- Pro-life

2. Other or expanded principles
- Bunny Wailer - Wanted Children "Wanted children crying from theBackbones of their fathersWanted children, longing for theBossom of their mothers For all good thing in life are freeLike liberty for you and for meAs the freedom of a raging stormLet the little children born And so Jah created manMale and female according to his plan To multiply and replenish the earthBy coming together and so give birthSo who are you to try them, price them and sell themWho are you to slave them and toKill them before them born?"

Budget

1. In order to balance the budget, do you support an income tax increase on any tax bracket?
- No

2. In order to balance the budget, do you support reducing defense spending?
- No

3. Other or expanded principles
- Leviticus 19:15 Ye shall do no unrighteousness in judgment: thou shalt not respect the person of the poor, nor honour the person of the mighty: but in righteousness shalt thou judge thy neighbour. Isaiah 2:4 And he shall judge among the nations, and shall rebuke many people: and they shall beat their swords into plowshares, and their spears into pruninghooks: nation shall not lift up sword against nation, neither shall they learn war any more. I support an increase in spending, but with a realignment of objectives, away from warfare and towards the future.

Campaign Finance

1. Do you support the regulation of indirect campaign contributions from corporations and unions?
- No

2. Other or expanded principles
- Matthew 6:2 Therefore when thou doest thine alms, do not sound a trumpet before thee, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets, that they may have glory of men. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward. "Downpressor manYou can't bribe no oneThem no want no moneyThem run'f moneyThat money get funny" "Say you don't need no diamond ringsAnd I'll be satisfiedTell me that you want the kind of thingsThat money just can't buyI don't care too much for moneyMoney can't buy me love"

Economy

1. Do you support federal spending as a means of promoting economic growth?
- Yes

2. Do you support lowering corporate taxes as a means of promoting economic growth?
- Yes

3. Other or expanded principles
- I support the concept that it the purpose and responsibility of government to facilitate success for the people and their shared endeavors, that we should always seek to lower taxes, and that an ideal system would not rely on taxation at all. Chieftains: "Here's A Health To The Company" "So here's a health to the company and one to my lassLet's drink and be merry all out of one glassLet's drink and be merry, all grief to refrainFor we may or might never all meet here again"

Education

1. Do you support requiring states to adopt federal education standards?
- No

2. Other or expanded principles
- Sorry, this question is too vague. It requires a context. It depends on which standards and specific concepts you would be referring to. Both the states and the federal government have an obligation to respect each other's perspectives, analyze them for validity and service to those being educated, and negotiate appropriately.

Energy & Environment

1. Do you support government funding for the development of renewable energy (e.g. solar, wind, thermal)?
- Yes

2. Do you support the federal regulation of greenhouse gas emissions?
- Yes

3. Other or expanded principles
- The central pillar of my entire campaign is based on my scientific studies, and my belief that I have unique and extremely valuable information to pass on to the world about these very issues. I announced in 2016, while campaigning for Mayor of Honolulu, that I would be seeking a minimum of one trillion dollars from the federal government, to fund the pilot program of my "Earth Emergency Life Support Project" here on Oahu, a project which I assure you, vastly surpasses any renewable energy initiative you've ever heard of.

Guns

1. Do you generally support gun-control legislation?
- No

2. Other or expanded principles
- "A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed."

Health Care

1. Do you support repealing the 2010 Affordable Care Act ("Obamacare")?
- No

2. Other or expanded principles
- I support a review of the 2010 Affordable Care Act. Perhaps we can do better.

Immigration

1. Do you support the construction of a wall along the Mexican border?
- No

2. Do you support requiring immigrants who are unlawfully present to return to their country of origin before they are eligible for citizenship?
- No

3. Other or expanded principles
- I support the dream of world citizenship and the dissolution of national borders, as espoused by Haile Selassie, Charlie Chaplin, and so many others.

Marijuana

- Yes

2. Other or expanded principles
- Peter Tosh - Buk-In-Hamm Palace "Music and herb is the healing of the nationSent from Jah, who we praise. This is a true emancipationCome to set the people free, yeah, mhm hmDon't you let Disco get you downGive a listenin' to Reggae soundCome on, come on [Chorus]Light your spliffLight your chaliceWe ago smoke it in Buckingham PalaceLend me a paperLend me a fireMake we chase 'way vampire Put on your vest, yesAnd call the press, yesWe gonna smoke it in the House of Congress"

National Security

1. Should the United States use military force in order to prevent governments hostile to the U.S. from possessing a nuclear weapon?
- No

2. Do you support increased American intervention in Middle Eastern conflicts beyond air support?
- Yes

3. Other or expanded principles
- The United States should rely instead on due process of law and the rule of international morality, diplomacy, and genuine goodwill, and should lead by example in preventing the development of weapons of mass destruction, as well as in the initiation and perpetuation of hostilities. I support the cessation of all aerial bombardment campaigns, in favor of land-based humanitarian relief efforts.

Administrative Priorities

Please explain in a total of 100 words or less, your top two or three priorities if elected. If they require additional funding for implementation, please explain how you would obtain this funding.
- My primary purpose is to explain to the Navy, the Army Corps of Engineers, NASA, and the global scientific community, and to all of my struggling brothers and sisters throughout the world, the importance of certain overlooked concepts and technologies, which I feel are capable of delivering us from climate collapse and our predicted doom. I also seek to implement an Economic Resuscitation Package which will result in a massive increase in market activity and growth, while providing sovereign conditions and opportunities, as well as diversification and expansion of current operations. Believe in world peace. God bless you all.
