Join the new world

eAlabama, I want you back - not just because you're sexy, but because I think we go best together. I've served lots of terms in the congress, and honestly, I'm awesome at it.

I'm running again because I believe I have the experience to do the job well, dedication to do the job day in and day out, knowledge of the role's limits to set and achieve good goals for another month.

EXPERIENCE

I've been playing this game for a long time. I’ve been a senior Home Guard/National Guard Officer, and I'm in the Airborne now. I've been a member of the last two President's cabinets as Congressional Liaison. I'm a mentor. My previous experience is extensive: I’ve served as chair of the Foreign Relations Advisory Committee, and sat on the Budget and Finance Committee, I was a member of the APF exec committee, I've been a member of the AAP's Round Table, Oversight Committee, and Congressional Elections Committee, I have served as Undersecretary of State for PEACE relations, as a department of developing regions staffer, as Ambassador to eRussia, and I have previously served eleven terms as a Senator. I am well regarded by my peers and have always done well congressional evaluations, earning high ratings every time I'm evaluated.

I’ve seen multiple world wars, and I've seen this country move through Atlantis, EDEN, nonalignment, and now PANAM. I'm a pragmatist. I know our strengths and I know our weaknesses and I know that keeping an eye on our money and who has control over it is the best way to keep people honest.

DEDICATION

I am absolutely committed to making this country stronger.

I have nineteen hard worker medals (20 tomorrow), because I care about our economy and about the businesses that make this country great. I've only missed very few days of work in my entire eLife, and I once went so far as to track down a stranger with an iPhone at the Kentucky Derby to make sure I got my work and training in for the day. Interestingly, while many people had iPhones, far fewer were willing to hand them to some stranger so he could “two click”.

I’m a business owner and a philanthropist. I have donated thousands of weapons to our soldiers and citizens and will continue to do so.

I respond to every message or citizenship request I receive, and do so thoroughly. Ask any of the numerous new citizens I've helped through the IES process. No one is sneaking into the eUS on my watch, but true patriots should always be welcomed back as quickly as possible.

I post often and substantively on the national forums, military forums, and my party forums. I try to contribute to our national debate and help steer this country in the right direction.

ROLE OF A SENATOR

While we run for office from various regions, once the election is over we assume the duties of a national legislature. This is critical. I'm not going to promise to bring hospitals and defense systems or any other pork to Alabama, not because I don't love this state, but because I want to see the nation move forward with a wise infrastructure strategy that takes into account our global position.

I worked hard for several terms to try to improve the way congress operates, and I managed to get a code of laws passed, and in the coming terms I’d like to work with all of the various parts of our government to get people back on the same page and working together.

The Congress is a body with limited authority that is primarily economic in nature. While we can vote on foreign policy proposals from the president such as declarations of war, treaties, embargoes, etc., we are primarily a body tasked with economic authority and some limited power to run domestic programs. It's important to keep our core role in mind.

I support keeping our military well funded, continuing to regulate the value of our currency through the CBO, and our present (as much as is possible given the current admin intervention), limited, domestic programs. Past there, I see it as my job to keep people honest and make sure we efficiently and effectively execute policy.

And so . . .

Vote for me. I know this shit cold and I handle business
