I’m old school and typically swing more conservative, however the political climate has changed drastically over the last couple decades. I vote based on belief of action versus talk. I have a nationalistic mindset in that America and what got us to such a prosperous state is #1 and what is good for the majority is #2. We can’t sqeaky wheel legislate and make policy that addresses every single issue in every subgroup. I certainly do not support giving up freedoms at any cost. We all should know at this point once it is eroded, there is no getting it back.

My sticky points in politics over the last decade are government growth and intrusion. Government should not be getting bigger, more powerful and exponentially more expensive. Refine what works and eliminate what doesn’t. Stop the pet projects!!

I have no hardcore allegiance to any one party and would/will vote for the candidate that best aligns in benefiting America as a whole and one I truly believe can backup what they preach.
