In their own words

Who are you? Tell us about yourself.

I am a statesman not a politician. I think long term for the common good of your children & grandchildren. A politician thinks short term for personal power/greed.

I was born in 1966 and grew up as the son of Army Lt. Colonel moving every few years inside and outside the USA. For 30+ years I have worked/volunteered as a teacher of Computer/IT skills including: 7+ Nonprofits in 5 states plus 7 international locations mostly with Tibetan refugee children in northern India. In Alaska, I substitute for elementary school special needs children & volunteer with many nonprofits.

My education is an Engineering Degree in Computer Science w/minor in Psychology from Washington University.

I am involved in many services organizations including: Rotary, Lions, Kiwanis, APO, + dozens more

Hobbies include: photography, chess, logic, truth examples @ www.AlaskaQuinn.com

My late father gave me a Roosevelt quote he believed matched my life “It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly"

Please list below 3 key messages of your campaign. What are the main points you want voters to remember about your goals for your time in office?

Women & Children First! Alaska ranks among the worst for Rape, Domestic Violence, Child Abuse, and Child Well-Being every decade. This is a disgrace which sends negative ripples through all other aspects of our society! Every second Alaskan woman does not need to be raped or assaulted because we do not care or act. We have a welcome sign inviting rapists and abusers to come and be paid by PFD to do evil. WWJD? If the male abuser has a wife and 2 children, who do you think gets all the money? Our children deserve the best education, foster care, adoption systems in the USA and our women deserve to be safe! No improvement then no PFD. We should be in the top 5 best not worst for all Women & Children categories!We need election reform including: term limits; taxing all campaign contributions at 90% then distribute the wealth to improving the entire election system such as poll worker pay, better security, improved access, balanced candidate access to voters, free valid voter ID, etc. Taxing is constitutional & does not stop freedom of speech. Politicians should only be paid after submitting an online 40 hour/wk detailed time sheet. All expenditures funded by taxes should be transparent & posted online in spreadsheet format monthly for citizen review. Evil grows in the dark, so export the current accounts payable/receivable data into shared spreadsheets.

Please start at a local level and introduce these ideas for a vote to raise awarenessWe need to stop Christian Nationalism which is spreading as a cancerous virus destroying the soul of the greatest nation on Earth. Search NACL and Christian Nationalism to learn more. The virus seeks to merge Christian and American identities, distorting both the Christian faith and America’s constitutional democracy. It demands Christianity be privileged by the State and implies that to be a good American, one must be Christian. It often overlaps with and provides cover for white supremacy and racial subjugation... It distorts both the Christian faith & America's constitutional Democracy - www.ChristiansAgainstChristianNationalism.org

What areas of public policy are you personally passionate about?

41 key issues are listed on my website www.AlaskaQuinn.com they include: Balanced flat wealth tax: simple 10% tax on all wealth with single $50k deduction/person & cash rebates. Clean your own mess: If you create a waste product then you clean it up, not taxpayers later. Corporate Responsibility: top executives serve prison time for corporate crimes & corporation loses all copyrights/patens. Affordable health care & education for all citizens. Clean Air/Water guaranteed to all citizens. Law firm tax to reduce the legal system incentive to sue. Privacy contact rights to stop personal data from being collected. Equal pay rebate: provide tax rebate for employer discrimination. Sick care prevention rewarding health. 30+ on website
