Are you an NDN Democrat?

[Kaine for Senate '18]

I agree with most of that, yeah.

[Kaine for Senate '18]

//Abortion

Pro-choice but okay with certain restrictions (e.g. partial birth). No litmus tests on this issue.
Correct.

//Balanced Budget

A large decrease in federal spending. A Balanced Budget Amendment to ensure responsible fiscal management.
No BBA, don't gut the programs, but eliminate useless pork barrell spending.

//Business Tax

Moderate decrease in business taxation. Current rates put us at a competitive disadvantage; help small business.
I agree.

//Education

Eliminate No Child Left Behind. Increase Teacher Salaries in exchange for less job security. Some vouchers; Charter schools provide competition.
Good.

//Energy

Invest in alternative energy including Nuclear Power and end oil company subsidies. Allow ANWR drilling and local offshore drilling. Cut oil use significantly by 2025.
Good except for the striked part.

//Environment

Work to reduce emissions and harmful toxins. Modified Kyoto.
Yes.

//Gun Control

Gun control is a state issue. No federal gun control.
Good, except perhaps for a background check.

//Health Care

Universal health care whether public or private. Require health insurance for every child.
Correct.

//Homeland Security

We must defend ourselves only if attacked. Increase some security, funding for natural disasters. Oppose Patriot Act, it erodes our rights and freedoms (e.g. probable cause).
I concur.

//Immigration

Illegal immigration is a serious problem. Tighter border security, including a wall and fines. Reform immigration laws.
Yes, but no wall.

//Iran

Diplomacy and carrot-and-stick economic approach is key. No military action, offer trade liberalization if they comply.
For the moment, yes.

//Iraq War

Begin pulling out troops gradually. Partition Iraq.
Indeed.

//Trade

Reform NAFTA. End tax incentives for companies sending jobs overseas, encourage investment here.
Yes sir.

//Personal Tax

Repeal Bush Tax Cuts for wealthy to balance the budget.
Yup.

//Same Sex Marriage

Support but the Democrats need to neutralize this issue. It's being used as a distraction nationally by the far right.
Hell yes.

//Social Security

Cut social security benefits for the well off. Keep congress from raiding the trust fund.
Agree.

//Unions

Labor demands must be balanced with business concerns.
Agree.

//War on Terror

We must focus on Al Qaeda, the War in Iraq is a distraction.[/quote]
Agree.
