Hi Joe,


I'm English but am currently living in America as part of my job so i wouldn't be allowed to actually vote in this future election.

Your past mistakes don't bother me. As has been mentioned there have been lots of elected people with worse things on their record

However, i would not voted for you based on what you've written. I tend to be quite liberal in my policies so without seeing more of your policies I would tend to avoid voting for you from the description of conservative republican. Plus i would find it very hard to vote for someone who is pro-life rather than pro-choice.
But here's some feedback based on if you'd written liberal/democrat and pro-choice instead (i probably still wouldn't have voted for you because of reasons below)
So far your policies are very general and seem to be very similar to those of all other politicians saying what we want to hear - "Less taxes and more and better public services". This is not realistic
The lack of education worries me slightly. I would have to hear a lot more about you and preferably see you in live debate before i would consider voting for you.

Hello Joe,

I don't care that you are a Conservative Republican ( I myself am an Independent ) but what I care about is do you agree with this current President's policy ( Just because you're Republican does'nt mean you have to) and the way this Country is headed?

I ask even though...............

From the things I see that you believe in I have no problem with that and I believe in the same ( especially the dislike for the war in Iraq).

The charges against you is no big deal especially after seeing what the Presdident has done the past eight years, compared to him you're a boyscout,lol.

I say go for it, but remeber you're a citizen of this Country first before you are a republican or a democrat, and the peoples interest should alway's come first and not these clubs we call political paties.

International Issues:
Energy & Oil: We should be investing in alternative energy to free ourselves from foreign dependence.
Foreign Policy: I support the war on terrorism, We should be pulling out of Iraq as soon as the goverment and military is stable. I would like our country to lead the way in improvements for the global enviorment. We should improve on human rights for all nations. Finally, improve relations in the far middle east.
Free Trade: I believe we should make it so that free trade favors our economy verses our neighbor's economy.
Homeland Security: DHS plays a vital role in todays "War on terrorism".
Immigration: I believe in open borders with strict regulations governing immigration. I don't believe in amnesty for illegal aliens.
War & Peace: I believe in a world of peace and diplomacy.


Domestic Issues:
Armed Forces: I support our troops! I support a well maintained, well trained, military. We should always give our troops what they need to accomplish their mission. I believe in pay raises and good healthcare for the military members and their families.
Civil Rights: I support the U.S. Constitution and "Bill of Rights". I condone same-sex marraige or civil unions.
Crime: I believe in more cops on the streets and harsher sentences for more serious crimes. I beleive petty criminals should be given reduced sentences for behavior & anger managemet improvement courses.
Drugs: We lost the "War on Drugs", We need a new strategy.
I will employ a new plan of action for taking down drug cartels.
Employment: I will stand behind implementing new goverment programs, and improving existing goverment programs to make college more affordable for our children.I will implement means to learn a new trade or skill for adults, assisted by goverment financing. I will bring new jobs to our economy. I will lower the over all commmercial tax from 35% to 20%. This will, along with other initiatives, will bring jobs back to the U.S.A.
Environmental: I believe in preserving our nation's landmarks, forest, and parks. I believe in tougher regulations for a cleaner environment.
Goverment: (Federal/State/Local) I support small goverment at all levels. I also believe the goverment should stay out of peoples lives and business.
Gun Control: I believe in and support the second ammendent!
Terrorism: I don't believe in the P.A.T.R.I.O.T. Act, but I believe in the war on terrorism.
Veterans: I support, and will sign into law, any legislation that will benefit our Hereo's.

Economic Issues:
Budget: I know at the current tax levels, we could pay for all these programs I propose, and still balance the budget. balancing the budget would be my main priority.
Economy: I'm concerned the economy is in turmoil, We would need to implement stronger regulations and increase goverment oversight. I don't support bailing out wall street or corporations.
Goverment Reform: We need to make the goverment accountable for it's own actions. The goverment must step up and assume responsibility for its role.
Infastructure: We need to make major improvements to our infrastructure.
Social Security: I believe in Social Security, I believe in a 25% pay raise for Social Security recipients, along with fair health coverage and FREE prescriptions.
Taxes & Tax Reform: Once we balance the budget, I would recommend tax rebates for college students. Tax reform would needed to be looked into.
Technology: I believe investing in technology for all areas, private or public funded.
Unemployment: I will create new jobs through lower business taxes.
Welfare & Poverty: I believe in welfare on a very limited basis. I would overhaul the program and make it harder to qualify.

Social Issues:
Abortion: I Believe its the womans right to choose.
Corporations: More oversight and stricter regulations on cooperations.
Education: I stand behind a good education. I support more qualified teachers for our schools. We would pay teachers more, but in-return we ask for better qualified teacher. I will make college more affordable.
Family & Children: I'm very family oriented, I support all family programs that aid in everyday family life.
Healthcare: I support healthcare insurance for those who have none.
Children would be automaticly covered by the goverment. Working adults would be insured by employer, and seniors would be covered by medicare/medicaid. If you are capable of working and agree not to, you will have NO health insurance.
Principles & Values: If you have a question in this department............please let me know.

How so? Just the interest alone on Bush's budget deficit will keep Americans broke for gernerations to come. It is estimated that the US has to incur a debt of $500 BILLION per year, just to ward off the interest on our loans.
