1. What is the biggest challenge facing the office you are seeking?

Congress should place a check and balance on the U.S. Supreme Court by allowing both houses with a super majority along with the executive to over-rule legal decisions. The Court is obstructing justice with its porn-prostitution defending decisions which destroys families, leads to drug addiction, crime, higher taxes, and terrorism.

2. What will be your top priority once you take office?

The CDC predicts 80% of women will acquire the HPV STD by age 50 and 30-50% of all teens 14-19 have had at least 1 STD. Forty percent of all children in Indiana are born out-of-wedlock, and we’ve tripled our prisons since 1975. I’m going after the Porn Dragon who authors this.

3. What changes need to be made in the office you are seeking?

We need mandatory debates for candidates who earned 10% or more in a prior campaign. Congressmen should be able to vote by proxy via their staff. Each legislation should have only related material attached. Congress should move to Chattanooga, Tennessee. Pork barrel earmark tax wasting must stop.
