"I declare and affirm that I will hold myself bound
to bear allegiance to the Constitution of the United States of America, and will use my personal energies and resources to
convince the leadership of the political party, for which I am a candidate, to focus its legislative actions only to issues
that do not usurp the rights that are reserved by the Constitution to the States or to the People. I will not bear allegiance
to any political party or party leadership when its direction, policies, or proposed legislation or actions conflict with
the Constitution of the United States of America, so help me God."
Constitution Commit to strict adherence
to the US Constitution. Propose and support legislation requiring Congress to identify and verify that all new proposed legislation
meets specific US Constitution guidance. Study legislation presently on the books to determine adherence to strict Constitutional
principles with the goal of eliminating all unconstitutional executive orders, bills, laws, resolutions, regulations and requirements.
Budget/Economy/ Balance the Federal Budget. Stand firm for capitalism principles as the bedrock for American
free market. Lower or eliminate taxes on businesses to encourage job creation. Eliminate the Death tax, thus allowing small
businesses and family farms the ability to be transferred to the next generation without costly schemes. Investigate and demand
prosecution for any criminal or ethical violations associated with the 2008/2009 economic crisis.
Defense The
defense of the United States is the primary mission of the government, without which all other rights and privileges mean
nothing. That requires a military force that is second to none in technology and advanced weaponry together with the infrastructure
to support an advanced global fighting force. Before sending America’s men and women into battle, a congressional declaration
of war must be approved.
Energy Our country has abundant sources of energy, but our government has stifled
development. Drill off our coasts, begin processing our abundant resources of shale in the western states, and build nuclear
power plants. Use our coal resources to create synthetic fuel, and use technology to make the burning of coal cleaner.
Immigration Laws on the books must be enforced. This starts with adequately funding our Border Patrol. A nation
is not a nation unless it can control its borders. Interpreters or defense attorneys cannot be provided for illegal aliens
at taxpayer expense. There is room for only one flag and one language, English. All Federal and State documents, including
voting ballots and drivers license testing, shall be in English only.
Health-care We have the finest health-care
system in the world. Socialized medicine would be a disaster for this country. Innovation and the proper use of technology
can streamline and reduce the cost of health-care in America to where every American citizen can receive the superior care
that our system produces.
Respect for Life Oppose destruction of life, truly respect God's power of creation
and the blessing he gives us in our children. Also, with the number of qualified couples seeking children to adopt, babies
born from unwanted pregnancies can expect a loving family to care for them.
Marriage The sanctity of marriage
by definition is the bond of holy matrimony between one man and one woman.
Term Limits Professional politicians
have nearly destroyed the United States as a nation of freedom, liberty and the capitalist system. Term limits for Representatives
and Senators should be limited to three terms and one term respectively.
Federal Reserve The Federal Reserve
should be brought under total US Government audit, but preferably abolished with appropriate functions returned to the United
States Treasury.
We are a nation that has a government.....not the other way around. Smaller government means reduced business regulation,
controlling inflation, reducing growth in government spending, and spurring economic growth through tax cuts. You cannot
grow the economy by growing big government. It kills small business and drives large business overseas.
I believe and profess that all people are endowed by our Creator with certain unalienable rights, that
amongst these are Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness.
My first test of legislative viability of any bill will be to ask: "What is our Constitutional authority
to do this?" And, if no Constitutional authority exists, I promise to do two things: a) Vote against
it. b) Engage the media publicly to express the unconstitutionality of the bill.
GOD BLESS AMERICA! THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH AMERICA THAT CAN'T BE FIXED
