I would like to know what issues are important to you and why.

My position on issues is essentially in agreement with Green Party Values, the Ohio Natural Law Party, and the Independence Party of Minnesota. The 1999 Reform Party that elected Jack Gargan as Chairman, before the 2000 breakup, had an excellent platform addressing the basic electoral reforms needed.

See Issues: The Non-Partisan Way for my perspectives on important issues. The link is at the bottom of every page on these web pages. Issues and public policy are what governing is all about. Do the "major party" candidates identify with your issues and interests? Or do they only identify with the interests of their parties? Are they unduly influenced by political campaign contributions from special interests? It seems to me that our two-party system is extremely corrupted by money. It seems to me that the overriding public policy solution to our problems is getting money out of politics so everyone has an equal voice in our political system. An unexpected consequence will be a resurgence in small business creation and incentives for bottom-up entrepreneurial free enterprise to grow our economy within our borders. A strong economy will increase the number of available solutions to our problems.

Please check to see if we actually agree on something that appears to be an area of disagreement. We have the opportunity to change our country for the better, outside of the bipartisan two-party monopoly. One or two issues must not be allowed to separate us if we substantially agree on basic public policy.
