Immigration › Muslim Immigrant Ban
5>5 Personal answerYes, it is in the best long-term interests of this Nation to do everything we can to stop Muslim immigration. Islam is not a religion, it is an aggressive, expansionist POLITICAL doctrine that views any accommodation it gets from an "infidel" state to be a sign of weakness that only serves to drive them to greater and more onerous concessions until they overthrow that government and install sharia law. After 15 years in Saudi Arabia I know their conditioned instincts better than they do as they are oblivious to anything but islamic thought. |

Education › Student Loans
5>5 Personal answergovernment student loans should be be at the rate banks pay for Fed funds and all current loans should be retroactively adjusted and refunds given to students who paid the exorbitant rates back to the beginning of the program. Education should be regarded as a solid investment in the betterment of the Nation and not an opportunity to fleece students. |
Social › Death Penalty

the Economy › Government Spending

Foreign Policy › Israel
5>5 Personal answerNo, cut all support and aid as their current Prime Minister famously said to our current POTUS that "we don't need your help...". Take him at his word and do NOT allow any donations to Israel or its agencies/surrogates to be tax deductible. Israel has killed more US servicemen since the Korean War than ANY other nation on the planet. Sharon had prior knowledge of the truck bomb attacks on the Marine barracks and Embassy but did not warn us. He gave his troops detailed descriptions of the vehicles so they could avoid any injury. The reason was that President Reagan put troops into Lebanon to protect it's citizens from Israel's illegal invasion of Lebanon and he refused to back Israel's DEMAND that he guarantee their $2 billion bond issue. He said that these attacks would teach Reagan a lesson in who controls the Near East. |
Immigration › Immigrant Assimilation

Immigration › Skilled Immigrants
5>5 Personal answerDecrease, and the government should provide free tuition for all QUALIFIED students, not for academic failures, to ensure the future technological, scientific, and business personnel required to ensure for our economic future. The waste in military spending, alone, can easily achieve this most constructive, nation-building goal. |
Domestic Policy › Affirmative Action

the Economy › Labor Unions
5>5 Personal answerHelp |
the Economy › Capital Gains Tax
5>5 Personal answerYes |
Immigration › In-State Tuition
5>5 Personal answerNO! What part of "illegal" is unclear? Illegals convicted of criminal offenses should immediately deported when their sentence is up, bio-metrically documents. The rest should be assessed to determine if they would have met all requirements for being accepted as a legal immigrant. Children born in the USA are "fruits of a crime" and should be regarded as part of the family, not as an individual. |
Education › Common Core
5>5 Personal answerThe USA has the most poorly educated citizenry of all of the Western and advanced Asian nations. Academic standards were lowered to allow unfit students to attend college and university and still "succeed", a dismal and harmful practice that began in the early 70's. A realistic and honest national standard is a MUST if we wish to halt the dumbing down of a population, a situation that makes only politicians happy. |
the Environment › Oil Drilling
5>5 Personal answerYes |
Foreign Policy › Yemen
5>5 Personal answerABSOLUTELY NOT ! ! ! This is a RELIGIOUS conflict and it would be insane for us to get involved. The Saudis are Wahhabi nut-bars (a crazed Sunni sect) whereas the Yemenis are Shi'a, heretics in the eyes of their un-feared enemy. The Saudis have no hope of success: the Yemenis are the toughest fighters imaginable - i've met them while living in Saudi for 15 years. As a former soldier i would fight almost anyone but NOT these hard-assed little guys - most are about 5'2". Their skill in mountain warfare is unmatched, even compared to the Gurkhas. In spite of the massive amount of advanced military hardware, including the best available aviation assets, their invasion has failed and now the Yeminis are attacking Najran and their missiles have hit Taif! |
Foreign Policy › United Nations
5>5 Personal answerYes. It serves as an excellent platform to make our views known to all. |
the Environment › Fracking
5>5 Personal answerNo |

5>5 Personal answerYes, but a mandatory single payer system would be even better |
Elections › Candidate Transparency
5>5 Personal answerNo |
the Economy › Overtime Pay
5>5 Personal answerYes |
Domestic Policy › Eminent Domain
5>5 Personal answerYes, as long as landowners are fairly compensated and the projects will benefit the community |
Foreign Policy › Military Spending
5>5 Personal answerDecrease and weed out all of the incredible pork-barrel spending created by our sleazy politicians who direct funds to their districts to keep unnecessary project alive. We have more tanks in storage than in use and factories are producing more! We have more ships than required as technology has dramatically improved the effectiveness of each vessel in the Navy. The tremendous over-spending could easily pay for college and university tuitions for ALL current students! |
Science › Nuclear Energy
5>5 Personal answerYES, but using the most advanced, non-polluting technology currently under development. However, all other alternative technologies should be assessed first and nuclear used as a last resort. |
Foreign Policy › Torture
5>5 Personal answerYes, allow the use of psychological tactics but consult with allies who are more sophisticated in these techniques. It is quite easy to destroy a fanatic's belief in Islam IF you know how to debunk it's ridiculous tenets. I, an atheist and historian, lived in Saudi Arabia for 15 years and knew more about Islam than even the mutawah (religious police). On several occasions I convinced well-indoctrinated Saudis that Islam was a deeply flawed religion. I am confident that I could "turn" most jihaddi crazies. |
Foreign Policy › North Korea Military Strikes
5>5 Personal answerNo. It is almost a certainty that the current thug-in-charge over there knows that his missile(s) attack won't succeed and that he and his myrmidons will be vapourized seconds after the launch. Our nuke subs are always stationed just off his shores: of this he is keenly aware. Like most weak entities he talks trash... |
Foreign Policy › Foreign Aid
5>5 Personal answerAid is uses as a political tool but, given our childish approach and understanding of real-life international politics, most countries know how to play us as fools. The majority of "aid" that goes to 3rd World nations actually goes straight into their rulers' Swiss bank accounts or is skimmed off by corrupt US companies who help to "implement" these funds in "projects". Go to any of these leech-countries and try and find ANY significant construction, other than palaces and Mercedes limos. |
Foreign Policy › ISIS Ground Troops
5>5 Personal answerNo, we should stay out of this conflict. They are the inevitable result of decades of inane US interference several Near East countries due to Israel's stranglehold on our politicians. They do Israel's bidding and are still sacrificing our sons' lives for this bunch of arrogant ingrates. If we want "terrorism" to stop then we must stop being regarded throughout the planet as the greatest proponents of terrorism. The US has unjustly invaded more nations than any other state since WWII, and mostly in service to the Zionists. If we stop murdering innocents in Muslim countries then they will switch their focus back to Israel... do you see the connection? ? ? |
Foreign Policy › Drones
5>5 Personal answerNo, the military has no right to do so without a Congressional declaration of war. These illegal strikes are yet further proof that the USA has a Clinton view of justice: "laws are meant for the little people, not us". Only Israel of all the countries in the world, approve as we are doing their work for them. These terrible and arrogant drone strikes turn the attention of terrorist to the USA and away from Israel. These Zionists actually laugh with joy when another attack hits our troops as they know that our political naivete will prevent us from seeing beyond the end of our short nose. |
Science › GMO Labels
5>5 Personal answerYes |
the Economy › Estate Tax
5>5 Personal answerNo |

Foreign Policy › Terrorism
5>5 Personal answerNo, they are not U.S. citizens and do not have constitutional rights |
Foreign Policy › War on ISIS
5>5 Personal answerNo, we should stay out of Middle Eastern conflicts. The only reasons we are in Afghanistan, Iraq, and Syria are: 1) Dick Cheney and his oil-hungry friends; 2) the staggering amount of money that was skimmed off of the the monies allocated to "nation building"; 3) The AIPAC/Israeli lobby wanted the USA to fight their wars and have US troops die supporting their racist state; and, and, and.... |
Science › Space Exploration
5>5 Personal answerNo, the government should leave human space travel to private companies as they have the incentive to minimize cost while not killing their customers. They, including foreign companies, can compete in tenders to provide launch services for all government activities. |
Foreign Policy › NATO
5>5 Personal answerThe member states should spend in accordance with terms of the Nato agreement that they signed - period! |
Foreign Policy › Ukraine
5>5 Personal answerNo, we should stay out of conflicts that do not directly threaten us |
the Economy › Offshore Banking
5>5 Personal answerNo, and neither should corporations and business organizations |
Domestic Policy › Edward Snowden
5>5 Personal answerYes, he should be protected under the Whistleblower Protection Act |
Foreign Policy › NSA Surveillance
5>5 Personal answerOf course: they all are spying on us and everyone else as well! This is a standard practice that goes back thousands of years. Even asking the question illustrates the level of naivete that abounds in the USA, aka as the Under-educated States of America. |
the Economy › Federal Reserve
5>5 Personal answerYes |
the Economy › Farm Subsidies
5>5 Personal answerYes, but only small local farms instead of large corporations |
Foreign Policy › Cuba
5>5 Personal answerYes |
the Economy › Property Taxes
5>5 Personal answerNo |
the Economy › Pension Reform
5>5 Personal answerNo, privately managed accounts will jeopardize the financial security of senior citizens |
the Economy › Government Pensions
5>5 Personal answerYes, but only for low-income pensioners |
the Economy › Bitcoin
5>5 Personal answerNo, it provides too high of risk for criminal activity |
the Economy › Trans-Pacific Partnership
5>5 Personal answerNo, this will incentivize companies to move jobs out of the country |
the Economy › Online Sales Tax
5>5 Personal answerYes, exempting online retailers from sales taxes is not fair to traditional stores |
