Patriotism

I am a proud patriot and outspoken advocate for initiatives that support the values shared by our Founding Fathers when they crafted the U.S. Constitution. I believe passionately that liberty, equal opportunity, and personal responsibility are the keys to both a flourishing nation and individual success. I hold myself to high standards and expect the same of others.  

The advancement and diffusion of knowledge is the only guardian of true liberty.

— James Madison
