• Term Limits: I believe that U.S. Senators should limit themselves to two consecutive terms and U.S. Representatives to three consecutive terms in the absence of Constitutional term limits. 

 

• U. S. Debt Ceiling:  I believe there should be a fixed cap linked to national GDP, with an exception for direct wartime expenditures in time of war only.

 

• Candidate Fundraising: No fund-raising until 12 months before the next election.

 

• Candidate Fund Accumulation:  I do not believe Senators or Representatives should carry over campaign funds from election to election. They should be required to contribute the balance in the account to charitable organizations such as Wounded Warriors and groups aiding battered women.

 

• Immigration:  I do not believe in amnesty, nor do I believe we can or should deport everyone who is not here legally. I do believe in securing our borders immediately, with limited deportations based on felony offenses. For me, immigration reform would involve provisional Social Security cards for all during processing, with those here illegally moving to the back of the citizenship line. I believe English is America's language. I would also enable a special fast track to citizenship for individuals serving in the military or as police, firefighters, doctors, or nurses, and their immediate families.

 

• Gun Control:  I believe the Second Amendment is clear and sacred, and oppose any form of national firearms registry.

 

• Extermination: I oppose abortion in all cases. except for threats to the mother's health. I oppose Planned Parenthood and its modern Eugenics activities in exterminating Black, Hispanic, and poor babies.

 

• Statism:  As an example of the federal government simply getting far too large for its citizens, we should stop Obamacare in its tracks. I believe we need to replace it with a plan that gives citizens more freedom and choice, but if necessary, will work to take this program apart one piece at a time. I also want to strive to educate all voters and citizens of the risk that an overly large government poses to their economic opportunities and to America's future.

 

• IRS: I would like to see the Internal Revenue Service replaced by a national consumption tax. I would also like to see small businesses removed from the tax base until their gross revenues exceed $2-$3 million annually, with a maximum tax rate of 10 to 15 percent for corporations that exceed the $2 million gross revenue threshold.

 

• Common Core: I believe that control of education belongs with the states, with local governments, and especially parents – NOT the federal government. The Department of Education should be eliminated. 

 

• Israel:  I believe the U.S. must stand with Israel as our longtime ally and as the only pluralistic democratic nation in the Middle East.  I support the moving of the U. S. Embassy to Jerusalem.

 

• Iran:  I believe tough sanctions have had an impact and that the current "deal" does almost nothing to deter Iran from becoming a nuclear power. We must continue to stand by tough sanctions and make it clear to the Iranians that military action is always an option.  

​

• North Korea:  I believe that North Korea represents a "clear and present" danger to the mainland United States and its allies. As such, we must be prepared to take "All" necessary actions to stop, or remove, this threat.  They are growing more dangerous every day.
