Questions & Answers

1. What can be done to ensure that California gets its fair share of federal resources?

Those who are elected to Federal Office must exert all the pressure they can in Washington to get California its fair share of Federal Resources. Unfortunately since Calif. voted Democratic a Republican President will not do much for California.

2. What are your foreign policy priorities for the United States?

It is imperative we balance the trade with China (Basic Law of Foreign Trade--it must be balanced or in a few years one Country will have all the Money) In a few years China will have all our money that Japan did not get (We never have balanced the trade w/Japan) Balancing trade w/China means they buy 100-200 Billion? more from us this will create 100's of thousands of jobs we have lost from buying so much from China.

3. What are your priorities for the federal budget?

50,000,000 Americans have no Hospitalization. We need an affordable Medical Care Plan for the Working Man.

Develop low cost Generic Drugs for Senior Citizens.
