Why are you seeking elective office? To prevent "woke" Democrats from destroying America.

The single most pressing issue facing our (board, district, etc.) is _______, and this is what I intend to do about it. The urgent need to teach Americans, especially young Americans, how to identify and reject fake news, fake history, and fake science that is being promoted to divide, weaken, and destroy America. To teach them how to understand and support the institutions, ideas, and values that once gave Americans more freedom, justice, opportunities, safety, and wealth than any other people in history.

What are the critical differences between you and the other candidates seeking this post? I have spent a lifetime learning, practicing, and applying the history, laws, and constitutions that brought exceptional greatness to America.

If you are a challenger, in what way has the current board or officeholder failed the community (or district or constituency) N/A. Chris Brown, the current NJ State Senator is not seeking re-election.

Describe the other issues that define your campaign platform. Stand up to Murphy and the Democrats. Stop paying people who can work, not to work. Back the Blue against BLM/Antifa criminals. Support parents who opt out of government schools. End woke mandates like men in women's sports. Fund roads and bridges, not illegal aliens. Defend gun rights and our conservative values. Stop borrowing. Cut costs. Put taxpayers first.

What accomplishments in your past would you cite as evidence you can handle this job? 45 years as a lawyer, 5 years, as an elected official helping people resolve problems and achieve justice. 18 years of forming and leading LibertyAndProsperity.com

The best advice ever shared with me was: If it seems there is not enough time to do a job right, remember that there is plenty of time to do it over.

What else would you like voters to know about yourself and your positions? The messages I posted in countless essays, videos, and podcasts during the past ten years which are posted at LibertyAndProsperity.com.
