Candidate for
County Supervisor; Sonoma County; Supervisorial District 1

Public policies and decisions should be based on facts, the rule of law and common sense. Everything government does should pass two tests: Is there a public purpose to this? Does this respect and uphold individual rights?

The defining characteristic of political leadership should be integrity. The essense of leadership of any kind is placing service above self.

Having served in elective office before, I understand clearly that it is not a popularity contest, and that serving the common good will often require upsetting the few for the benefit of the many.

My abiding political philosophy is that the American system of government exists to protect the rights of individuals, and my personal goal is to see a dollar of value delivered for every tax dollar collected.
