Biographical Highlights
  • Occupation: Retired Aerospace Engineer
  • I am 75 years old, and conservative by nature.
  • I earned degrees from Illinois State Normal University and Iowa State College.
  • After graduation, I worked about 35 years for General Dynamics.
  • I admire Harry Truman, John Kennedy, Ronald Reagan, Margaret Thatcher, S. I. Hayakawa and Duncan Hunter.
  • I did not submit a candidate's statement for your voters guide. It is only 400 words and cost more than 1,000 dollars.
  • The candidate's statement once was a good idea, to help candidates. But, translations? An idea now abused by PC good intentions.
Top Priorities if Elected
  • After the City council debacle, It is reasonable to question the pension funding at city college.
  • After the rash of shootings at schools and colleges, should our colleges continue as gun free zones?
  • Student fees, The State over spending budget deficit should not be solved with higher student fees.
Key Endorsements
  • I am not endorsed, by labor, by teachers, by nurses, by police, by anyone.
  • I endorse Jan Goldsmith. He is an experienced public servant.
  • The right of private property is a basic freedom. Yes on Prop 98; no on 99.
Position Papers
