Who are you? Tell us about yourself.

No other candidate has the experience in healthcare like myself. I have worked diligently to advocate for thousands of patients in my career. We definitely need more like myself to fight alongside Senator Dr. Rand Paul against one of the biggest crimes against humanity initiated on American soil. More people have been murdered by this act than the total of all wars since Vietnam. Governmental officials, Congress and the media need to be held accountable and you best believe I will do it. I have watched the abuse of Big Pharma, Big government, and insurance in my career and have been disgusted to no end. People need relief from rules and regulations so they can make their own decisions about their health with their physician. Give the power back to the people and strip power from insurance companies and strengthen autonomy once again for physicians. When 2020 scamdemic took place, I knew we were in trouble and now more people are suffering as a result. I'm not ok with that. I do not believe Biden won 2020. I believe every single state turned red and we need to clean house from the criminal activity that has taken place in our country. . IDENTIFICATION IS A MUST TO VOTE. ANYONE WHO BELIEVES DIFFERENT HAS UNETHICAL MOTIVES. PERIOD. As much as I dream of fighting for the people at this level, to keep more rich men and politicians from going to Washington I'm pushing as many votes to Brooke McGowan. We have a chance to turn this around.

Please list below 3 key messages of your campaign. What are the main points you want voters to remember about your goals for your time in office?

Hold governmental officials, media, and Congress accountable for their part in the crimes against humanity.
I will fight to repeal the Federal Reseve Act of 1913 and fight against federal taxation. I will work to prove the illegitimacy of the Federal Reserves and demand the IRS to pay the people back every dime they stole from us. The American people need relief.
Immigrants have no right crossing the borders. I believe Biden should be arrested for treason allowing cartel and murderers into our country. Shut the border and go through the door. We have policies in place for citizenship. One candidate wants to fast track and equates those who understand that our economy can not sustain this to Nazis, per the interview he had with a news channel.

What areas of public policy are you personally passionate about?

Ban federal taxation, repeal the obscenity exemptions that allow schools to have pornographic material thus automatically reducing unexpected pregnacies lowering murdering innocent baby rates, repeal 2012 Smith Mundt Act that allows media to lie to the American people and repeal Obamacare that has ruined the quality of our healthcare Susan.

Is there a book, essay, film, or something else you would recommend to someone who wants to understand your political philosophy?

The greatest Book ever written. God's Word..

What characteristics or principles are most important for an elected official?

Ethics, compassion, integrity and honor.

What qualities do you possess that you believe would make you a successful officeholder?

I am an advocate and fighter for many and I do not give up or in until I have positive outcomes.

What do you believe are the core responsibilities for someone elected to this office?

I believe we need less government, less laws..Let's focus on repealing mumbo jumbo idiocracies and get back to the simplicity of the Constitution. Fight for the rights of the American people.

To serve the Lord and walk humbly with our God, while showing His love for mankind.

McDonalds at 14 years of age. 1 to 2 years

The Bible is my roadmap to success. It's filled with victories and wisdom.

A lot of tragic loss and trauma especially in the broken healthcare system.

What qualities does the U.S. House of Representatives possess that makes it unique as an institution?

Create and write legislature and manage war.

Do you believe that it's beneficial for representatives to have previous experience in government or politics?

Yes, but the founding fathers never intended rich people to run our country.

What do you perceive to be the United States’ greatest challenges as a nation over the next decade?

Even worse healthcare, crime due to the border situation, bankruptcy because of poor management of our resources.

Do you believe that two years is the right term length for representatives?

Yes but 4 would not be detrimental.

What are your thoughts on term limits?

We have to get them enacted, IMMEDIATELY.

Is there a particular representative, past or present, whom you want to model yourself after?

In 2022 Jim Jordan really stood out to me. I have appreciated Senator Rand Paul for his stance against the fraud, Fauci.

Do you believe that compromise is necessary or desirable for policymaking?

It's never desirable to compromise. We should not budge on anything that can hurt the people, however I understand the cruelties behind politics as it relates to corruption.

How should the U.S. House use its investigative powers?

Investigate the crimes against humanity. Investigate the FBI, CDC, CIA, DOE and every other 3 letter agency and the part they played in the 2020 crime games. Investigate the January 6th fraudulent activity and let the prisoners go. Investigate Ukraine, the Biden family and the 2020 election.

What organizations or individuals have endorsed your campaign?

I actually have passed the majority of those who have reached out to me to Brooke McGowan..We can not create change by doing the same thing over and over. We just can't keep voting for politicians and rich men who can't relate to those suffering everyday. Vote Brooke McGowan another tried and tested Patriot.

What are your views on financial transparency and government accountability?

We must be transparent and held accountable..

Who are you? Tell us about yourself.

I am a write-in candidate option for NC District 10. I am a Patriot who decided to put boots on the ground last year, fighting for our rights. I relate to the ordinary person with everyday struggles. I believe Americans need to stand up before every Constitutional right is stripped from us. I have advocated for many individuals and have been a victim of the broken healthcare system more times than anyone should be, as well as car insurance corruption. My family has been hit five times with severe injuries , and 4 totaled vehicles. We need people fighting in Washington for "We The People," not just for the one-percenters. God, Family, and Country.

Please list below 3 key messages of your campaign. What are the main points you want voters to remember about your goals for your time in office?

Challenge the section of HR Bill 4310 that allows media to lie to the American people and hold the media accountable.
Healthcare is broken and needs an overhaul. There has been a major decline in quality of care since the passing of the Affordable Care Act.
Challenge the Federal Reserve Act of 1913. Biden taxation is robbing the people.

What areas of public policy are you personally passionate about?

My passion is better healthcare for people. I have had many experiences where I've had to play doctor. MRIs have been misread, the wrong diagnoses given, flippant physician attitudes have all affected my daughter, who was born with some challenging issues.

I question any governing body that would allow one person to dictate the direction of a pandemic, while dumbing down thousands of experts in our land. My goal is to seek truth and ensure people are not lied to about critical issues that could affect their lives or families.

I would like to see physicians be able to practice with autonomy without insurance companies denying their medical knowledge of why a patient needs specific testing and/or treatment. Insurance companies have way too much power.

Federal Government's grip needs to be removed from the education system. Education needs to be handled at the state level with heavy parent involvement. The current agenda is to groom our children and dumb them down.

Taxation under the Biden administration should be criminal. Why do we continue to vote for people who only care about themselves? We can not continue on this trajectory. They are trying to break us. It should be illegal to take money from Big Pharma, Big Tech, gas companies, Big banks, etc., especially when the American people are struggling.

I will fight hard to give the church its voice back by challenging the Johnson Amendment of 1954. This move weakened the church.

Who do you look up to? Whose example would you like to follow, and why?

I look up to the physicians, Pastors, and everyday people who knew a plan was put in place to harm our nation in 2020.Those who stood in the face of adversity and those who continue to fight for truth.

What characteristics or principles are most important for an elected official?

Morals, ethics, and being able to recognize error and correct this things speedily, along with humility, are essential principles for an elected official.

What qualities do you possess that you believe would make you a successful officeholder?

I am dependable, a team player but will speak up if something is not right. Character is important to me and I strive to please God with my actions.

What do you believe are the core responsibilities for someone elected to this office?

Being present, ability to read and understand bills that are presented, advocacy, and the ability to communicate are key responsibilities of a Representative.

What legacy would you like to leave?

Perseverance, kindness, passion and to impact healthcare, education and our freedoms.

What is the first historical event that happened in your lifetime that you remember? How old were you at the time?

January 28, 1986

Challenger disaster, explosion of the U.S. space shuttle orbiter Challenger, shortly after its launch from Cape Canaveral, Florida, on January 28, 1986, which claimed the lives of seven astronauts

I was 14 years old

What was the last song that got stuck in your head?

"There is nothing You can not do"

What qualities does the U.S. House of Representatives possess that makes it unique as an institution?

"Congress enacts laws that influence the daily lives of all Americans and is intended to serve as the voice of the people. Its responsibilities include funding government functions and programs, holding hearings to inform the legislative process, and oversight of the executive branch."

https://www.visitthecapitol.gov/about-congress#:~:text=Congress%20enacts%20laws%20that%20influence,oversight%20of%20the%20executive%20branch.

Do you believe that it's beneficial for representatives to have previous experience in government or politics?

In this hour, I do not believe it's necessary to have experience in government or politics. It is not a requirement, and I think career politicians are not working to benefit their constituents but to find ways to pad their own pockets. I'd instead vote for someone who has passion and love and fights for what is ethical and proper.

I am endorsed by the NC Grassroots Government.

What do you perceive to be the United States’ greatest challenges as a nation over the next decade?

Indoctrination of children, heavy taxation, poor quality health care, and our freedoms being completely stripped away are just a few of the greatest challenges we will face in the United States over the next decade.

Do you believe that two years is the right term length for representatives?

Yes, two to Four

What are your thoughts on term limits?

Term limits are necessary. Career politicians are bought out and no longer care about the people.

Is there a particular representative, past or present, whom you want to model yourself after?

I have grown to admire Jim Jordan over the past two years. He has shown courage and strength while fighting for our rights.

Do you believe that compromise is necessary or desirable for policymaking?

Compromising values and morals should never be considered in policymaking. Some issues can afford compromise as long as lives are not negatively affected.
