Sean Haugh: Repeal the abomination of the Patriot Act

Haugh said the Patriot Act "is a total abomination. We need to repeal that immediately," and to "abolish the [National Security Agency] and delete their files" because it crossed the line from the government "investigating you for potential criminal activities because they have a warrant to simply snooping on everybody."

D'Annunzio said the Patriot Act has been abused. It should be repealed and the Department of Homeland Security abolished. He favors keeping the NSA, but reining it in.

Sean Haugh: Stop drone warfare

Haugh's top priority if elected would be "to stop drone warfare, and be the voice of conscience on that," and deny the president's unchecked practice of using the unmanned bombers because innocent women, children, neighbors, and first responders are killed in the process, causing hatred for the United States.

"I'm not 100% against drones," D'Annunzio said. "It has to have a justified reason."
