Campaign website

Baiko’s campaign website stated the following:

I care about our country and regard its Constitution as its greatest contribution to World Civilization. We must defend it, and we must hold our government to it. I'm well-suited to the task. I fight for our freedom of speech. I fight for our right to bear arms. I fight for our religious and health freedoms and parental rights. I believe our economy prospers to the extent it is unfettered by government regulation, so I fight for a free market. With the exception of taking care of those damaged in service to their country, I think government should leave welfare to charitable institutions and commit to warfare only when justly declared. I believe we should fortify our borders. My allegiance is to these United States and its citizens, not to foreign or corporate interests.


While I am passionate about such causes, my tipping point to run is the extended stubborn rejection to sensible drug policy in our state and federal legislatures, particularly concerning medical cannabis (marijuana). Recent polls in North Carolina indicate almost 80% of our population supports medical cannabis legalization, and yet our state legislature continually dooms each attempt to die. Our federal government holds a patent citing health benefits of one part of cannabis (CBD) and approved a synthetic version of another (THC) in 1985, yet still considers it as having no accepted medical use. The cause of cannabis enrolls progressives, conservatives, libertarians and green party activists alike because they know people are senselessly suffering and dying as a result of lack of access to medical cannabis. Can you think of a more unifying issue in these divisive times? [1]
