Social Issues
General philosophy: libertarian/liberal
Abortion: Keep abortion legal but ban partial birth Age of Consent: Reduce to 16 across the board Separation of church and state: Support; eliminate the National Day of Prayer, and remove "God" from money and Pledge of Allegiance. Marriage: Support gay marriage Affirmative Action: Oppose Gun rights: I support this measure, but we need to keep this as a state issue. Death Penalty: Oppose Censorship: Oppose Flag burning: Undecided Hate crimes: Oppose any legislation. You can't prove any kind of hate... Hate speech: ^ Smoking: I oppose public banning. Alcohol consumption: Keep laws like these as lenient as possible Euthanasia: Support Drugs: Legalize all drugs Gambling: Support legalizing across the country Prostitution: Support Embryonic Stem Cell Research: Support Immigration: Secure the borders. We need to make a path to citizenship for those who are illegal.
Economic Issues
General Philosophy: moderately capitalist
Taxes: Cut taxes as much as we can across the board. I support the flat tax. Spending: Cut as much waste as we can. NO BAILOUTS. Social Security: Partially privatize. Space Program: It's a nice service. I'm a bit biased since I love astronomy, but whatever. Welfare: I don't favor eliminating welfare, but there needs to be EXTREME amounts of reform. Healthcare: I support medical savings accounts. Education: Throw everything over to vouchers and charter schools. Our system is a disaster and it's the only way I can think of that can actually help the system. Increased spending won't help this at all. Energy: Increased domestic and offshore drilling. We also need to invest in alternative sources. Corporate subsidies: End all of them.
Foreign Issues
United Nations: Get out NOW Israel: Support Military involvement: Slash military spending, remove most military bases abroad
