I'm running for United States Congress because I believe government should be as our nations founders wished; an instrument of the people, by the people and for the people. Overall it should provide an environment that encourages both peace and prosperity for all citizens.

This country needs new leaders, leaders with vision and understanding that can restore our status as a great nation, a nation known for peace and prosperity rather than one that fuels the fires of terrorism.  Congress continues to make significant cuts in domestic programs while continuing to raise the national deficit in order to fund the Iraq War and that country's reconstruction.
