A Republican is moral, ethical and of high integrity.

A Republican believes in the American dream and opportunity for all through individual effort.

A Republican believes in American exceptualism.

A Republican believes in life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.

A Republican believes in the American family.

A Republican believes in the right to bear arms.

A Republican believes in the right to life.

A Republican believes in a strong military.

A Republican appreciates, respects and feels an obligation to our veterans.

A Republican believes in the right to work.

Support for these tenets is critical.  I point to two recent events:

National

• The death of Justice Scalia and naming of a new Supreme Court Justice.

Local

• Recent legislation for bridge and highway Tolls highlights the importance of a valid two party system and the need to eliminate the lopsided Democratic advantage in the Rhode Island legislature.
