I immigrated from the Caribbean to America 50 years ago where I lived in NY and MA. I came to NH 38 years ago and took up residence with my wife in Nashua about 10 ago as home owners. I am self employed for 22 years in the entertainment industry.

I questioned the differences between the two Parties and came to realization that the Republican Party’s Ideals are more in-line with those of mine.

I have experienced America’s racial divide back in the 70's. I have also seen the improvements in race relations in America though the 80’s until the shameless systematic assault on the fabric of America by the democrats back in 2008, which has only gotten worse since then

As a simple Christian man, involved in my church, these are the conversations that I have with family, friends and neighbors. I have decided that it’s time for one more black republican to step to the plate and serve.

  • LAW AND ORDER. We need to feel safe as we move about. The current laws must be enforced and stop with the creation of new laws. we need to prosecute the law breakers. Our police is being challenged by the criminal eliment and without the proper support. I will support our police.
  • THE US ECONOMY is in the shits. There are a few contributing factors but the death of our energy independance I believe is a major factor.
  • TAXES. This Liberal Government is hard at work inventing more and more reasons for increased taxation. This must be haulted. No new taxes. No increased taxation.

THE SECOND AMMENDMENT must be protected. Crime is rampant throughout this country. Criminals follow their own laws/rules. The law abiding citizen, by definition is limited by the law, deprived of their own self defense and denied their 2nd ammendment.

The bastardization of America by the democrats and liberals must be stopped. Civility must be restored. GOD back in our schools.

Avalon For State Rep.png
For years, I and many have blamed both parties for the sorry condition of our politics. We've hoped for someone to come along and do the right thing. Not to be beholding to any special interests. Reagan implemented great policies but that independent individual whom I would follow was and is Trump.
A willingness to work with others to achieve the republican conservative ideals
The first Lewis family member to win political office
I believe it's more beneficial to voice the pros and cons of whatever when necessary for a clearer understanding of what's at stake.
A combination of many experiences would be vastly beneficial but not necessary. This provides for multiculturalism.
Certainly. A plurality on any particular bill, and the bigger that plurality the better.
I don't clearly understand the reasoning of the redistricting process. People might leave one district for another or simply moved away. Then that district is redrawn to take constituents from another district. I think it's confusing.
As a new legislator and with the discombobulation that I expect, I prefer ,,,,baby steps.
One story I remember is from a time when I was campaigning for another candidate in the previous cycle. The was about the control of the Nashua Police, City or state. This particular older individual schooled me on an amazing history of who controlled and controls the police.
I don't think I have a favorite joke but, If it's funny, I'll laugh at it
Compromise has become necessary to get most anything done. From my prospective, it would depend on what's being compromised.
