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.

- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
