Issue Position: Limited Government

Issue Position

We the people, not we the government, built this country. Belief in the individual is what made this country great and free. We each play a part in keeping the greatest nation that ever existed free, but more government is not the answer. I, and all the other soldiers who have fought for this country, did not fight for the government's right to tell us what to do. We want to carry on what was written in the Declaration of Independence, "Life, Liberty, and Pursuit of Happiness"; that is the American way of life. I'll always fight for less laws and more freedom, regardless of race, creed or religion. We may have different races and ethnic backgrounds but we are all united 1st and foremost as Americans!

"A wise and frugal government … shall restrain men from injuring one another, shall leave them otherwise free to regulate their own pursuits of industry and improvement, and shall not take from the mouth of labor the bread it has earned. This is the sum of good government." -- Thomas Jefferson
