OTHER INFORMATION
QUESTIONNAIRE
RIGHT TO LIFE
Abortion providers, including Planned Parenthood, should not receive taxpayer funds from federal, state, or local governments (including Title X grants).
Strongly Agree
Under what circumstances should an elective abortion be allowed?
None.
Human life deserves legal protection from conception until natural death.
Strongly Agree
The lives of human embryos created through artificial methods ought to be protected from purposeful destruction.
Strongly Agree
The Comstock Act, which bans interstate transportation of abortion-inducing drugs, should be enforced.
Strongly Agree
ECONOMY
What is your position on the minimum wage?
I believe increasing minimum wage increases prices and eventually turns into zero net gain for the recipients of that wage. A better answer would be to decrease inflation, taxation and government waste so the dollar can buy more.
Free enterprise and the right to private property are essential elements of a productive economic system.
Strongly Agree
List your top 3-5 priorities to eliminate government waste.
Root out fraud, stop wasteful spending and quit bailing out private enterprise. No business is to big to fail.
RELIGIOUS LIBERTY
What does "separation of church and state" mean to you?
It simply means religious entities should not be allowed to control the government, and the government should not be allowed to tell people how to worship. Our society is not a theocracy. This country was founded on Christian ideals, so things like removing bible verses from government buildings or taking prayer out of schools were not the intent of the separation of church and state.
Individuals and businesses should be required to provide services even if it would violate their moral and/or religious beliefs.
Strongly Disagree
The government has no right to tell private individuals or business enterprises how to administer their business,
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.
Healthcare is not a right. This question is much deeper than a first glance might show. Healthcare should be a private enterprise. Those who want it should be able to purchase it. Healthcare costs should be regulated. Many other countries offer the same medical services at less than half the cost required in the United States, and drugs are also significantly cheaper outside our borders. I am not opposed to some sort of help for low-income individuals, but those services must be fully vetted.
The government should keep a database of people with various ongoing medical illnesses to assess the economic burden of treatment.
Strongly Disagree
The government should not create or maintain any databases on law-abiding citizens. I believe this is a flagrant violation of the Fourth Amendment right to privacy.
NATIONAL SECURITY
The Chinese Communist Party poses serious military, cyber security, intellectual property, and global economic threats to the United States.
Strongly Agree
Is the United States' relationship with Israel important, and if so why?
Yes. Israel is the last bastion of freedom and sanity in the Middle East.
IMMIGRATION
I support the existence of sanctuary cities to protect undocumented persons.
Strongly Disagree
All leaders of sanctuary cities should be forcibly removed from office and convicted of sedition and harboring criminals.
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
To further strengthen that point, all educators should be fully vetted to ensure their allegiance to the United States; if they cannot be vetted, they should not be allowed to hold those positions. It seems U.S. citizens are now expected to accept every culture but their own. This has to stop.
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
The government should only get involved when the parents are causing or enabling serious harm to the children. Simple discipline and punishment, up to corporal punishment, do not warrant government involvement, but abuse in the form of physical and mental harm does.
Attempts to physically or socially transition a child to the opposite sex constitute child abuse.
Strongly Agree
A child has no understanding of the consequences of those types of decisions. If they did, then there should be no laws with age limits. Activities like voting and drinking would be available to young children if age of enlightenment was not an issue. No parent should have the right to enable or for ce a child to transition. In fact, that decision should should fall fall squarely on the shoulders of the individual wanting the procedure AFTER they become a legal adult at 21 years old.
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
Marriage has, throughout history, been defined that way. If two same-sex individuals wish to have a legally binding relationship, then it needs to be called something else.
I support the expansion of gambling in my state.
Strongly Agree
What's the difference between gambling and the lottery? If people want to gamble, they will find a way to do it. It's not the government's job to hold everybody's hand and tell them how to live their lives. All we can do as sensible people is to try to guide each other and teach of the dangers of some of these things. God gave Man free will. Who is above God to take it from us?
Briefly describe your spiritual beliefs and values.
I am a Christian conservative. I support the Constitution, and I believe in biblical values. I believe in helping people, and I also believe people have the right to live their lives as they see fit, whether I agree with their lifestyle or not. I believe in God, and I try my best to obey him and live within his framework.
ELECTIONS AND VOTING
People should be able to vote without photo identification.
Strongly Disagree
Absolutely not. Identity and citizenship must be verified during voting. Non-citizens should never be allowed to vote in our elections. Continuing this practice will cost our country its sovereignty.
EQUALITY
Reparations should be given to people on the basis of race.
Strongly Disagree
I am a member of the Delaware Indian Tribe. I'm not asking for reparations. I have never been a slave, nor have I ever owned one. I'm fairly certain almost everyone, if anyone at all, in the U.S. has also never been or owned a slave, so why should modern people pay or be paid for something that they never did or never happened to them?
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
1. Men, regardless of physical attributes, have XY chromosomes. 2. Women, regardless of physical attributes, have XX chromosomes. For those who didn't know the definition of a man or woman, you're welcome. Sex and gender are the same thing, and none of this has ever been an issue until it became medically possible to change (inadequately) some physical attributes. Men and women have no business in each other's sports or private spaces. If you can't tell the difference, refer to lines 1 & 2.
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 energy.
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.
No
CRIMINAL JUSTICE & PUBLIC SAFETY
What should be the goal of the criminal justice system?
To punish criminals for their crimes. To that end, the justice system must be hyper-vigilant to ensure the accused actually committed the offense before delivering punishment.
Government has a responsibility to protect children from sexual exploitation during online activities.
Strongly Agree
Sharia law should not be accepted or incorporated in any form within the legal framework of the United States.
Strongly Agree
Sharia law and Islam itself are fascist political systems. They are not compatible with Western society or the culture and beliefs of the people of the United States. The U.S. was founded on Christian beliefs, which is one of the reasons we have enjoyed the freedoms we were granted. Islam will end that. No Muslim should be allowed in political office in the U.S. One need only refer to Dearborn, MI, or New York, NY, to realize the fruits of Muslim influence here.
2ND AMENDMENT
What restrictions on gun ownership are needed to protect public safety?
None. Period. The only restriction on arms should be placed on the government to prevent it from telling us what arms citizens are allowed to possess. As I read the Constitution and look back at history, I am convinced no weapons should be restricted to law-abiding citizens, regardless of weapon type.
