1 - Individual Freedom
2 - Limited Government
3 - The Rule of Law
4 - Peace Through Strength
5 - Fiscal Responsibility
6 - Free Markets
7 - Human Dignity
8 - Our technical policies should be based on real Science, not political science.
9 - Conservatives advocate equal opportunity, not equal results.
10-Election integrity means easy to vote, hard to cheat, with verifiable results.
