1- Governor Otter says, “we have 3 ‘equal’ branches of government.” This is wrong. The legislative branch is superior to the other branches according to the Idaho Constitution. Governor Otter uses his office to force his agenda on the legislature. If you do not believe what I say, ask your State Rep. or Senator.
2- I would veto all bills that are unconstitutional and the legislature would have to override with a 2/3rds vote. Even if 100% of the legislature voted for the bill, I would still veto, so I could teach constitutional fidelity in my veto statement.
3- I would promote gold and silver coin as the only legal currency. Federal Reserve Notes are counterfeit according to the US Constitution.
4- I would form a commission to study convicts in Idaho custody, so as to reduce costs to taxpayers. For example, an illegal alien in Idaho prison, or on parole, for theft could be sent to his home country. I would never commute a sentence if the convict was dangerous to the life, health, property, or morals of others.
5- I would promote legislation to reduce spending on all education, health and welfare, and recreational programs, leading to the elimination of these programs. Idaho would become the nation’s most prosperous state if we had the least government.
6- I would never pay for alcohol from my personal or state funds.
7- I would not travel out of state, to promote Idaho, using state funds.
8- I would not accept free entry to events.
9- I would promote healthier food for state dependents and prisoners.
10- Idaho gov’t institutions need to grow more of their own food. Sorry vendors.
11- Idaho is losing sales and businesses to Oregon (no sales tax), Washington (no sales tax on food), Montana (no sales tax), Wyoming (less sales tax). We need tax free zones along our borders. If we reduce the size and scope of government we could eliminate sales tax and other taxes.
12- I would try to stop Idaho National Guard personnel from going to undeclared and unjust wars. Could a governor prevail over the US President regarding an illegal war?
13- I would support a “trigger law” for Idaho, in the event, the federal government suspends any of The Bill of Rights or Constitutional rights. Federal suspension of rights, or declaration of martial law, would trigger a law ordering all Idahoans to resist federal confiscation of fireams, restrictions on right to assemble, and right of free speach, etc. This trigger law would also cause the State Legislature to immediately convene.
14- I would attend at least 2 church services each week, never at the same church. I am a devout Christian. I do not have a church. My motive would be to create moral activism in the churches. The churches are not taking responsibility for community morals like they should.
15- I would be, at times, in the streets myself, in front of homeless shelters, porn shops, gay parades, bars, Planned Murderhood, etc. trying to help those who are confused and in need. I would do this in a loving manner just as I do now.
16- I would give to the needy a good portion of my salary. Government charity never solves problems, it only increases them. Look at our Indian reservations to see long term govt aid. Social functions are the not the proper role of govt. If education and social functions are ‘not’ done in love via free-will, we get today’s selfish, hedonistic American culture.
17- I would not accept any stimulus money. The Legislature would have to override me on this. This stimulus money is created by theft and it is unconstitutional.
18- I would promote jury decisions through a fully educated jury as best form of justice.
19- I believe that states can nullify unconstitutional federal laws. I also believe that a state can secede from the Union.
20- I am against the government licensing of professions and occupations. This is not a proper role of govt. Licensing creates monopolies and shortages of professionals in some cases. Regulation of professions should be a business function which would create competiton and innovation between competing groups.
