Political Philosophy for Bob Patrino

Candidate for
Council Member; City of San Ramon

I believe the cornerstone and only foundation for our society is a strong family. The concept of it taking a "village" to raise a family is to me, just a catchy phrase. While the "village" may help, if the family is weak then our society is weak. I will work to provide support for families, not to try to help them teach the core values that only the family can, but to give parents the tools to raise confident, successfull kids. These children will then grow to be the leaders of our tommorrow.

I don't believe the government should provide a person what he cannot or will not work to provide for himself. I believe less government is best, and will work to lessen or eliminate government intrusion into your life.
