Restrict immigration; support CA Prop. 187
Foster, an African-American, is an advocate of restricting immigration, writing that immigrants threaten black workers' jobs.

On Civil Rights:
Confederate battle flag should be honored
Foster founded Americans for Family Values, which calls for the restoration of traditional morals; and she said Friday that the Confederate battle flag "should be honored as part of our history."
"We have been called bigoted and racist and all kinds of names," she said. "Why? Because we are concerned about our American children and our American schools. We are concerned about our American workers."

On Education:
Schools are failing; need more money & less government
"For all children, the schools are failing, not because there's not enough money, but because there's too much government involvement," Foster said, making it almost immediately clear that education issues will be chief among her concerns in the fall.
