Answer 1: I will not support military spending unless it is in the direct defense of the United States. I will vote to end foreign wars, close overseas bases, bring our soldiers home and transfer the defense of other countries like Germany and Japan to their own armed forces. I will vote to end meddling in other countries internal affairs. I will work to quickly phase out un-constitutional programs that destroy families, destroy incentive and wreck havoc on our economy. Getting rid of compulsory unemployment laws and federal unemployment insurance will increase job opportunities and get more people back to work.
Answer 2: The most important issue in this race is the fact that our government is totally out of control and the current congress with the exception of Ron Paul and a few others refuse to follow the Constitution. Huge deficits, entitlements, and uncontrolled federal spending must end. The Federal Reserve must be replaced with sound gold backed money. The drug war must end. Drugs should be available at the drug store with a physicians prescription. Many federal departments should be eliminated beginning with the Department of Education, Energy and Housing and Urban Destruction. All unconstitutional departments eliminated.
