Campaign Emphasis:

1. Restoring the size and scope of the federal government to conform to the proper role defined by the US Constitution. Our representatives took an oath to uphold the constitution and should be held accountable when it is disregarded to pursue special interest agendas.

2. Replacing the personal income and payroll taxes with a national sales tax, such as the Fair Tax. This approach will greatly reduce the compliance burden associated with IRS mandates, eliminate taxes for those below the poverty level, reduce loopholes to ensure all pay their fair share, establishes a true progressive tax, and gives consumers control over their taxes based on their spending choices.

3. Promoting the reform of our foreign policy to curtail acting as the world's police force and intervening in the internal affairs of other sovereign states. In parallel, our national defense capabilities must be enhanced so that our borders may be secured and we can swiftly and decisively react to threats from abroad.

4. Restoring proven free-market, private-sector solutions to our failing healthcare, welfare, and Social Security programs.

5. Safeguarding our individual freedoms and right of self-determination. If the choices or actions of an individual are not imposed upon and does not harm another, then the government should not be involved. Currently, we frequently see infringements on our freedom of speech, choice, privacy, and so on; this must be put to an end.

6. Promoting fiscal responsibility to eliminate wasteful spending and unconstitutional government programs. My innovative approach will serve to diminish the national debt rather than saddle our children with this burden, leave more of taxpayer's hard-earned money in the hands of taxpayers, and promote a stronger economy.

Successful -- politicians are insecure and intimidated men. They advance politically only as they placate, appease, bribe, seduce, bamboozle or otherwise manage to manipulate the demanding and threatening elements in their constituencies. -- Walter Lippmann
