Leadership is about protecting the health and safety of U.S citizens by thoroughly securing and managing a country’s borders to only those legally authorized, vetted and cleared for passage. Leadership is about the protection and use of a nation’s natural resources to create a strong economic base, that provides American citizens with job opportunities at a fair wage, while balancing environmental impacts.

Leadership is about controlling a nation’s spending to keep it reasonably inline with income, without creating unsustainable debt or unaffordable inflation.

Leadership is about not leaving American citizens and American allies behind in a hostile land when its time to leave.

Leadership is about managing a government bureaucracy, where application of laws and policies are always equally applicable to all its citizens.

Leadership is about a government manned by individuals, qualified to the discipline assigned, not chosen primarily based on race or sexual orientation.

Leadership is about the creation of policy that works to unify a country, not to divide and pull it apart.

Leadership is about putting country before party before family.

Leadership is about logical and common sense ideas and the ability to clearly communicate them.

Leadership is NOT about President Biden, nor his Administration.
