      BEGINNING OF CFABA.ORG CANDIDATE QUESTIONNAIRE (TM) QUESTIONS?

      01. Why are you running for this office? (We will post the answer to this question on our Internet Website, see the example of one endorsed candidate at [http://www.GoodGuysList.org/gg00031.htm]

      I want to serve my community, my state and my blessed America. And I mean it!

      I have enjoyed a wonderful life including an education at two of the world's finest universities, MIT and Caltech. My wife of 39 years and I founded our own aerospace business when she was 26 and I was 29. The business continues to thrive to this day. And so do our two children and two grandchildren. I have also been teaching as a part-time professor at USC and UCLA for the past 23 years.

      Yet, I began life under difficult circumstances. As a 16-year-old boy from a broken home, I got into trouble with the law and spent a year in jail. I had quit high school twice and hit rock bottom. On the night that I was sentenced to prison, a troubled boy cried himself to sleep realizing that society needed to be protected from him. The next morning, I awoke as a man determined to redeem himself. I completed 10th and 11th grades through a correspondence course and scored a perfect 800 on the SAT Math Achievement test. Before I left my prison cell I had decided that I was going to attend MIT.

      After finishing high school I was accepted to MIT and, with the financial assistance of a generous woman named Mrs. E. Paul duPont, I graduated in three years.

      Mrs. duPont also helped me obtain a full pardon from the governor of Delaware in 1966, the Honorable Charles Terry, Jr. Ironically, he was the judge who sentenced me to prison. The pardon was so extensive that it exonerated me of the charges I was convicted of and erased my prison record.

      I worked a year in the aerospace industry and then attended Caltech. It took me just three years to earn my PhD.

      I have now found a way to help teenagers who are in a correctional facility that is a 40-minute drive from my home. Every other week I work with them in a reading class. I tell them my life story as living proof that no young person should give up on himself, no matter how far he has fallen.

      Many people I deeply respect have said my life has been a magnificent example of the "American dream" and an "inspirational story" that I should tell to everyone. It has all been possible because so many people gave me a helping hand once they saw how hard I was working to help myself. That kind of compassion and willingness to help is so typically American.

      California is in a state of financial disarray and the state Assembly needs no-nonsense fiscal conservatives with business sense and experience to straighten things out. I am willing to invest the next 6 years of my life to helping do just that. I have a passion for good government and for America. Offering my skills for public service is the right thing to do.

      05. On December 1, 1994, the U.S. Congress and President passed the URUGUAY ROUND AGREEMENTS ACT, H.R. 5110.

      12.

      13. On May 5, 1994, the U.S. Congress and President passed H.R. 4296, "Assault Weapons Ban".

      President Clinton through his spokesman, Joe Lockhart said: "I think the president believes the curriculum is by law and by all common practice left to local school boards," White House Press Secretary Joe Lockhart said. "I think the president believes, that the local school boards, though, are bound by the law of the land and the Supreme Court has spoken very clearly on this issue."

There has been some debate since then that the provisions allowing for surveillance on Americans went too far in the passage of USAPA. Which one of the following most correctly describes your philosophy?:

      [ ] In time of war, I believe that the government of the United States should be given whatever power they need to combat terrorism even if there are challenges to the Bill of Rights in the Constitution.

      [ x ] I believe that the founding fathers of the United States put in checks and balances into our government such as the Constitution and especially the first ten amendments also called "The Bill of Rights," and those should not be eliminated.

      31. Since September 11, 2001 there has been a great deal of discussion in both the U.S.A., and in Middle Eastern Arab Muslim Countries, about whether Israel has a right to exist as a country. There are many in those countries that believe that Israel does not have a right to exist.

      [ x ] I believe that Israel has a right to exist as a Country and it is duty of the U.S.A. to enforce it's right to exist..

      [ ] I do not believe that Israel has a right to exist as a Country, and the U.S.A. should not enforce it's right to exist.

      32. On February 4, 2004, President George W. Bush made the following Statement on Massachusetts' Court Ruling. "Today's ruling of the Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court is deeply troubling. Marriage is a sacred institution between a man and a woman. If activist judges insist on re-defining marriage by court order, the only alternative will be the constitutional process. We must do what is legally necessary to defend the sanctity of marriage."

      [ x ] I believe that Marriage is a sacred institution between a man and a woman. I would support a Constitutional Amendment that defends marriage as only between a man and a woman.

      [ ] I believe that Marriage is a sacred institution but is not restricted to just between a man and a woman. I would not support a Constitutional Amendment that defends marriage as only between a man and a woman.

      34. Which one of the following most correctly describes your philosophy?:
