What in the nature of mankind caused America’s Founders to carefully define, separate, and limit powers in the Constitution?

They wanted a limited Federal government than only got involved in things authorized by the enumerated powers in the U.S. Constitution. They guarded against having a king or dictator by creating three co equal branches of government.

Based on the Declaration of Independence and the U.S. Constitution, please arrange the following entities, starting with the highest source of authority, and continue the list in descending order of authority, skipping any that do not apply: Academia, Congress, Constitution, God, Industry, Media, Professional Sports, Supreme Court, Voters.

God, Constitution, laws. State government is the original government. The various states created the federal government but with a specific list of powers. Pennsylvania created counties and municipalities. Screw the media.

Under what circumstances should abortion be allowed?

I believe that life begins at conception. Abortion kills unborn babies. Abortion should not be legal. I am very concerned that female babies and black babies are aborted in greater numbers than males and whites. It is a form of genocide and gender discrimination. It is very doubtful that a law banning abortions would survive a court challenge in the PA court system unless there were exceptions for the life of the mother, rape, etc.

Briefly describe your spiritual beliefs and values.

I am a practicing Roman Catholic. I try to live my life how God wants. We are all sinners but if we ask God for forgiveness and are sincere about it and if we accept the father, son and Holy Spirit we will go to heaven.

Considering all issues (social, economic, national security, etc.), which of these best describes you?

Very Conservative

Additional comment from candidate:

I will continue to vote on legislation the same way I have since I was elected. I always vote no on tax increases, I always vote yes on the right to own and bear arms, and I always vote pro life. I believe that state budget problems are a result of over spending, not under taxing. I will continue to support public sector pension reform. I will continue to fight against the over reaching federal government on things like Obamacare and Common Core. I believe the best way to help businesses create jobs is to have lower taxes and fewer regulations. Employees should have the right to NOT join a union and NOT pay union dues if they do not want to.
