Political Party
Why I'm Registering as an Independent...
The first question people like to ask about my Presidential Campaign is "what party are you running in". At this point, rather than picking a political party that doesn't quite represent all of my views and positions, or making a hasty decision that leaves me with lots of regret, I am registering as an independent.
Politically, I consider myself to be toward the middle of the political spectrum. In ways I am more liberal, in others I am a bit more conservative. I believe that we can work together to create a government that has a purpose to represent all the people. Most of us agree that there are times that we need to be liberal, and times that we need to be conservative. I want this campaign to be a representation of that: the idea that we can be both liberal and conservative. As a future voter, I would have no problem voting for either a Democrat or a Republican, so long as they match my political views.
By registering, and possibly continuing my political life as an independent, I can be free from any one specific political party and it's overwhelming corruptions and specific political agendas that do not match the opinions of the general public. And while I may join one of the two main parties in the future, for now I wish to remain unattached and independent- and not affiliated. Please join me in keeping to the middle to create Positive Change for the People!

Equality
Not Equal, Fair.
This campaign was founded on the idea that the world isn't built on equality. But the fairness of situations is something we can have some sort of impact on. Because of a world full of unique individuals and an infinite number of unique situations, we need an administration who cares about the people over the legal policy. While I can't say my campaign or administration would not be law based, I plan on having a large resource base of people to gain a better understanding of what the national community needs, and how we can best help them.
When I started this campaign, it was founded with three words and a simple phrase.
Integrity. Justice. Honesty. Positive Change for the People.
The main idea of this campaign is that with people of integrity, the understanding and fairness of justice, and the straightforward trait of honesty will bring about positive change for the people. For the people. Not for the politicians.
You see, all the people throughout history that have called out for equality- Women in work rights and in voting rights, African Americans, people of the LGBT movement- were really calling out for fairness. In changing legislation throughout our nation's history, we were going deeper than bringing about equality, we were showing the idea of fairness. In this campaign I want to find the place where I can look directly at the issues and find a fair, balance and just solution, in which the disadvantaged group or individual can find themselves on the same level as any other person or group.

Closed Primaries
There are two great American tragedies when it comes to political parties and voting. They are Straight-Ticket Voting, and Closed Primaries. The solution to both problems begins with you!
It's up to you to take action! If you see your state on the list, contact your state government and demand your voting freedom! And, while you're at it, be sure to look at candidates before you vote for them! Never blindly vote straight-ticket... for Republicans or Democrats and consider our challenger parties!

The Future of Education
Empowering the Future through Education!If put into place, our administration would make education in America one of its strongest focuses, and, in time, we hope to make it one of our finest achievements and growths in our country. We plan on working hard with teachers all across America to inspire the long needed changes education has been needing. Education is a gateway to the future, and should not be treated as anything less. And, as we progress into the future, education should be at the top of our minds- something that needs constant attention and change.
Education should not be run entirely by the federal government.
