Shane Hazel PARTY: Republican SEEKING: Congress, District 7 2018 Gwinnett Forum candidate questionnaire NAME: Shane Hazel PARTY: Republican SEEKING: Congress, District 7 Why are you seeking your office? I'm running to bring principles back to politics, and remove our current establishment politician. Woodall is the DC Propagandist to the GA7 District, and he rates an F from The New American, Conservative Review, Heritage Foundation and FreedomWorks for his voting and spending record. He is a product of Washington and has been up there since 1994. He doesn't understand what it's like to have a private sector job or run a business. He has proven time and time again that he supports deficit spending and growing the debt of this nation which compromises our children's future. I'm running to (100) What do you expect to accomplish if elected? Using the office as a national podium, we will advocate for Constitutionally limited government and aim to be a voice for everyday hardworking individuals, families and businesses. Our focus will be to reach people about their God-given birth rights in an effort to grow future generations that will restore and improve the United States. While in office we will introduce bills to abolish the IRS and pass the FairTax, repeal, not replace Obamacare and stop the disgraceful treatment of veterans by the VA. What distinguishes your candidacy? I am the only candidate in the race that will always vote for a reduction in the size, scope, and intrusiveness of the Federal government. I am the only candidate who teaches the Constitution and its history. I am the only combat-decorated veteran, giving me a special set of skills that include; asymmetrical warfare & counterinsurgency. I am the only candidate endorsed by Georgia Right To Life, The Republican Liberty Caucus, Constitutional Grassroots Movement and Georgia Republican Assembly. I am the only candidate that is advocating the Non-Aggression Principle both internationally and domestically, and Austrian Economic policies in line with (100) How can we improve school safety?

Most importantly teach prayer and faith. Pick one issue. Expand on how you will address it. Our nation spends more on Military offense than the next 12 nations combined and there is no mission that honors the sacrifice of our service men and women to date. Meanwhile, our government has completely ignored defense. The only acceptable mission for our military is destroying the enemy with overwhelming force, and coming home. It's incumbent that we bring our troops home and keep them here until we have a Congressional declaration of war. The endless deployments, nation building, rules of engagement and terrible treatment when they return must stop.

  • Who Are President Trump's Allies in the House of Representatives?
    The Forum 2017; 15(3): 415–429 Andrew J. Clarke* and Jeffery A. Jenkins* Who are President Trump’s Allies in the House of Representatives? https://doi.org/10.1515/for-2017-0029 Abstract: We conduct a preliminary analysis of the first 200 days of the Donald Trump presidency, to determine who his principal allies in the US House have been. We build our analysis around three groups of Republicans, based on caucus affiliations: members of the Republican Main Street Partnership (RMSP), the Republican Study Committee (RSC), and the House Freedom Caucus (HFC). We find that House Republicans, regardless off caucus membership, broadly support President Trump and largely shared in the his electoral success. Yet, we also uncover suggestive evidence that the HFC is maneuvering into a position of influ- ence with President Trump. Freedom Caucus members are more closely tied to his electoral performance than members of other conservative groups, and they appear to receive more time with the President relative to a comparable group of House Republicans. While these results are interesting, they are also initial and more time is needed to assess how President Trump builds a winning coalition with Republican House members. Introduction We are now over 200 days into the Donald Trump presidency, and Republicans are struggling to make good on their most salient campaign promises. Despite unified control of the federal government, the GOP has not been able to pass any pieces of legislation from the President’s “Contract with the American Voter.”1 Why? Political observers frequently offer a pair of related explanations.

    Unprecedented Support for the USA FREEDOM Act of 2014 (S. 2685) The USA FREEDOM Act of 2014 (2. 2685) has unprecedented bipartisan support from a broad coalition that includes the intelligence community, the technology industry, and dozens of privacy, civil liberties, and other public interest organizations. Intelligence Community In a letter to Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Patrick Leahy, Attorney General Eric Holder and Director of National Intelligence James Clapper concluded that “the Intelligence Community believes that your bill preserves the essential Intelligence Community capabilities … and … that it is a reasonable compromise that enhances privacy and civil liberties and increases transparency.” [Letter from Attorney General Eric Holder and Director of National Intelligence James Clapper to Chairman Leahy, 9/2/14] Technology Industry In an open letter to the entire Senate, Reform Government Surveillance, a group of the world’s leading technology companies that includes Aol, Apple, Dropbox, Facebook, Evernote, Google, Linkedin, Microsoft, Twitter, and Yahoo!, voiced strong support for the USA FREEDOM Act of 2014: “The Senate has an opportunity this week to vote on the bipartisan USA Freedom Act. We urge you to pass the bill, which both protects national security and reaffirms America’s commitment to the freedoms we all cherish. The legislation prevents the bulk collection of Internet metadata under various authorities. The bill also allows for transparency about government demands for user information from technology companies and assures that the appropriate oversight and accountability mechanisms are in place … Now, the Senate has the opportunity to send a strong message of change to the world and encourage other countries to adopt similar protections… We encourage you to support the USA Freedom Act.” [Reform Government Surveillance, 11/16/14] Conservative Groups A host of leading conservative groups have voiced strong support for the USA FREEDOM Act of 2014, including FreedomWorks, Liberty Coalition, Republican Liberty Caucus, and R Street.

  • POLITICAL ATTITUDES in AMERICA by Joshua Swann a Thesis
    POLITICAL ATTITUDES IN AMERICA by Joshua Swann A thesis submitted to Johns Hopkins University in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts Baltimore, Maryland December 2019 © 2019 Joshua Swann All Rights Reserved ABSTRACT This study sought to understand how political attitudes are formed and how do these attitudes affect political life in America? The author approached the research through case study to make conclusions. The study began with a hypothesis that the shaping of political attitudes is a political strategy used to threaten democracy. Chapter one found that politicians leverage messaging strategies to shape political attitudes and align the electorate; these strategies may or may not be based on facts, but rather facts as seen by the politician/political parties. Chapter two furthers an examination of how political attitudes are formed through the lens of race and identity rhetoric. The literature review, further supported by case study discovered that race continues to be used by many politicians to shape political and policy attitudes in the US; subsequently creating social divisions, instilling fear amongst voters. Chapter three looks at how political attitudes impact political life in the United States, specifically through the judiciary. This chapter demonstrates that the Supreme Court is a political institution shaped by the party affiliation of the justices. This conclusion, supported by a case study of Obergefell v. Hodges, shows that political attitudes greatly impact democracy and legislative interpretation. This thesis found that political attitudes are shaped by strategic messaging. Politicians have consistently used race to shape how voters view issues. The partisan nature of American political life is ultimately a threat to democracy, as seen through the political behavior of the judiciary.

  • The House Freedom Caucus: Extreme Faction Influence in the U.S
    The House Freedom Caucus: Extreme Faction Influence in the U.S. Congress Andrew J. Clarke∗ Lafayette College Abstract While political observers frequently attribute influence to ideological factions, politi- cal scientists have paid relatively little attention to the emergence of highly organized, extreme, sub-party institutions. In the first systematic analysis of the House Free- dom Caucus, I argue that non-centrist factions embolden lawmakers to push back against their political party by offsetting leadership resources with faction support. As a result, extreme blocs in the House of Representatives can more effectively dis- tort the party brand. To test these claims, I analyze the impact of Freedom Caucus affiliation on changes in legislative behavior and member-to-member donation pat- terns. I find that Republican lawmakers become (1) more obstructionist and (2) less reliant on party leadership donations after joining the conservative faction. These findings suggest that Freedom Caucus institutions empower lawmakers to more ag- gressively anchor the Republican Conference to conservative policy positions by off- setting the informational and financial deficits imposed by party leaders. ∗Assistant Professor, Department of Government & Law. [email protected], http://www. andrewjclarke.net 0 In 2015, the highly organized and deeply secretive House Freedom Caucus formed in the U.S. Congress. Journalists credited the faction with overthrowing the Speaker of the House, hand-packing his successor, and pushing the House Republican Conference to adopt an increasingly extreme and aggressive posture with the Obama administration — all within a year. Shortly after, Republicans won unified control of the federal government, and the Freedom Caucus quickly reasserted its role a major player in legislative affairs.
