Policy Platform

Many Americans were hoping for a serious change from the previous eight years of Bush's policies, instead they have been sadly subjected to nothing but more of the same. The Obama administration has, contrary to the demand of the vast majority of Americans, continued to push the same financial schemes responsible for the hyper-inflationary collapse of the entire monetary system, with full criminal complicity of Democratic congressional leaders such as Barney 'Bailout' Frank and House Speaker Pelosi. This policy disaster, tantamount to treason, has resulted in massive unemployment, an explosion in home foreclosures, and a further take-down of our nation's physical production and endangered machine-tool sector, all despite trillions of dollars in bailouts for Wall St. and London-centered financial interests.

My campaign forcefully rejects the present failed policies, and supports instead the immediate implementation of the economic recovery solutions long proposed by American statesman, and the world's leading economic forecaster, Lyndon LaRouche. Likewise, the following policies are not meant to illustrate wishful thinking, whose fulfillment is promised at some later date after an election, but rather represent the actions for survival my campaign is organizing the population around right now. We cannot wait until the November 2010 election, or a January 2011 inauguration, to begin reversing the policies that have brought our country to the brink of ruin.

My campaign will make it a point to engage in collaborative dialogue with two other Democratic 2010 congressional campaigns launched by fellow members of the LaRouche Youth Movement in both Massachusetts and California. Such collaboration serves to emphasize the national policy orientation any legitimate political leadership must have if they are to address the crises our nation now faces.

Manned Space Program:
The 22nd Congressional district of Texas is home to NASA's Johnson Space Center, a national treasure, and the key to the future greatness of America. My campaign will put space and scientific development back at the top of our nation's list of priorities. A fully-funded NASA energized by a serious manned Moon/Mars colonization project could spearhead a real economic recovery by emphasizing the rapid and massive creation of productive and meaningful employment in the scientific, machine-tool, and related industrial sectors. A real Moon/Mars project would revolutionize overall current methods in physical economic production, which could be used to free our policy making away from the failed monetarist assumptions of the now bankrupt Globalized Free-Market system.

Bankruptcy Reorganization:
For any recovery to work, the entire financial-monetary system, and its hopelessly bankrupt institutions such as the Federal Reserve, must first be put through a complete bankruptcy reorganization in accordance with traditional Glass-Steagall banking standards and coupled with a return to uniquely American form of constitutional credit system. Under such standards, all legitimate debts will be honored and useful banking functions and accounts protected, while on the other hand all purely fictitious, speculative and otherwise worthless paper debt will be written off.

Productive Jobs:
We must enact the authority of Congress, as laid out by our U.S. Federal Constitution, to issue federal credit for various national infrastructure projects. Such federally issued credit will be primarily directed into investments in large-scale infrastructure projects such as, but not limited to, high-speed rail, rapid construction of new nuclear power plants, great water projects, etc.. Our youth need the skills, discipline, and grounded sense of self that only gainful employment in science, industry and agriculture can provide.
