Statement:
I am
running for office as a fiscally conservative, independent populist Republican
who is moderate on social issues. I am seeking office because I deeply care
about our country and its future. My mission is to represent the silent
majority of people who feel their voices are not being heard by both sides of
the current establishment; people whose personal liberties, constitutional
rights, and individual freedoms are under attack.
I have
great admiration for our system of government and opportunities this country
provides our citizens. At the same time, government spending needs to be
evaluated, streamlined, and become more efficient. We have more than enough
resources to prosper, although the overspending has caused our budget deficits
to balloon. This spending is not only irresponsible, but dangerous to our
future. We need to reinstate the Glass-Steagall Act and impose additional
reforms on the Wall Street and banking system. Audit and oversight of the
Federal Reserve should be implemented.
We need
to continue our efforts to increase private employment levels and foster
business and agriculture domestically. I would encourage emphasis on technical
and vocational education and preserving choice in schooling. The student loan
system needs to be reevaluated. We should end fighting wars, work on ending
corruption, implement term limits.
We need
to continue reforming our trade, healthcare, environmental protection, and
welfare systems. We should work on renegotiating trade agreements and strive to
reduce foreign trade deficits. We ought to improve consumer protection,
homeless, mental health, elderly care, veteran services.
I would
like to see a merit-based immigration system overhaul which would put more
emphasis on protecting our borders, adherence to the rule of law, and our labor
needs. We are entrusted to protect our laws, liberties, sovereignty, and right
to bear arms.
Put America First and God Bless You.
