My Stance on Other Social Issues
I believe that the Republican party as a whole needs to be more inclusive. I would never pander to a specific group to gain their votes. I would present myself to them as is...take it or leave it. As President, or even as a candidate, I would not answer to the religious right wing of our party. I am a moderate Republican! I would opperate near the political center and encourage those who not traditionally Republican constituents such as African Americans and Hispanics to vote for me and the Republican party. Also as President, I would not be affraid to work with members of any political party, be it Republican, Democrat, Reform or any other independent party, as long as we accomplish what is in the best interest of the United States of America. Even though I am a moderate Republican, on abortion, I am pro-life. Abortion is legalized murder on demand. I would require that parental consent be given in cases where the mother is under eighteen years of age, and I would require medical counseling for all seeking one, and then they must wait a twenty-four hour period after counseling ends. I would cut off all government funding to abortion clinics. I would nominate judges who would overturn Roe v. Wade, and return this decision to the states. On the issue of a Vice Presidential running mate, I would choose someone who I believe would be capable of being "a heart beat away" from the Presidency. Also, I would want somebody who would support me and my policies.
