Expand all | Collapse all

I am a spiritual Businessman, who wants to balance liberty and order,
  • Community
  • Employment
  • Education
education,employment,housing.
I look up to people who make sacrifices to; better themselves, to improve life,to protect life and who give life. So that would be individuals ,the spiritual leaders , the first responders,the Teachers, the Fathers and Mothers,communities.
in all there is no one example to follow,but to lead by example and so that would be me I will be led by the pureness of examples, the fairness of examples, balance of examples
'the plan the plot the prophecy' Dr. E. Allen
I think strong intellectual understanding of the duties of the office, good heart, strong will,compassion would help in the characterics of an elected official good family values,balanced approach as a way to address issues would be strong principles to have to make decisions.
I have the experience and studies of life, I have the understanding, of the functions of the office I am and always have been a leader in making the best choice to protect,improve or enhance lives. the time now is like never before for me to be an officeholder.
To Represent the people.
I would like to leave a legacy of people coexisting with their choice of fate
These events have been placed in a book called "the plan, the plot, the prophecy" Dr. E. Allen
My very first job was at Jimmy Dean Meat packers in Plainview Texas I stayed there for 6 months I was 15 years old
the plan the plot the prophecy, I wrote it.
that is not for me
practice what you preach
I have been blessed to live a skillful and planned life not much is as much a struggle as it is a choice,the choice I make in different periods could be better
the question infuses the word "important" the most important, differences in the legislative is the application of the rules and order of law. This office must have order and authority it must follow the path of democracy if that is what we are about. It might have been anticipated I would use the talking points, Gun laws, abortion, immigration, climate control those are differences that must be address by law and order not public opinion.
I believe it to be not only beneficial, but crucial ,but if your experience has not been effective then where is the difference? if self interest,special interest, and no interest in a whole sector of communities has been your experience, is that beneficial for the office? Do we truly understand government and the justification of it? I think it could be shown that political experience has become the art of manipulating and denying the full strength of the office to the people.
Education, I think we will have to rethink our curriculums,and the path to the future I think when we say education we are just putting the young ones in mind ,but we have a whole sector of different people to work with, such as, life skills, working skills,helping with the disabled and elderly, education goes along way Housing, we are to work to improve housing status, home ownership,approach homelessness in an effective way Employment.putting people to work that never had jobs and to be effective will be a challenge these are the foundation to strengthen our State.
The ideal relationship between the Governor and the State Legislature would be to see eye to eye in the end result if not always the method.To make sure they are justifying their existence with the application of the office for the people.
I believe it to be always good to build good strong relationships and very beneficial to build one with other legislators to be able to work together against issues and not each other.
I am not currently,and yes I would see it as an honor and privilege to serve on a committee for the people.
I would be interested in seeing what the leadership could do for the people, such as ,Minority leader, speaker pro tem, Majority caucus chair
I would not say model,but I do respect the low key, less nonsense of former speaker of the House,
Newt Gingrich
I have a political strategy that may take me to the U.S. Congress, I am interested and planning.
I know the story of a young man who planned for college, did everything right was accepted into the college and could not meet room and board and had to change his whole dream
