Platform

I have been personally outraged by what Congress, our Presidents, and the Federal Reserve has done over the last few decades and I deem their collective actions as oppressive and tyrannical.

As there is no hope for my concerns and grievances to be addressed by the current government, I've decided to make myself available and talk and discuss ideas with whoever wants to consider me to represent them in my district.

Several of the more important planks that are not typical:

1. Government Accountability and Transparency. I will create a novel forum-like system I've nicknamed the "Open Office" if elected. This will enable all residents to have a public voice in our government.
2. Prosperity through Monetary Policy Change. This is the key reason I am running for federal Congress as the Constitution endows this branch of the government with this responsibility, which has been grossly abused.
3. A Foreign Policy of Peace, Commerce, and Honest Friendship in the spirit of Thomas Jefferson instead of the current foreign policy options which tend to be either bombs or sanctions, sanctions or bombs.

The specifics on each can be viewed in presentation format below. Issues such as health care, the income tax, gun rights, bailouts, etc. have already been posted.  The site is still being updated, please bear with the campaign as we work on completing it.

However, this website has a function unlike that of any other politician that I am aware of - please feel free to login and Start a Discussion on the front page if you have a question on any topic and I will do my very best to answer it directly.

It's time we take our country back!
