Campaign themes
2016
Dail issued the following statement regarding his bid for office:
| “ | I am a strict constructionist. I believe in the rule of law. John Stuart Mill, John Locke, Adam Smith, Milton Friedman and Ronald Reagan have been the most influential in the forming of my political philosophy. I believe President Obama and to a much less but still significant degree President George W. Bush have damaged our Republic and the concept of Constitutional governance, perhaps irretrievably.You may recall Obama's "fundamental change"? My purpose for running is to help reverse and (I hope) repair the damage. | ” |
