Questions & Answers

1. The American occupation in Iraq continues to be enormously costly in dollars and in lives. What is your position on how our government should proceed?

I support immediate controlled withdrawal.

2. What is your impression of the roll-out of the Medicare Prescription Drug program so far, and what changes would you propose to make it better?

It is a great deal for the drug companies. We should have a hard look at why drug prices are so high.

3. Where do you stand on the current balance between security and civil rights?

We have strayed far from the Constitution. Government has grown well beyond the limits imposed by the Constitution.
