. This is one of the reasons inflation is crippling our middle and lower classes

we need to make our tax code simpler. By taking out many of the tax breaks that are given to certain industries. I would try to implement a modified flat tax system

Strongly Agree

Disagree

I believe in the First Amendment in the right of every individual to worship the way they wish as long as it does not interfere with others which also means the state should not put demands on the people this country that goes against the religious beliefs

There should be limited in only rarely exercise vaccination mandates, especially those with side effects or that are experimental. We need to have completely transparent medical information both pros and cons of any vaccination before the government or the private sector can require an individual to take one

None of the above.

Strongly Disagree

Strongly Agree

we need to work with Islamic countries and organizations that are not extremists to educate their populations and strengthening the economic opportunities of their communities. Only in rare circumstances should we resort to military action

Strongly Agree

Neutral

we need immigration to fill the professions in job skills we need for our nations economic health.

Agree

Strongly Disagree

Is there racism in this country yes, however I believe it is overhyped in the media. We have come a long way. I’m old enough to remember that interracial marriages were taboo. Now they are commonplace. The problem is not so much racism but economic opportunities for the poor and less educated communities in our country. You can go to places in this country where the majority of people are on some kinds of public assistance are mostly white. Poverty does not care what race you are

I was race Roman Catholic but I no longer believe, I am in an agnostic but I live my life according to the Golden rule. However I will defend everyone’s right to worship .in their own way because I believe in our Constitution

Strongly Disagree

I’ve been involved in politics since 1992 and I’ve seen voter fraud in numerous elections. Mostly on a small scale but it does happen. We must keep the integrity of our elections intact. Over the last decade more and more people do not trust our elections. In the continues this way our country faces dire consequences

I would limit absentee voting because it leads to too much fraud. And it’s been happening for decades both Democratic and Republican election winners have been overturned in court’s because of absentee ballot fraud. Most states are now allowing multiple date voting which I would expand to the entire nation. I would allow same-day voter registration in I would mandate that everyone running federal elected office has to debate their opponents.

Strongly Disagree

If we continue going along the path we are going of separating the races and demonizing everything Western then yes race relations could lead to violent end. We need to teach all history and listen to our elite intellectuals such as Thomas Sowell who is a black economist with studied extensively black history around the world. His writings should be mandatory teaching to every student in the United States

Agree

No

ideas come from the left the rights my only concern is will it work and help the people of this country. I am a staunch defender of our Constitution. I believe in freedom of speech even if it’s hate speech! We need to free exchange of ideas that is the only way we will understand each other and be able to live in a free society. I do not believe in this cancel culture because this is a totalitarian view of the world. We need to bring people together by listening to each other. We must relearn that we can agree to disagree and still be friends. This is the only way our constitutional republic can survive. We must remember George Washington’s farewell address where he stated “one of the chief dangers of letting regional loyalties dominate loyalty to the nation as a whole was that it would lead to factionalism, or the development of competing political parties. When Americans voted according to party loyalty, rather than the common interest of the nation, I feared it would foster a “spirit of revenge,” and enable the rise of “cunning, ambitious, and unprincipled men” who would “usurp for themselves the reins of government; destroying afterwards the very engines, which have lifted them to unjust dominion.” I feared this is where we are at right now our country is facing grave dangers internally and externally no. This is why I’m running for office to try to bring people back together. This is what I’ve been doing my entire life growing up in the military and working in the private, public and nonprofit sectors I have a vast understanding of American life. And I’ve worked with people in both parties from the beginning of my political career. That’s why I have Democratic and Republican endorsements. Let’s heal this nation continuously divided.

Strongly Agree

Except under extreme circumstances where they were criminally negligent

Disagree

we need to increase the funding for mental illness but this should not come at the expense of public safety

the only restriction I would place on gun ownership is extensive training in the proper care usage and safety of gun ownership. I would mandate at least the 60 hour training course before people can purchase firearms.

Strongly Disagree
