Sam Clovis on Budget & Economy |
Clovis: Strongly Agree
Question topic: Briefly list political or legislative issues of most concern to you.
Clovis: Balanced Budget Amendment: Our current profligate spending is ruinous in nature and will saddle generations to come with burdensome debt that will continue to retard the growth of our economy. Further, a BBA will limit the influence of special interests, the most corrupting aspect of government today.
A: The less government interference we have in our market economy system, the better the lives of Americans.
"Jobs and economy," said State Senator Joni Ernst.
"Balancing the budget," answered former State Attorney Matt Whitaker.
"Grow the economy," said Dr. Sam Clovis.
With an ever growing list of Republican candidates the biggest challenge, right now, may be standing out in a crowded field. "I am certainly not the status quo, and I won't represent the status quo. The American people are sick of that, and they want real change, by real people, who will do things that will really change this country and get it back on track," Clovis said.
After the forum, the audience cast their vote in a straw poll. With 57-votes, the king of the palace Monday night was Sam Clovis. The winner of the Republican Primary will likely face Bruce Braley, the only Democrat in the race.
