He is against nation building on our expensive wars...wars where we go against to constitution and don't "declare war." He is pro constitution and civil liberties. He has a long history of voting this way to back up his consistent views. When someone asks him a question, he gives honest answers that are relavent. And he knows it's a lot of work to get the country back on it's feet, but it needs to happen quickly or it's downhill from here.

Basically, he does nothing like the other Republicans and thinks they have taken "the party down the tubes."
