1) Eliminate the current tax code and the IRS, replace it with the fair tax
2) Stop spending money on things like illegal immigration, social security for the wealthy, and big government agencies that can be combined or don't work. Set a goal of cutting the national deficit in half over the next decade. Also cut the Bush medicare-perscription drug bill on seinors who have the money to buy their own perscription drugs.
3) Set aside $250 billion for research and development in defense, healthcare, energy, and computers. Also invest $20 billion or so of this into the interstate highway system. All of these things would create jobs Keep in mind the fair tax would save the federal government $340 billion.
4) Repeal Obamacare and pass a bill that allows portabillity, gives tax credits for people to buy healthcare, and that requires companies to cover everyone no matter what without price gauging.
5) Expand the worker re-training program
6) Engage in free-trade, but also level the playing field with regards to trade with China
7) Domestic In-land drilling, accidents can be stopped in these instances
8) Tax-credits for companies who hire unemployed people
9) Repeal the "homebuyers" tax credit
10) Give tax cuts to companies that want to invest in new equipment made in the USA

2010 Candidates I support
1) Marco Rubio - Gov. Charlie Crist supports Obama's $787 billion stimulus, opposes the repeal of Obamacare, and supports off-shore drilling, just not off Florida's coast. Governor Crist also recently passed a union-backed education bill. Charlie Crist will spend to much money as a U.S. Senator. Marco Rubio is a Jeb Bush republican who believes in tax cuts and border security. He is a reform-minded conservative who will be a leader we can trust.
2) Sharon Angle - Harry Reid believes the war in Iraq was lost and that stimulus spending and cap and trade help Americans. Sharon Angle will stop Harry Reid and the Washington establishment before they spend all our money, increase taxes in the form of cap and trade, and make sure the GITMO terrorists aren't brought into our court system here.
3) Sen. John McCain - Despite my disagreements with the Arizona Senator on issues like campaign finance, Bush's tax cuts, the federal marriage amendment, and certain aspects of his immigration bill, I have long respected his service both as a soldier and a senator. John McCain fought for the department of homeland security, the surge in Iraq, and led to normalize relations with Vietnam. J.D. Hayworth, on the other hand, was silent on Iraq and voted for the largest expansion of medicare in history. Senator John McCain has always put his country first, and I believe he deserves another 6 years in Washington.
4) Kelly Ayote - A fiscal conservative, Kelly Ayote took on the pro-choice movement in New Hampshire despite the state having a history of voting for democrats.
5) Pat Toomey - Former Congressman Pat Toomey is an economic conservative who believes in low taxes, less spending, and limited government. His opponent, Rep. Joe Sestack, is a good man who served his country, but he is a tax&spend liberal.
6) Carly Filorina - Instead of having just Washington insiders go to Washington, why don't we have an accomplished businesswoman like Carly Filorina? She actually has experience looking at budgets and has seen jobs come and go. Carly is ready to lead in the United States Senate.
7) Chet D. Traylor - Senator David Vitter can't be trusted in his marriage, so how can he be trusted to legislate on behalf of Louisiana? This is Bobby Jindal's home state, meaning a new era in Louisiana state government has begun. Chet D. Traylor will restore the integrity Louisiana deserves in the U.S. Senate. David Vitter has shamed his state, its time for a change. Chet D. Traylor is the true conservative choice for Louisiana.
8) Jack Conway - Liberal Rand Paul believes in defense spending cuts and cutting & running from the middle-east. Paul also would weaken America's aliances and would eliminate the FDA, causing harmful substances to appear in our food supply. Furthermore, Rand Paul is a closet racist. Jack Conway is a conservative democrat who proposes a plan to cut deficit spending. In fact, Jack Conway is more conservative than the liberal Rand Paul.
9) Jane Norton - Jane Norton is the person to represent Colorado in the U.S. Senate. She has a long record of public service, and one that is impressive.
10) Mark Kirk - Rep. Mark Kirk will restore fiscal integrity and character to the senate seat from IL.
11) Mike Castle - Former Gov. Mike Castle will help the republicans gain the votes needed to stop the big-government, massive spending agenda in Washington.
12) Roy Blunt - The tough talking congressman is just what Missouri needs in the U.S. Senate
13) Dino Rosi - A truth-telling politician? Thats Dino Rossi.
2) Sharon Angle - Harry Reid believes the war in Iraq was lost and that stimulus spending and cap and trade help Americans. Sharon Angle will stop Harry Reid and the Washington establishment before they spend all our money, increase taxes in the form of cap and trade, and make sure the GITMO terrorists aren't brought into our court system here.

The case and need for immigration reform
As I discussed in my most recent youtube video (www.youtube.com/mrconservativetalk) I believe we are in need of real immigration reform in America. There has to be border security, first and foremost. Next, we need an employment verification system and a tamper-proof I.D. card. We need to crack down on benefits to illegals and stop funding sanctuary cities. Those who are here illegally should get in back of the line and pay a penalty and pay back missed taxes over a period of time. A few years ago, Sen. John McCain (R-AZ) and the late Sen. Ted Kennedy (D-MA) proposed "comprehensive reform." While this did secure the border, I feel that a $3,000 fine is not sufficent because U.S. taxpayers are spending more on benefits to illegals and therefore, those here illegally should also pay back missed taxes. Republicans and democrats have failed to secure the border and stop illegal immigration. President Obama and memebers of both parties in congress need to take the steps I mentioned above to get something done. No amnesty, no open-borders, and no special treatment for those here illegally.
