Liberty Under God
WAS DENIED A HEARING AT THE
Ozark Candidate Forum



I was denied an opportunity to address the Ozark Candidate Forum at the Ozark Community Center because of some obscure federal law which says that if the incumbent does not show up, the challenger cannot say anything.

That's not exactly what the law says, but that's the impact.

Here are my answers to the questions that would have been asked of me, if the First Amendment were still in effect in America.

Q.1. What must be done to improve the U.S. economy?

A.1: We must abolish socialism and return to the Free Enterprise System. The government wants to spend $4 trillion. Our entire economy is only $14 Trillion. See these links:

Q.2: Discuss your position on U.S. involvement in Iraq and Afghanistan

A.2: The federal government has committed us to spend $10,000 for every man, woman, and small child in America to overthrow Saddam Hussein's government and replace it with an Islamic Theocracy under Sharia Law.  America's Founding Fathers would have strenuously opposed this foreign military aggression.

Q. 3: Illegal immigration is an issue country-wide. What are your ideas and positions on this issue?

A.3: According to the U.S. Constitution, the Declaration of Independence, the Bible, and the Statue of Liberty, there is no such thing as an "illegal" immigrant. The Constitution does not give the federal government power to prevent me from hiring an immigrant to work in my business. Federal policy toward immigrants is unAmerican and unChristian.

Q.4: Would you have supported or changed the 2009 Stimulus Bill? Please explain.

A.4: No. Completely unconstitutional, and contrary to America's Free Enterprise System. See the links in Q.1 above.

Q.5: What is the role of the Federal Government in protecting citizens from fraudulent or insolvent health care plans?

A.5: None. The Constitution creates a government of "enumerated powers." This is not one of the enumerated powers.

Q.6: Would you have supported, resisted, or changed the $750 Billion financial bailout? Why?

A.6: No, same reason as Q.4 above. See links in Q.1 above.

As these webpages make clear, Kevin Craig is the best-equipped candidate to promote and defend free market capitalism against the growing socialism and communism of Washington D.C.
