Top Priorities if elected:
“I am the only fiscal conservative in the race – a vital issue given
our rampant spending and debt, the devalued dollar and the rash of
“bailouts” approved by both major political parties. I am the only
candidate who is at all serious about ending our ongoing efforts in
Iraq. I am the only candidate who opposes corporate subsidies: taking
your money and giving it to companies. I am the only candidate who
speaks forcefully to issues of economic justice like payroll taxes and
Social Security.”
Why you are running? “People often say
they want political ‘change.’ My candidacy offers a test of that claim.
Are you going to waste your vote on more of the same, or are you going
to choose a qualified, fresh choice? Thanks for your consideration.”
