Campaign themes

The following issues were listed on Brown's campaign website. For a full list of campaign themes, click here.

“	Right to Life: I am first and foremost pro-life. I believe that life begins at conception. If we don't value your right to be born, then there is no other right worth protecting. 1st Amendment: I believe in the Constitution. I believe it was God-inspired. All the freedoms and liberties included in the Bill of Rights are specified for a reason. They are God-given rights that no man can infringe upon. All speech should be protected, especially the speech you don't want to hear. You have a right to your opinion, and it should not be stifled. 2nd Amendment: The 2nd Amendment was written to ensure that we can protect ourselves from an overreaching, tyrannical government. It was also written to protect our other rights, life, liberty, and property. Secure the Border: I believe a secure border protects our citizens. As Americans, we encourage legal immigration. We welcome anyone who wants to come here to become an American and respects our laws. Foreign Policy: I believe that America was founded to be a beacon for the rest of the world. Our freedom is an inspiration to other nations that take notice and make the decision to follow our lead. The world is a more stable place when America is strong. We should not involve ourselves in foreign conflicts unless directly attacked.	”
