Lady and Gentlemen

  I've got a list below  and would like to know what your views on each. I realize I could go to each of your respective web-sites do the research  and maybe interpret your thoughts  but I'd like to weed through all that and get down to it.

 1) Immigration,securing our (the United States of America and Texas) borders against any ILLEGAL Immigrant

1.Immigration-- Texas Congressman Henry Cuellar is among our best leaders addressing this issue---work to improve security on US side of border but also work directly with Mexican authorities to improve conditions on Mexican side of border......Gov. Perry alienated all parties by using Texas resources for 'border security', ......our Texas candidates should lead the efforts in Washington , because Texas taxpayers cannot 'go it alone'

 2) Why is it we need more laws on the books when we haven't the manpower/resources to enforce existing ones?

2.  Because 'neo-conservatives' are not strong leaders, and they want others to do the job for them

 3) Political Correctness

3.  the term is obsolete because 'politically correct neo-conservatives' are now simply alienating voters.

 4) The United Nations and the possibility of the U.S. getting out of it

4. excellent question, U.S. taxpayers have become trapped in the middle ..... OPEC nations and billion dollar multi-national corporations  could be picking up many more U.N. expenses.........we could suggest locating U.N. some place other than New York 

 5) Firearms  and the Second Amendment

5. I belong to the Texas State Rifle Association and have their highest rating and I encourage everyone to protect his or her Second Amendment rights

 

 6) Taxes(specifically the Sixteenth Amendment of the US Constitution that states a tax on our wages is ILLEGAL but yet we pay them like sheep because the IRS says we have to)

6. I will work to relieve this tax burden on lower middle-class Americans whom I believe are hurt the most.

 7) The omnipresent  pay increases by our government=US citizen, tax dollars supplementing their lifestyles that is somehow "owed" to them and their families even after they leave office

7. question re: pay increases that Congress votes for itself and for those on Federal payroll....   I will work to reduce such benefits after office and/or reduce the excessive pay rates of those in office now

 8) The distancing/misunderstanding/misrepresenting of  the Government from the Constitution of the United States

8. your question re: the Government vs. the Constitution ....I attribute this to weak leadership...when President Bush calls the Constitution a "_________" piece of paper and he directs his administration to avoid and subvert our laws,.....I think you can see the hypocrisy

 

     I thank each of you for your answers  and wish you the best should you get voted in office
