| Collapse all
I am Chairman of the Harmony Foundation-Mission statement is "stand up to bullying and stand for human equality." Established 1st mandated anti-bullying program in the major city of Elizabeth NJ. I hold ten world records, with my latest being bare knuckle pushups in thirty seconds as a tribute to end anti-semitism and veteran homelessness. I am a proud Air Force Veteran. In the past, during my time in the Air Force, I was a building manager, a dietician supervisor, and an Air Force entertainer that traveled the US. As a martial arts break dance entertainer, I performed on the Apollo Theater stage 4 times and was the choreographer of 72 episodes of MTV.
I am a proud father and dedicated husband of 3 children.- Reform public education to fit the needs of our children.
- Meaningful health care reform that includes TORT Reform.
- Realistic economic policies that establish budgetary practices that don't mortgage our nation's future away.
I believe we need to have fair justice reforms. This includes having every police officer have a body camera and vehicle camera at all times. This protects police and citizens at the same time. We need to reform health care-we can start with covering more preventative and natural remedies as well as capping lawsuits with TORT Reforms. Also, my education reforms (with improving meals and increasing physical activity) work hand-in-hand in bringing down longer-term care issues we commonly see today.
