Brief Bio of the Candidate

Thanks so much for taking the time to look at my website and examine my positions. These are very dangerous times, both economically and politically, in our Nation. We have a president who has chosen to surround himself with everything from outright admitted communists, advocates for forced abortion as population control, racists, and convicted voter fraud operatives—in particular, ACORN. What’s worse is that we have also seen our beloved Conservative-based Ronald Reagan Republican party transform into nothing short of a weakened Liberal-based collection of Democrat collaborators whose primary goal is to collect campaign cash. This campaign cash is out of hand and clearly, in my opinion, is what causes politicians to put their donors first, the illegal alien second, and taxpaying fools like you and I at the bottom of the list. Two local politicians that clearly define the “selling out” of the Republican Party are Kay Bailey Hutchison and Kay Granger. Both have taken the side of their campaign donors and voted against the Taxpayers of Texas. Specifically, they both voted for HR 1424, giving your tax dollars to Wall Street robber barons to the tune of $700 billion, the majority of which will be lost forever. And yes, both Hutchison and Granger took money from firms that directly benefited from this insanity. I'm not the type of person who will sit back and let this happen, and this is why I have decided to run against Kay Granger in the Primary for the 12th Congressional District.

I was born in Brooklyn, New York, and very soon after my parents saved enough money to move our family out to the suburbs known as Long Island, New York. My parents both worked in order to provide for me and my two sisters and to see to it that we all had the opportunity to attend college and get a higher education. I’m proud to say that my sister Victoria is an ordained minister and is an officer and a chaplain in the United States Navy. My other sister Sue resides in Scotland where she runs her own business. My parents still reside in Long Island, and every year when they get their Liberal-generated property tax bill, I again urge them to move to Texas.

At a very early age I was taught the value of hard work. Almost every day after school my friends and I would cut lawns, wash cars, rake leaves, or do any odd job to earn money. I knew at an early age I wanted to own my own business, and either fail or succeed based on my own merits. My parents always instilled upon us the value of education. We all took these lectures seriously, and upon graduating high school I was given a “Regents” scholarship. I spent my college years in Boston and graduated with high honors from Bentley College with a degree in Accountancy. I was recruited by Big Eight Accounting firms (at that time there were eight); however, I knew I had to pursue my dream of owning my own business. I began working with a friend who owned the remnants of a failing soda company. I looked at it, and felt it could succeed if given another chance. After a short time it did become profitable. It was then that I realized that our same customers would purchase virtually anything we could sell them. To make a long story short, I began researching various merchandise all throughout America, and this brought me to Texas numerous times. I was working this job six or seven days a week, at least 65 hours a week. It’s important to know that all of our customers were located in the highest crime areas of New York City. I also joined the local Fire Department. It is a sizeable department currently with five pumpers, two ladder companies, a heavy rescue, and three ambulances. In a few years I was elected to serve as lieutenant, and eventually I became captain. I have been to my share of disasters, including jumbo jet crashes such as Avianca Flight 007 (my company was the second company in), US Air flight 5050 at LaGuardia Airport, and a plethora of car and bus accidents that tragically resulted in many people losing their lives. I was instructed on the science of vehicle extrication, primarily accomplished with the use of power tools called “Hurst tools.” As captain I was often designated the incident commander of these incidents. The four individuals who instructed me over the years on different Hurst tool operations were all slaughtered by the Muslim murderers on September 11th. Two were police officers, two were fire fighters. Possibly you remember George Howard’s mother giving President Bush her son’s badge literally days after 9/11. The Viggiano brothers, as we affectionately called them, also were remembered on television numerous times, as their father met publicly with President Bush on a few occasions.

Please understand that the time I spent in New York and Boston allowed me to draw the following conclusions, which I hope to bring to the United States Congress. Liberalism has and always will fail, and when you give an underclass nothing but handouts you create a class of people who are beholden to the government and have no incentive to pull themselves out of the cycle of poverty. I do not use the term “underclass” in a derogatory way. My grandmother scrubbed floors during the Depression so that her family of eight could have a loaf or two of bread to survive on for the week. All of my aunts and uncles made it out of that ghetto due to hard work, and without the acceptance of one dime from taxpayer funds. After conducting business in every section of America, I quickly concluded that Texas was by far the best place to reside. I moved to Texas over 10 years ago, and I have resided with the 12th CD of Texas for about five years, specifically in Northwest Fort Worth near Bonds Ranch Road. Sadly, I see the same type of Liberalism that destroyed New York and Boston beginning to show its ugly head here in Texas. The illegal alien invasion is a good place to start when you want to see how neighborhoods and cities fall into decay. I have seen this in New York, and I have a burning desire to stop this disease of Liberalism from destroying Texas. Left unchecked, it will.

The most important thing in my life is my Christian faith and my desire to preserve all human life, unlike Kay Granger, who openly supports the murder of unborn babies. A close second to my faith is my two beautiful children, Cristian (age 12) and Paulina (age 10). I am a single parent and I legally adopted these two gifts from God. Like so many others, the wave of divorce has hit me, as well. As you can tell from the beautiful picture of Ronald Reagan on my homepage, he is my idol and hero. I’m disgusted that so many people who call themselves Republicans have thrown his values away and replaced them with campaign cash. My call to action came the day Kay Granger voted against the people of Texas and in favor of her New York-based, vile campaign contributors. When she voted with Obama, Pelosi, Frank and other Liberal Republicans in favor of the Bailout Bill (HR 1424) I knew it was time to act. Having a pretty extensive background on these types of “investment bankers” and the political influence they buy with their contributions, I decided to put it all on paper. I wrote the book Everything You Ever Wanted To Know About The Bailout Fraud so that at least there would be a factual, historical record of how the American Taxpayer was fleeced by politicians like Granger and Hutchison. Additionally, I filed a lawsuit against Timothy Geithner and the United States Treasury to prevent them from transferring one dime to the automobile manufacturers (HR 7321). The complete lawsuit is linked on my homepage (I'm not an attorney). Obama rushed everything through, and if you recall arguments of my case, made it to the Supreme Court being brought by Chrysler bond holders. T he former ACLU head (Ruth Bader Ginsberg) dismissed it, and allowed all deals to proceed in the same speed of light fashion with which Congress passed these Marxist bills. I'm convinced if this had been fully heard without radical time constraints, the people would have won. It’s one thing to be angry about what's happening to your government, like I clearly am. Speaking out helps a lot; however, I promise the people of 12th CD that I will not only speak out, I'll commence action. I've been in burning buildings with my friend’s air tank trapped as burning wood fell on us. I've had loaded guns pointed in my face. I've seen people gunned down five feet from me. Believe me, I will not be the slightest bit intimidated by some Democrat punk like Rahm Emmanuel threatening me like he threatens others. I welcome it. Furthermore, I will never drink the poison of corporate campaign cash. How can anyone make an honest decision when one side has greased them with tens of thousands of dollars? They can't. Please also take the time to read my various positions. I ask you to give me five percent of your trust, and I promise I will earn the other 95 percent in no time at all. With God's will and your continued prayers and help, we will put a Conservative in Congress and retire a Liberal.
