Why are you seeking elective office?

I will provide principled positive objective based leadership to reinvigorate our Founding principles of Individual Rights, State Sovereignty, and U.S. Unity and Independence.

The single most pressing issue facing our (board, district, etc.) is _______, and this is what I intend to do about it.

The founding principles of the United States are under assault from alien ideologies from foreign powers, and transnational corporations. Relying on our Founding principles, we will improvise, adapt, overcome, and reestablish individual rights, State Sovereignty, and the unity and independence of the United States of America. See my website for specifics.

What are the critical differences between you and the other candidates seeking this post?

I am principled, creative, and compassionate enough to find solutions that will bring tranquility despite harsh division. Additionally, I have the strength of character to do what is right for individual rights, State sovereignty, and U.S. unity and Independence.

If you are a challenger, in what way has the current board or officeholder failed the community (or district or constituency)

The failures of leaderships are on display everywhere, but our attention should be on the specific principled positive solutions that I propose. We will focus on where we want to go; back to freedom and prosperity!

Describe the other issues that define your campaign platform.

Free will, relationships, and agency through individual rights, State sovereignty, and U.S. unity and Independence.

What accomplishments in your past would you cite as evidence you can handle this job?

The fact that I was the second Republican to declare my candidacy for U.S. Senate and have been running my campaign persistently with very little overt support since August 2021 demonstrates that I am committed, that I care, that I am not a fair weather friend, and that I will advocate for our founding principles even when it marginalizes me completely from the mainstream. I have spoken out early with specific principled solutions that benefit the States and their people as well as our Union, and I have taken unpopular positions early on before others eventually found them necessary. These points alone demonstrate that I am sincere, resilient, and capable of leading from the U.S. Senate. In fact, my leadership is essential at this time!

The best advice ever shared with me was:

Instead I will share with you a quote by Dwight D. Eisenhower: "We must avoid becoming a community of fear and hate, and be, instead, a proud confederation of mutual trust and respect."

What else would you like voters to know about yourself and your positions?

I love you, and I want you and your progeny to be free and prosperous!
