Here is a little biography behind the name:
About me:
Born in California, raised in Utah, Hawaii, and American
Samoa. I have lived in Utah Valley since 1983 (25yrs) . My
mother is from Utah, California and my Dad a native from the Polonisian
Islands also a citizen after serving in the Korean War.
Work History:
As a youth I grew up on a little farm in American Samoa clearing the
land, plowing, planting, then selling that produce in an open market.
Once back in Utah, I worked in construction which then lead to 15
years in the technology field (computers, networks, etc) which I
enjoy. I have worked for UVSC, WordPerfect, Steven Covey
Leadership, now FranklinCovey, and Novell.
Education:
I have a Bachelors in Information Systems and an MBA from the
University of Phoenix which I completed while enjoying 4 busy children
at home. Being in the technology field has helped me become a quick
learner and now life long student of the constitution, the law,
government, what it IS and was not intended to be.
Offices held?
I have never run for office before nor did I seek out this position.
The decision to run was my response to a request for help from
the Constitution Party to join their movement and help restore the
original intent of the founding fathers, take back our rights and
restore the checks and ballances that threaten our government today.
Over the last few years I have become aware of our awful
situation and very concerned over the direction of our country to
a new form of government, and while Utah has not slipped as far as
other States toward decaying socialism, we need to be vigilant in
guarding what we do have and roll back the clock.
Civic Involvement?
Although I have not held previous positions in government, I am
no stranger to service where I have served in various scout &
church positions throughout most of my life, and donating community
service hours when needed
Top Issues to me: Eroding of the Constitution and Bill of rights.
Threats
include socialism, world government (especially when most of those
officials making laws, like in the UN are NOT elected), Private Bankers
controlling our monetary system (Federal Reserve inc.), Legal
Plundering of some officials, and fancy sounding titles like the
“Living Constitution” which only means death to the
constitution and original intent of our forfathers.
Today's
political battles seem to force us to focus EITHER to
the left or the right, democrates or republicains, liberal or
conservative yet the founding fathers concern had nothing to do with
that. Their concern, as ours should be, is the threat to freedom
because of either very little or no government control and too much
control. Either one of those extreems would end our freedoms.
Today's majority parties advocate too much control. We
need to find ballance as the founding fathers sought for, NOT left or right,
but MORE or LESS. The extreems of liberal and conservativism is
comunism and tyrany, both in the "too much" category we are becomming.
It is my intent to resist attempts to erode our
liberty through compromised legislation (laws) and help legislation
become more transparent (let you see what we are doing and why).
TOP Issues specific to Utah (many of which are fruits of the problems listed above):
ISSUE 1:
The Economy and how it is directly effected by our foreign policies,
the raging costs of War and military installation that are bankrupting
us and our own taxes and Government spending. Hear in Utah we
need leaders who will protect the sovereignty (the right to solve our
own problems) of the United States of America, but especially that of
Utah, because who better to solve our own problems than we who live in
them, not someone in another state (Washington DC),or heaven forbid,
someone in a foreign country (the UN) who has no idea of our needs, or
cares.
ISSUE 2:
Illegal, but more accurately, “unwise immigration Policy”
effects us a great deal and touches many other issues like our
education system, healthcare, transportation, and economy.
Helping others is what many in Utah want to do, but we can't help if we
ruin ourselves by encouraging illegals to come uncontrollably.
We'll be overwhelmed and in the end have nothing good to offer.
ISSUE 3:
Resources like our water supply which if left unchecked will become a
major problem in the near future. This is also related to our
rising population growth and common believe/ behavior that we don't
live in a desert, especially city property. We do, and we must
find ways to conserve and improve its quality now.
Why vote for me?
I am a republican, conservative at heart, but not the new evolving
republican we see today. I believe many other
republicans feel the same way. If
voted in, I will represent you in the House using the constitution, and
the original intent of the founding fathers as my guide. I
believe a public servant should do just that... serve the people, then
once the term is up, let someone fresh bare the task and run with the
torch of freedom. If you want to understand some of my beliefs,
refer to the Constitution Party's platform. I also agree with many of republican congressman Ron Paul's values and beliefs,
which when studied are NOT his but the echos of our founding fathers
who’s voices of warning are largely being ignored.
Influences in my decisions:
Farm work ethic
Strong family ethic
Technological background
Religious Roots in Christianity
The Constitution and how and why it came to be, and why it must be preserved.
The believe that ALL men and women are made equal and have inalienable
rights that can’t be taken away. (Please look it up so you know
when they take it away... “Hey, that was mine”)
A strong believe in a small limited Federal Government, stronger State
Government and freedom to the people to use their property as long as
it doesn’t take others freedoms away.
Some of my favorite books include:
“The Law” , by Frederic Bastiat
“The Making of America: The Substance and Meaning of the Constitution ” by W. C Skousen
The Holy Bible, The Book of Mormon, and other inspiring works
Concepts to think about:
Socialism (good or bad)
Would we survive with less government? What is the balance?
Why
is solvereignty important for us to solve most of our problems close to
home instead of having a world body of unelected leaders solve those
problems for us?
Important Terms to Understand:
Sovereignty - The right to fix our own problems and make our own decisions.
Legal Plunder - Basically taking from you and giving to your neighbor while skimming off the top legally
"League of Democracies" - legislation without our representation. More of the same things like the United Nations but on steroids.
