Roland on the Issues

The federal debt is approaching $10 trillion. Illegal immigration has swelled out of control. Government programs are bloated, and Congress continues to spend taxpayers' money with reckless abandon. In the midst of these domestic problems, we are fighting a costly global war against Radical Islamic Fundamentalists (the RIF).

Inefficiency in Congress is at an all-time high, and, with the problems we face, both abroad and at home, this is absolutely unacceptable.

As an engineer and small business owner, I have been finding and implementing effective real world solutions for years. I will help move Washington away from partisan gridlock, secret backroom deals, and bad policies to promote efficiency, integrity, and logical solutions. Now is the time to take control away from party insiders and special interest groups and put it in the hands of real people with real solutions.
Rather than playing the same political game that many politicians play and trying to drive a wedge between voters with incomplete and slanted analyses of the issues, I would like to encourage voters to dig deeper and research the issues on their own. Along with my own discussion of each issue, I have provided you with links to articles that may give you a fuller understanding of my position or of the issue as a whole.

I have organized the issues into three main categories: Deficit and Spending, Freedom, and Morality and Justice

For a complete list of issues, please see the Issues Index.
