In 1776, John Adams wrote Thoughts on Government, where he insisted that the new constitution should create a "balanced government" whose structure would reflect the division of society between the wealthy (represented by the upper house) and ordinary men (who would control the lower house) and a powerful executive and judiciary would ensure that neither class infringed on the liberty of the other.   

We must get back to this "balanced government" where a person doesn't have to be rich or politically connected with extensive campaign contributions to be elected to the House of Representatives. 

At the 2012 Democrat National Convention, our former President Bill Clinton explained everything and I completely agree with everything he said.   Bill Clinton is the most kind, unselfish, unperfectly perfect, brilliant man of our time. 

Please watch this video and more importantly share with the many citizens who are simply misguided and don't understand.

This website cost me a grand total of $49 per month! I manage it myself.  If there are any typos, please forgive me and let me know.  Thank you.  Yes, I can and will do more with less - efficiency and minimal waste - that's how I live my life and how I will legislate. My entire low budget effective campaign is a statement of how I will operate when you elect me to Congress.  Being able to do more with less ..... Isn't that something we need in government these days? And, I don't mean people working harder and getting paid less.    I mean working smarter.

I got 13% of the vote in 2012 Democrat Primary and learned a lot.  Some experts say that was amazing for a first time candidate on a low budget. My sincerest thanks to everyone who supported and voted for me.  I will be back stronger than ever in 2014 to win!   

I’m against: big business corporate greed hurting America. I’m in favor of: personal responsibilty, fair distribution of the wealth, fiscal responsibility to pay off our debt, increasing the min wage, tax breaks for small business owners, a carefully regulated free market economy that will prevent  capitalistic abuses, increase competition, and lower prices for goods and services, a proper balance between national security and civil liberties, and any program to help and expand the middle class (family of 4 under $150K/yr).

 I have the ability to get along, make friends, and compromise to get things done without compromising my democratic principles.  Like the great Thomas Jefferson said during his farewell address, "we may differ in our opinions but we can agree on our principles." 

NV has closed Primaries so you must be a registered Democrat to vote for me in the Primary.  If you’re non-partisan and don’t vote for me in the Primary, you will not have the best choice of candidates to vote for in the General Election.  It’s easy to update your voter registration.  here’s the link:

Sincerely, with hopes and dreams for our great country,

Thank you !
