Get StartedChances are extremely good that if you're reading this, your parents believed in choosing life too. I'm one of those people who adds "born and unborn" to the Pledge of Allegiance (when I'm not the only one doing so as to not draw undue attention to myself), because The Declaration Of Independence guarantees the right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness (property). I believe the liberty of the individual begins with life of the unborn child in the womb from the moment of conception. Learn more
Yes, I believe marriage should be between one man and one woman. You've got to admit, it's been the basic building block of humanity's survival for many thousands of years; besides, it's what The Good Book promotes. However, I also believe in the principles of Liberty which imply personal responsibility, but Liberty also says you're free to marry your hamster, if you want; and, I'm not going to stop you if you do.

Anyone who honorably served deserves our total debt of gratitude, and this goes for police, fire fighters, and EMTs too; and, not only gratitude, but they deserve government care and benefits for putting their lives on hold and on the line for us. It is because of them that we enjoy the liberties that we now have. To all of you who may be reading this, thank you for your service, and God Bless!. Learn more
More laws equal less liberty, and the more regulation, the higher the cost of doing business that gets passed on to you. I pledge to help reduce needless regulation strangling progress. Government should be a small as possible while still protecting the liberty of the people. This involves enforcing laws to protect the rights of the people while eliminating wasteful regulation.

Our children are our future. If we don't teach them the way in which they should go, then we as a society will end up going nowhere. The greatest boost to my career was learning how to think, which has turned out to be much more valuable than what to think. If for example, you teach our children about fish, and not how to fish, then they will starve when we are gone; however, if you don't teach our children about the government that they were given, then they will lose it, and never get it back.

Yes, I believe the Sun warms the planet, and it heats and cools in cycles; however, I DO NOT believe in anthropogenic (human-caused) global climate change. The fact that Massachusetts adhering to the Paris Climate Accord will only reduce global temperatures by just 0.0022°C by 2100, for example, not only proves we're really not the cause of global climate change, but verifies that there's a political objective at work. Rights come from property, for which the law was created to protect, but when the law is legally changed to steal from us with a trumped-up excuse (global climate change), that's Socialism, for which in this case, Global Communism is sure to follow.

When I was out campaigning for Quincy City Council At-Large, I was asked about my support of unions. On this one, I define the middle by the extremes, because I am all for unions; if, they are ultimately helping the company, the workers, and the public. I admit, unions totally helped make this country great! The opposite extreme can be seen with the example of what happened to the makers of the Hostess Twinkie. Learn more
What part of "shall not be infringed" do the opponents of our rights purposely not want to understand? A democracy is two wolves and a sheep voting on what's for dinner, but in our republic, the sheep has the right to be armed. By the wording, every law preventing citizens from being armed isn't Constitutional; however, I agree that there are those who should not have guns, including criminals who have abused their right to be armed, and the mentally ill. Democrats have purposely not kept the registry up to date, so when the system fails, they can blame the 2nd Amendment. Learn more
How do you lower taxes? Simple! Act the same as when you save up for something you really want. Spend less by cutting out non-essential spending, be more efficient with what you do spend, and curb the desire to buy things you don't need; except in this case, the tax payers get the savings as lower taxes. That's all there is to it. Learn more
No one should be forced to pay union dues as condition of employment. Labor unions should be like political parties. I'm not forced to pay for the privilege to vote or to register as a Republican, because it is my right. But, I do voluntarily give my time, energy, and money to the Republican Party, as well as to Republican candidates whom I support..., as long as they are worth supporting. Learn more
This is a double-edge sword. When set properly, it may help prevent employers from abusing employees by setting their wages too low, but that's all. When set too high, it will eliminate entry level jobs, cut hours, and forces employers to higher fewer workers to do more work, as well as disincentivizing higher skilled labor, forcing pay raises across the board. This leads to higher inflation from costs passed along in the increased prices of goods and services, undermining the increase in the minimum wage. Learn more
