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
The right to life is Biblical for me personally. In addition, scientist have confirmed that life starts at the moment of conception. I do not believe if you do not believe in something, you shouldn't be forced to support it.
Under what circumstances should an elective abortion be allowed?
I don't believe an abortion should ever be allowed. Elective means optional, and taking a human life that has done nothing wrong but exist should be an option.
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.
Neutral
Completely neutral about this.
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?
Minimum wage is only meant to be a stepping stone to grow into a career of whatever the career choice is. You should never stay at a minimum wage job long term. If you stay at a minimum wage job, you have willfully decided to not improve your life.
Free enterprise and the right to private property are essential elements of a productive economic system.
Strongly Agree
Creating your own American dream is what comes to mind. Open markets and the capitalist system have brought people out of poverty. You get exactly what put in. I believe in hard work, my wife and I have worked hard to make our American Dream come true and I know that we could do it all again if we lost everything.
List your top 3-5 priorities to eliminate government waste.
Reduce Fraud, reduce government regulations, and have a balanced budget and remove things that do not benefit americans.
RELIGIOUS LIBERTY
What does "separation of church and state" mean to you?
Separation of Church and state, means the state and federal government can't create laws that go against religion. However I believe it is imperative that godly men and woman should constantly be involved in local, state, and federal government. Simple fact is people are are true godly people want what's best for the people and will do exactly that, what's best for the people. The separation of church and state is simple the state cannot interfere with the church.
Individuals and businesses should be required to provide services even if it would violate their moral and/or religious beliefs.
Strongly Disagree
Services is not a right, services are provided from knowledge and skills and should be justly compensated. Forcing individuals and businesses to provide services defeats the purpose of why individuals and businesses give out of heart felt generosity.
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.
D. Medical services fall into the category of goods and services. Forcing Medicaid and Medicare is a socialist thing.
The government should keep a database of people with various ongoing medical illnesses to assess the economic burden of treatment.
Strongly Agree
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?
The relationship is Biblical to me. In the Torah, the Israelites are the chosen people of God. Salvation if comes from the Jews John 4:22. Israel is the holy home land and is where my Lord and Savior came from. However I do not believe that American is not responsible for the actions of Israel. We should protect them but not fight for them without just cause like any other country.
IMMIGRATION
I support the existence of sanctuary cities to protect undocumented persons.
Strongly Disagree
It is unfair for my family members who have came here from Mexico and the Philippines legally and become American citizens. It is a slap to the face to Americans and those who have come here through legal channels.
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
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
It's the parents right to raise their children no one else.
Attempts to physically or socially transition a child to the opposite sex constitute child abuse.
Strongly Agree
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 support the expansion of gambling in my state.
Strongly Disagree
Briefly describe your spiritual beliefs and values.
I gave my life to the Lord in November of 2025. I was raised Catholic but have become Christian because Christ is the Way, the Truth, and the Life. I believe that the Bible is true and real. Man was created from God. God gave us the Bible as (Basic Instructions Before Leaving Earth). Becoming a Christian does not make me better than anyone else at all, but I am to live a life dedicated to Jesus Christ. Loving someone is always being truthful even if the truth hurts them end of story.
ELECTIONS AND VOTING
People should be able to vote without photo identification.
Strongly Disagree
EQUALITY
Reparations should be given to people on the basis of race.
Strongly Disagree
If you have never been a slave, why do you deserve reparations?
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?
Unsure to be honest.
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 I have, however you would not find a record of it as I have gone through the legal process to remove my felony records and have also received my 2nd Amendment rights back. I do not shy away from my past whatsoever, however frankly I had to suffer the consequences of my actions. My past doesn't define the man I am today, but it has helped shaped me to the man I am today. Judge me by my life now and by the people I allow into my life.
CRIMINAL JUSTICE & PUBLIC SAFETY
What should be the goal of the criminal justice system?
To remove dangerous criminals off the streets and to turn the into productive members to society.
Government has a responsibility to protect children from sexual exploitation during online activities.
Strongly Agree
It is the Governments job to protect its citizens and serve the people period. Children are a gift from God everyone should protect them.
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 the U.S. Constitution. Sharia Law should be outlawed and have severe consequences to anyone who tries to enforce it.
2ND AMENDMENT
What restrictions on gun ownership are needed to protect public safety?
There should be NO GUN RESTRICTIONS! Only restrictions are for felons to lose their gun rights with a legal way to restore them as long as it was not a violent offense.
