Abortion
Requiring parental notification for women under 18 seeking abortions: No
Requiring parental consent for women under 18 seeking abortions: No
Banning interstate travel of women under 18 attempting to obtain abortions: No
Requiring spousal notification for married women seeking abortions: No
Requiring spousal consent for married women seeking abortions: No
Requiring a woman to have an ultrasound before obtaining an abortion: No
Requiring clinics to notify women of a hypothesis linking abortion with breast cancer: No
Banning the sale of metal coathangers: No
Prohibiting public funding of abortions: No
Reimbursing the cost of abortion under your favored health care system: If it was a health risk to the mother than I think it should be reimbursed. Otherwise I think it would fall under the catagory of elective surgery.
Banning dilation & extraction ("partial-birth abortion"): No
     a.) Life of the mother exemption?
     b.) Health of the mother exemption?
     c.) Life of the fetus exemption?
     d.) Health of the fetus exemption (i.e. birth defects)?
Banning late-term abortions: Yes
     a.) Life of the mother exemption? Yes
     b.) Health of the mother exemption? Yes
     c.) Life of the fetus exemption? Yes
     d.) Health of the fetus exemption (i.e. birth defects)? Yes
     e.) Rape exemption? Yes
Legalizing the 'morning-after pill' (emergency contraception): Yes
     a.) Requiring a prescription? No
     b.) Requiring parental consent for women under 18? No
Requiring abortion clinics to offer fetal anesthesia to women obtaining abortions: No
Mandatory waiting periods for women obtaining abortions: No
Mandatory pro-life counseling for women obtaining abortions: No
Funding for pro-life "crisis pregnancy centers": Well it depends; they shouldn't cast judgement upon those who want abortions but should be allowed to inform pregnant women of other options besides abortion. I'm leaning no though for federal funding especially and no funding at all if it is religiously based or uses religious materials to try and sway pregnant women away from abortion.

Adoption:
Allowing same-sex couples to adopt children: Yes
Allowing single parents to adopt children: Yes
Allowing bisexuals or homosexuals to serve as foster parents: Yes
Government reimbursement of all adoption fees: No

Affirmative Action:
Allowing affirmative action on the basis of race: No
Allowing affirmative action on the basis of socioeconomic status: Yes
Banning affirmative action for all universities which receive public funding: Depends on what type of affirmative action. I can stomach socioeconomic affirmative action but I would be for banning race based affirmative action.

Criminals' Rights:
Capital punishment: Yes
     a.) For treason? Yes
     b.) For murder? No
     c.) For terrorism? Yes
     d.) For rape? No
     e.) For kidnapping? No
Requiring sex offenders to have special license plates: No
Requiring public notification of rehabilitated sex offenders living in communities: No
Banning prisoners from voting: Yes, until they have completed their sentences
Banning ex-felons from voting: No

Immigration:
Criminalizing tipping off Mexicans about the Minuteman Project: No
Requiring hospitals providing medical care to illegal aliens to report them to the government: No
Denying medical care to illegal aliens: No
Applying civil liberties and anti-torture laws to non-immigrants: Yes
Guest worker program: Undecided, slightly better than the current system but I personally am in favour of a more open-boarders approach.
Granting amnesty to illegal aliens: Yes
Building a fence/wall across the Mexican border: No
Allowing illegal aliens access to social services, including public education: Yes
Including immigrants in your health care plan: Yes
