Collapse all
|I have led a very interesting, most would say fascinating, life - which for the last year I have been compelled to write as an autobiographical novel under the working title of "Love Divergent"
It is a story of early tragedy, life changing visions , romance, heartache, sinning to such extreme excess that my soul grew sick of sin, having my view of life changed by God in an instant, and a life of full of miracles from then on. All this is set in a story of two people who loved each other, and then split up to go completely different directions in life.
I have been married for 36 years to a beautiful, highly intelligent and virtuous wife who is entirely content in our love for each other, and we have raised four exceptional children who each make the world a better place for living in it.
Twenty five years ago I had another religious conversion to the founding principles of our country and the original Intent and vision of the Constitution, and have been actively involved in restoring our nation since- Restore Election Integrity - the most immediate concern since the 2020 election was:
First "Rigged" by immoral and often illegal collusion between the Democrat captured media, High tech interference, six exceptionally corrupt democrat controlled counties in swing states, the deep state bureaucracy, evil NGO's, all coordinated through the DNC.
The "Hacked" by deliberately vulnerable voting machines first developed and deployed in Venezuela to permanently steal elections for their communist party.
Then finally "Stolen" by shutting down the ballot counting process on election night ,and adding enough absentee ballots with untraceable signatures to overcome Trumps historic lead. - Restore the constitution so it functions as originally intended. See: HealingTheConstitution.org Seven Steps To Structurally Restore The Constitution Of The United States
- Personal integrity - I will serve for just one six-year term and not have a campaign reelection fund to avoid corruptive influences.
Restoring the Constitution so it functions as originally intended
Before that moment I was trying to figure out by myself what to do in life,. After that moment ,I have sought to discover God's will as to what I should do with my life, since I knew that he knew better than me, what will be good for me.
Watch and listen to Dennis Prager and PragerU videos. Become a member of the Daily Wire, and and at least listen to Matt Walsh, and Michael Knawels every day. Newsmax, Blaze TV, real America's voice, Stossel TV, Fox News (though remember the anchors know they will get fired if they talk about election integrity)
If you don't have a relationship with the God of Israel yet, humble yourself in prayer and ask him to get involved with your life.
Prayerfully read the bible. especially the four gospels of Mathew, Mark, Luke an John, so you can experience the life of Christ.
If you want to know my religious beliefs, Read "Jesus The Christ" by James Talmage.
I am not tempted by riches or power, but am personally content and grateful as the Lord provides me sufficient for my needs.
Remembering that the proper role of government is limited to protecting the life, liberty, and property of it's citizens.
I went from only being allowed to sweep manure my first week, to being made top wrangler and barn Foreman in two months, to acting General Manager my last weeks. At the end of the summer I tuned down a $45,000 year job offer from the owner to stay on as general manager to continue high school as a Junior.
I mostly listen to Classical, and whistle the melodies that stick in my head. Lately I've been making a long playlist of preferred Waltzes. JS Bach is the best, but my soul is drawn to the French romantics.
I also like classic rock and roll and had the largest album collection in college Lately I discovered the fantastic array of really good songs by Aimee Mann.
Ignorance, illiteracy, and indoctrination to Marxist theory of America's Youth and adult citizens.
The individual states should also have a senate made up of one senator per county regardless of population or size. The Reynolds VS Simms decision of 1963 which ignored the Article 4 of the U.S. Constitution "The United States shall guarantee to every State in this Union a Republican Form of Government" was misguided, and should be overruled by congress.
Balance the budget.
Audit the Federal Reserve. - which is neither under federal control, nor does it keep our money in reserve.
Return to a gold standard.
Charge the Chinese Communist Party for the damage they did to our country by intentionally alloying international flights out of Wuhan, when all domestic transportation out of Wuhan was entire shut down as Covid-19 was spreading across China.
