I will uphold and adhere to the Constitution of the United States. I will read the Bills introduced by Congress. I believe that the government does not have the ability to solve all of our problems, and to take away all of our fears and concerns. I pledge that I will be the candidate promoting individual liberty, capitalism, and a strong national defense, and I will support policies that encourage such. It is my fundamental belief that limited government and greater individual responsibility will ensure the continued prosperity and success for future generations.

| I will reintroduce the concept of Urban Enterprise Zones with tax breaks for business ventures in our most blighted areas. We must encourage job growth and economic opportunities, particularly among the youth. Corporate job training programs must be rewarded by tax breaks. Our nation abounds in faith-based ministries with proven track records of success in breaking the cycle of poverty, and our government should support these successes. |

I pledge to save American children from the failing educational system. We need to break apart the alliance of elected officials and the teachers unions, which at best has institutionalized mediocrity and has failed children across the country. We need "CHOICE" in education and allow parents to decide the educational future of their children. I will fight for tax credits and choice of school for parents and their children.

I will look for Free-Market solutions to the problems facing the healthcare industry, and I will vigorously oppose any efforts to nationalize healthcare. I will fight for Individual health savings accounts, which includes "catastrophic insurance" for every American, so people can control their own healthcare choices. I will call for Tort reform to place a ceiling on lawsuit remedies to ease extravagant expense of mal practice insurance by doctors.

I pledge to be a supporter of Energy Independence and I support Immediate drilling in Anwar and the 48 states. I support building new refineries, to begin building and using Nuclear Facilities, expand coal mining and be a realistic steward of the environment. All of this can be accomplished while simultaneously working with private industry to develop the new energy technologies for the future, with the goal being that America becomes completely energy independent.
