12. The government should work to reduce children's exposure to offensive radio and television content. I put Neutral, he has no problem saying he wants to "bomb the s*** out of isis" at his rallies but I don't think he would want it broadcast on Nickelodeon.

24. Flag burning should be banned. Agree
25. I support affirmative action. Usually Agree, I don't think he's ever used it himself but he's fine with it if others do.
26. The government should impose tariffs to protect industries from foreign competition. Agree, this is a critical issue to him
27. Physician-assisted suicide should be legal if the patient is capable of informed, rational consent. Disagree, he hasn't said anything about this but he would have to be against publicly no matter what he really thinks
