Each issue has its own range of views. A position is marked on that range only when the candidate's own statement clearly matches one option; there is no overall left–right score.
Taxes and Budget
His campaign website says he signed the FAIRtax Pledge to support H.R. 25, which it says would replace federal income taxes and other federal taxes with a single-rate federal retail sales tax.3,
- Replace the current income tax with a single flat rate or a national sales tax
- Cut rates further, including the top rate
- Keep current rates
- Raise rates on high incomes only (for example, above $400,000)
His campaign website says there should be no increase in the national debt and that the country should pay its bills as it goes along.5
Courts, Rights and Civil Liberties
His campaign website says the USA Freedom Act, the Military Commissions Act and the FISA legislation must be repealed or fundamentally changed to protect privacy and civil liberties.5
- Don't renew it, or replace it with much narrower authority
- Renew it, but require a warrant to search the collected records for Americans' communications
- Renew it without major changes
Education
His campaign website says he pledges to support H.R. 899 and its 2025 successor to terminate the Department of Education.4
- Close the department and move or end its programs
- Shrink it and give states more control over federal school money
- Keep the department and its programs, or expand it
Crime, Policing and Prisons
His campaign website says he pledges to support H.R. 7085, the Ending Qualified Immunity Act, which it says eliminates the qualified immunity defense in civil actions for deprivation of rights.4
- End qualified immunity for police officers
- Keep qualified immunity as courts apply it now
- Write qualified immunity into federal law
Economy, Jobs and Trade
His campaign website says he seeks a thorough investigation and audit of the Federal Reserve and says the Fed's arbitrary, closed-door power to create money and credit for commercial interests should end, and that he pledges to support the Gold Standard Restoration Act, which it says would require the Treasury to fix the dollar's value at a set weight of gold.4,
