What would your top priorities for the economy be? |
What unique quality do you have? |
Jason Anderson |
Have never held political office or appointment. Obligated to run because we need sacrificial leaders. |
|
Creating predictable laws and a transparent court system. Getting the government out of the way. Pass a Balanced Budget Amendment. |
Fed up with Republican In Name Only. An outsider looking in. Will look for what the parties can agree on. Wants ethics reform in congress. |
Susan Brooks |
The people want a new type of leadership and a new type of leader. Will focus on jobs, economy, security and restoring civility to the process. |

Has done 366 meet and greets. Wants safety. Wants to restore civility to the process. Wants term limits. |
John Lugar |
Is a small-business owner. Small-business owners are what are needed to return to prosperity. |
|
The solution is jobs. Getting people back to work will “get the ball rolling.” Cut regulation. Work on energy independence. |
Willing to make a stand. Will get Generations X and Y involved in the nation. Is an “every-day American and a small-business owner.” |
John McGoff |
This is a chance to “take back the nation” after the Grand Old Party “blew it” in 2007-2011. |
|
Affordable Healthcare Act will “singlehandedly destroy this nation.” “Businesses are afraid of tax, regulations and Obamacare.” |

David McIntosh |
Nation is headed in the wrong direction as a result of expanding government, Affordable Healthcare Act and debt being piled up. |

Repeal automatic tax increase. Move toward a lower, flatter rate. Repeal the Clean Air Act. Stabilize the currency. Drill for oil on public land. Pass a Balanced Budget Amendment. |
Will restore civility to the process. “The president doesn’t think America is great.” Willing to do what it takes to push things through. |
William Salin |
The “top down” mentality is bad for grass roots. Washington can’t balance the budget, but local government can. Push from the ground up. |
|
Reduce regulations for companies that want to come back to the U.S. from Asia. The barrier to business is stability. |
Will work hard and won’t take “no” for an answer. Will work tirelessly. Loves the nation. |
