"My name is John Lyon,
and I am running as a write-in candidate for
the Republican nomination for US Senate. My
platform is designed to serve the best
interests of the American people under the
US Constitution." |
|
[...] |
|
"My proposal for
“comprehensive” immigration reform is
two-fold:
I
propose to make it a federal felony, with
mandatory prison on a first offense, to be
in the United States without permission. I
further propose to put military units on the
southern border with orders to use lethal
force if necessary against would-be illegal
border crossers." |
|
"Thousands of Americans
die every year at the hands of illegal
aliens driving drunk or committing other
crimes. Their blood is on the federal
government’s hands. The drugs that enter
America across our southern border are
wreaking havoc in our society. The federal
government must start fulfilling its
Constitutional obligation to defend America
against invasion." |
|
"I
oppose any further amnesties or “Dream
Acts.” We already had a
“one-time-only” mass amnesty in 1986, and
all it did was make the problem several
times worse. The federal government should
start upholding the best interests of
law-abiding Americans, rather than pandering
to illegal aliens." |
|
"Regarding America’s
Welfare State,
I
propose to block grant to the states and
phase out poverty programs such as Medicaid,
Food Stamps, and Subsidized Housing.
There is no authority in the US Constitution
for the federal government to engage in
charity work. The federal War on Poverty has
resulted in illegitimacy, dependency, drug
abuse and other crimes. Criminal street
gangs are running rampant in America’s
prisons and jails, subsidized housing
projects, and schools. The War on Poverty
has been very harmful to America, and must
end." |
|
[...] |
|
"In financial policy, I
feel that
we
should end the Federal Reserve Board and the
IRS. We should use consumption based
taxes, such as tariffs, to raise revenue. We
should
return to using precious metals as money." |
|
[...] |
|
"What we currently have in
Washington, D.C., is a globalist tyranny. It
is up to American voters to change that."" |
