I have been blogging for nearly 15 years on political issues and I see politicians adamantly stick to divisive issues to win a constituency. When I observed Congress spent last 3 years on 2016 election, I felt it is time for working class people to run for elected office. I have a Masters in Geology and also a Masters in Science from Old Dominion University. My wife earned her Ph.D. in Health Services. Our children studied at Garrett Park ES and Matsunaga ES before completing their high school in Frederick County.
- Prevention of active duty/veteran suicide
- Spend 8 trillion dollars on domestic priorities
- Bring medical school and VA hospital to Frederick
Suicide prevention of Americans is my top priority. Service member suicide trend is very heartbreaking and my candidacy is devoted to bring necessary actions. About 400 service members commit suicide each year.
I care about our future as a nation. I run to act on the issues that will help the middle class and to end hostilities in Asia and bring troops home. Invest eight trillion dollars, matching the approximate sum spent on middle eastern wars on domestic priorities. My priorities are bringing the cost of college education down and wipe out portions of student debt and bring tax burden of families making less than 300 K. Strengthen public education without social experiments. I will confront socialism with great ideas without bankrupting the nation.
My goal for MD-06 is bringing a third medical school to Maryland. I envision a large medical university and VA hospital closer to Fort Detrick and National Cancer Institute in Frederick. I will focus getting four lanes on I -270 without tolls and strive to reduce the toll on inter-county connector with federal funding, Will initiate effort to build outer beltway to reduce congestion on I-495.

Do you remember the 21st night of September?
They are connected with the constituents and represent their feelings and ambitions.
Socialism
Democrats promise everything for free without revealing the true cost. Socialism did not succeed anywhere. If democrats happen to win, the dollar value will fall dramatically. Most banks will collapse. Many Montgomery homes will be abandoned, because upper 25% of the voters will be taxed to the max. Government employees will suffer the most, as their salary won't keep up with inflation. Bribery and corruption will take over all levels of government. Death tax will be confiscatory as there is no way to fund a approximately 16 trillion dollar budget. I will confront socialism with great ideas without bankrupting the nation.
6 terms max for Congress
2 terms for Senate
