I will aim to be known as a friend of the constitution.
May God bless you, your family, and the State of Idaho,- If you want a limited government, then you will want someone like me to represent you and our shared values at the statehouse; but if you think an unlimited government is what you want then any of the others will do.
- If you value life from fertilization to natural death, without exception, choose me; but if you have no regard for your preborn neighbor then any of the others will do.
- If you want to make the decisions regarding your children's education and what is best for them, then elect me; but if you want the government to decide this for you, any of the others will do.
