POLITICAL PHILOSOPHY OF CANDIDATE

PETER ROMANOWSKY


To begin with my philosophy is based on the non-violent political change that both Martin Luther King preached, as well as his mentor Mahatma Ghandi. I believe that I am to continue the work that they began and who were also both inspired by Jesus of Nazareth. The change that needs to take place is so great, so fundamental, that the Republican Party philosophy alone, will not be able to continue the basic changes that need to be accomplished.

Number one education,
we are last in the civilized and industrialized world in test scores. Only Latvia and Cyprus are further behind,we have fallen from being the best, to the worst, considering our size and talents. How could this be? well one answer is that all the great centers of learning that our country was originally founded on were religious in nature. Since the Supreme Court has taken upon it self to remove pluralistic religious tolorance from our public education system, the schools have slowly sank into chaos. Teachers are being raped and beaten, children are bringing weapons to school and slashing other students. Knifes have replaced the Mcguffey reader, bloodshed and shootings are becoming common place. Without morality based upon some notion that there is a Supreme Being to give account too, we are all hearding just like animals.

What is the answer? well in light of current supreme court rulings, we will have to encourage private charter schools to be established with vouchers to compete with the public schools which are so entrenced with thier own union philosophy and job security that they have little time to really educate the children like they need to be. Without healthy competion from the private sector and the godly missionary minded volunteers needed to educate our children with some kind of moral purpose other then survival of the fittest. There is no hope of ever turning things around to the point where we can once again say the words, "thou shalt not kill".


Needless to say the other philosophical foundations of this campaign are the basic beliefs that government has become to big when it incrouches upon the family time of it's citizens. Teachers spend more time with our children then parents do. It 's wrong for our children to be taught social engineering in our schools during daylight hours and then loading them down with homework based on the things that should have been taught in school. But instead it becomes more time taken from the parents or the parents having to become the teachers after hours, when thier tax money should have been doing the job during the day.

The school system and the prison system have grown to be the two largest aspects of our government and both are headed by the two largest unions in the state.They want to protect thier jobs over the welfare of the children that are trapped in thier schools and the fathers that are trapped in thier prisons.
