Favorite President and Why:
Ronald Reagan
Reason for Seeking Public Office:
Sen. Jack Reed would have run unopposed if I had not stepped up to the plate. I respect and admire Sen. Reed. However, there are several key issues on which we ( to put it mildly ) do not agree. Some of these issues are, domestic energy exploration, immigration, taxes and the issue of life. I look forward to a lively, spirited and respectful discussion of these issues with Sen. Reed in the upcoming campaign.
