I am a proud 1st-generation Greek American. I want a country that will continue to allow my children and future generations the freedom and opportunities I had growing up. As a Christian, I believe that I have a special obligation, when elected, to restore the traditional values that made America great. I want our constitutional rights untouched, borders secured, hypocrisy stopped, and “Justice” served accordingly.
  • My goals will be, first and foremost, to listen to the voice of the people of Palm Beach County and make sure their voices are heard in Washington.
  • Defend the God-given rights Our Constitution declares. Change the tyrannical road that has been projected for us and right this ship to our previous glory and prominence in the world.
  • Return this country to the country God had created for us through our forefathers.
My passion is to protect and keep our constitution in place and make sure the power of "We The People" stays in tact and defeat the tyrannical government that is trying to take over. The people are the last line of defense according to our constitution and we have been activated. It is now time for us to stand up and be heard as well as take action. We must peacefully take over locally, statewide and federally seats and bring back the values this country was built on.
I think I am uniquely qualified to represent many people in a multifaceted way in the form of relatability. I am a first born son of legal immigrants, a former and current business owner, an employee of some good and not so good jobs since I was 14, I was divorced, a loving father of 3 beautiful multiracial children (Greek/Puerto Rican), I have been rich and completely broke and everything in-between, AARP qualified, and finally I can do whatever it takes to get the job at hand done.
The core responsibility that I most believe is that we are responsible to "The People" and we should be held accountable for our actions and inactions.
I want it to be know to my great grand children that when this country got a little off course, I had a small part and I stood with patriots to right its course and keep this country free.
My favorite book is the King James Bible. I think it is filled with guidance and knowledge that we can use today.
I do not believe they should. I believe that there are times when a new set of eyes can resolves issues not noticed before. I believe this is what our fore fathers wanted.
I do not believe two years is the right term length for representatives. I think that it should be three and limited to 2 terms. It is my understanding that after you win the seat you have a year to do some actual work, then the second year to mix work with a campaign. This is a distraction to completing the work you started the year before. Therefore, splitting time when you can be working towards completing the goals you set for getting in office.
Our fore fathers did not intend for these offices to be full time jobs. The intentions were to do your civil duty in developing our country and then go back to your private sector jobs. We have had too many people in place in office for too long and they have to go.
I really like Senator John Kennedy. He is able to speak in terms that a child can understand while at the same time making a major point that adults need to understand. I believe he is a great communicator.
