What characteristics or principles are most important for an elected official?
To have honor, integrity, honesty, and a sense of self accountability if they do wrong.
What qualities do you possess that you believe would make you a successful officeholder?
I have experienced first hand like many americans the effects of the laws being passed over the years. I have seen where this country is failing when it comes to things like addiction, education, healthcare, Prison system. I have seen the problems with housing, stagnant pay wages, and lack of any effort by the government to fix it. Over the years I have seen them enact laws going specifically against us the people. I believe I would be successful because I am not a regular politician, instead I am a regular American who knows what the American people both need and demand to make their lives easier and better. I am not bought by corporations, and I don't intend on ever meeting with corporate lobbyists.
What do you believe are the core responsibilities for someone elected to this office?
To make the people's life easier and happier

What is something that has been a struggle in your life?
I have had many struggles in life. Growing up I was abused, manipulated, and lied to. I suffered addiction which I am 6 yrs clean today as I write this makes 6 years and 1 day. I have struggled with homelessness and had to live in places that didn't have and power or water. But I never let any of that stop me. I do not quit, I do not bow to things that seek to hinder me. I fight them. I fight them with every ounce of energy I have and I succeed. And that's what I plan on doing in this race, and in the halls of congress. I plan to fight for what is right for the American people and any senator who stands in the way, will be put on full display for the public to vote accordingly the next election.
What do you perceive to be the United States' greatest challenges as a nation over the next decade?
Fighting white supremacist

Honestly I am not concerned about my relationship with senators as much as I am fighting for the people. If they are for the people then the relationship shouldn't have any issues.

For the most part absolutely but if the people want it then there shouldn't be any compromise.
