| Collapse all
I am follower of Jesus Christ dedicated to uniting the body of Christ before His return. I believe the Founders of the United States meant it when they said we are "One Nation under God with Liberty and Justice for All". I am an Army Brat and wife of a Veteran and First Responder. Freedom comes with a price my family has paid for generations and I am now standing in the Gap. I am fighting for freedom by stepping up to the plate of Public Office as a State Senator in GEORGIA District 25 because if good men and women do nothing evil prevails. I am Chaplain and Licensed Professional Counselor,a wife and mother who cares about the future freedoms of our next Generation.I believe in hope through prayer changing our Nation back to One Nation Under God blessed by our Creator if we humble ourselves.
- One Nation Under God with Liberty and Justice for all.
- United we stand divided we fall, I will fight for truth and integrity in Government. Bringing people together through prayer and common concerns we the people have to pursue Life ,Liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness declared by our Forefather.
- We can't keep doing the same things expecting different results. Let's change our Government by bringing in the "people for the people" not more career politicians.
As a Mom I am concerned about the hopelessness of the next Generation. I am concerned about issues concerning the family. Every culture desenegrates when the family is not supported and destroyed.Better policy's are needed to provide mental health care and governmental systems in all levels of Government that work for the people. If people are stuck in Governmental systems that don't help them we need something new. Innovation in business can help motivate good changes. We are Americans and have been pioneers from the beginning, why stop thinking outside the box with Government.
I look up to great leaders in History who's faith and example changed History. President Abraham Lincoln and President Harry S. Truman are two leaders I admire because they made tuff decisions trying to help our country unite in most difficult circumstances. Jesus Christ is who they followed in word and deed, which is how I want to be regardless of how hard decisions and times are.
Read the United States Constitution and Declaration of Independence.
Integrity and transparency.
I am a Chaplain, Counselor, and communications major and everything rises and fall on communications.
To represent the people and the issues they face in their given area.
I would like to represent the people's voice and bring unity and Gods blessings on America.
The Bicentennial of the United States of America I was 12 and we were Stationed in Fort Knox Kentucky USA
I was recruited out of college as a management trainee for Roses when it was the fastest growing retail store in America. My goal was to be a buyer of goods for our retail chain. I worked in various stores over several years in North Carolina.
The Holy Bible because I love History and it's a History of Gods faithfulness. I also believe it's the living word because each time I read it I see something new.
Bugs Bunny "What's up Doc" The Bunny was always was one step ahead.
Give me your "eyes"to see the broken hearted,
When I broke my back in a car accident and couldn't walk I struggled to find my purpose after having been an athlete. I was newly married and was told I shouldn't have children and I originally wanted 8. After multiple miscarriages I realized without family were does our future lie?It took me on a journey to advocate for the broken. It helped me find God in a profound way. I am walking now after Jesus healed me and gave me a son. I don't take my health or family for granted.Its often what shapes us that was once a struggle. It's made me a fighter who always is dependent on my faith.
One of mutual respect and keeping the people represented in the forefront. Americans must always have the freedom of choice.
Economic security and qualifying our people to be able work and succeed. For families to be able to pursue and maintain the American Dream. I fear we will have more "Disasters" and lack the relief and support of government.
With some of the extreme disagreements of the party's the "people" have gotten turned off and many struggled to go vote. Unicameral could help people look at candidates versus party. If it brings more transparency to political world as Nebraska claims it might be worth considering.
No. I think the reason political environments are so stagnant and out of touch with the people is because they think they know better then the people. If staff is in position to support government new fresh perspectives keep good governance.
Yes. If we are making decisions for the people of our state we need to be able to communicate. Group therapy might be essential now and then.
I think we need to divide by counties people live in and not confuse the citizens.
I think we need new committees developed that allow feedback from the community served and affected by a committees decision.
Abraham Lincoln was one of the people for the people and called us back to prayer and unity. That's my goal prayer and "God First", then we have hope to unify for the people and the country we love the " United States of America ".
Not currently unless God calls me for more and the people agree.
Tia and Kenneth Duncan who are High School sweethearts have been fighting to survive since her husband was ran over at work. Kenneth tried to burn down his house with himself in it because he was unable to work and the lawyers nor Doctors got him the help he needed. Why?Is it because they had no money to afford treatment or a good lawyer? His wife has asked for help over and over as she has cared for and prayed for her husband . She has gotten physically sick herself due to the difficulties they face. They are middle class Georgians fallen through the cracks.If I get in office their will be a "Duncan Law" to protect and support families like theirs.
Why did the chicken cross the road? To get to the other side.
Yes in time of disasters this can be vital.
Yes I believe decisions must be made for the people and by the people. If you are a "people"compromise is part of coming to an agreement. But I don't believe in compromise on truth or integrity.
