Responsibilities of Leadership
- “This world is not always fair and equal. While our rights must always create equality amongst the citizenry by law, it is imperative that those in power seek to help those without a voice. Being stronger than someone/something does not mean you impose your will. Bullying only ensures that you will always have to excerpt power. Striking first radicalizes generations of people against your power. It ensures that you will always have enemies that seek harm to you. Fostering unity, both at home and abroad, is essential for the health and survival of our nation.”

Foreign Policy
- Our citizenry comes first. However, we live in a world economy where events around the globe have heavy implications for our citizenry. We must strengthen our bonds with our allies, promote messages of peace and unity, and always use violence as a last resort for the defense of the defenseless. Stability throughout the world means meaningful ties to world organizations, the promotion of fair trade, and trust in our system of governance. We must act as a trustworthy partner rooted in principles that are not impacted by party agenda. This trust is crucial domestically and abroad.

Duties of the People
- Reestablish trust in government institutions

Gun Control
- Law-abiding citizens that enjoy shooting shouldn’t be punished for the criminal actions of the few. However, we can do better to prevent tragedies by having an open dialogue. We can also accept some controls and procedures if that means we have less needless tragedies within our country. I believe this to be a commonsense issue that deserves care-driven discussion at every level. Understanding that we already have controls in place helps us open the discussion and determine what arms we should be able to bear in the modern world, which of our citizens have earned the right to carry them, and what we do to prevent the criminals from having them.

Religion
- Seperation of church and state
- Reestablish Religious Toleration

Pro LGBTQ+ Rights

Immigration
- Law-abiding immigration is another cornerstone of what makes this country great. Welcoming the business and labor of our immigrants and foreign tourists should bring hope. We are a land of opportunity, after all. Anyone deemed to be breaking our laws should be dealt with accordingly. However, this must be done on the basis of proof. Innocent until found guilty.
