| Issue | Position Summary |
|---|---|
| Abortion | Against elective abortion. In favor of making allowances for abortion when the life of the mother or baby is in jeopardy, or in cases of rape or incest. |
| Gay Marriage | Against same-sex marriage. |
| Marijuana | Possibly for medical purposes. I don't support the recreational use of marijuana, however, I also don't think that domestic marijuana is a federal issue, based on the U.S. Constitution. |
| Gun Control | We have a right to own guns. We have a right to bear guns. Certainly this should apply anywhere on a person's own private property. |
| Taxes | I think the income tax should be abolished along with the many unconstitutional federal programs. Until then, cut spending and lower taxes. |
| Freedom of Religion | The constitution prevents the federal government from legislating an endorsement of religion, but it does not mandate that religion has no place in government. |
| States' Rights | The federal government has overstepped its bounds in many areas and encroached on the rights of the people to govern themselves as they see fit. I think this is the major issue of our times. |
