Home County:
 
Mecklenburg

Length of Residence in NC:

27 years

Candidate Biography (submitted by campaign):

I am 44, and have lived in Mecklenburg County for 27 years, and in
Huntersville for three. I graduated from Independence High School in
Charlotte in 1982, and the University of North Carolina at Wilmington
in 1986. I have been employed by LSAA, Inc., for 15 years, and
currently work as a contract postal worker. I am single with no
children. I was also the Libertarian nominee for lieutenant-governor
in 2004.

Candidate Statement:

I am well-known for my passion for liberty and small government,
because I share the vision of the Founders of a society based on a
belief in the ability of every individual to choose and pursue what he
desires to fulfill his life. As the Declaration of Independence says,
"life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness" are fundamental rights
given us by our Creator, with no need for government permission.
Toward this end, I will seek to abolish the personal income tax, end
the war in Iraq (and pursue a non-interventionist foreign policy), and
oppose government rationing of healthcare.
