| Collapse all
- As a Marine, I served with people from all different backgrounds. It didn't matter where you were from, what your race was, or what political party you were in. We had a mission, and we worked together to achieve it.
- Effective representation means that all voices are important, regardless of political or party affiliation. Part of being a good representative is to be able to listen and learn from those who you represent. I don’t care what side of the aisle you stand on, I want to hear from you.
- The original intent of the government is to protect your rights and your property. In essence, it was designed to protect us from one another’s indiscretions and misdeeds. Our Constitution took it a step further in that it protects us from tyranny of excessive government by acknowledging the natural rights of man. When government evolves into “protecting me from myself”, it exceeds its authority. If a society desires to be free, we must also acknowledge the inherent risks associated with freedom. I would rather be subject to the animating contest of freedom in the tempestuous sea of liberty than live under a suffocating blanket of security in the calm harbor of despotism.
