General Survey

Issue Title	Candidate's Answers
1. Abortion is a woman's unrestricted right	Strongly Oppose Abortion is immoral and should be absolutely restricted, because it kills a human being. And abortion clinics are illegal.
2. Stricter punishment reduces crime	No Opinion This question is not counted in the answers for any candidate.
3. Marijuana is a gateway drug
4. Higher taxes on the wealthy	Strongly Oppose The income tax and the IRS should be both abolished. Lower and flatter taxes are the good first step.
5. Stimulus better than market-led recovery	Oppose Cutting taxes and reducing regulation is the means to recuperate from the Great Recession.
6. Vouchers for school choice	Strongly Support Government's role in schooling should be limited. State-funded vouchers should pay for private schools, charter schools, home-schooling, or whatever schools parents choose.
7. Make voter registration easier	No Opinion This question is not counted in the answers for any candidate.
8. Prioritize green energy	Strongly Oppose There's no global warming - it's just natural climatic variation. And if there is a problem, we won't be affacted much.
9. Avoid foreign entanglements
10. Expand the military	Strongly Support U.S. needs to keep expanding the military. Increase defense spending is also to meet global responsibilities.

12. Support American Exceptionalism
13. Absolute right to gun ownership	No Opinion This question is not counted in the answers for any candidate.

15. Pathway to citizenship for illegal aliens	No Opinion This question is not counted in the answers for any candidate.
16. EPA regulations are too restrictive	Strongly Support The earth is humankind's domain, and human needs should be placed first. EPA regulations are too restrictive and wrong.
17. Keep God in the public sphere	Strongly Support Belief in God is what America was founded upon, so religious organizations, or praying in school, does not violate the separation of church and state. Religious institutions should be involved in welfare or education.

19. Comfortable with same-sex marriage	No Opinion This question is not counted in the answers for any candidate.
