- Telling like it is. I believe in making decisions based in fact and not conjecture or alternative facts (lies).
- I will always work with others to get the job done.
- A campaign is nothing more than a very long job interview so the people can hire me to represent them in an official capacity.
Education: We must work toward a standardized education system across the U.S. . This is imperative that all Americans can form critical decisions based on previous actions taken throughout history.
