| Interview |
| s-3
| What qualifications do you have that will assist you in executing the duties of president? |
| s-4
| My Presidential qualifications are rooted in my service as an Officer in the United States Air Force. |
| s-5
| I took the Oath to our Constitution at 22 years old. |
| s-6
| I understood it was an Oath to ALL of our people. |
| s-7
| Politicians profess an Oath to this nation but once in office pursue their party agenda and reward their voters. |
| s-8
| As President, I will serve ALL of the people in America, guided by the Constitution. |
| s-9
| Why run for president? |
| s-10
| Why not run for a lower office that you would be more likely to win and effect change? |
| s-11
| When I was a young man in Air Force ROTC I was chosen to attend a unique Pilot Training Program called Euro- NATO Joint Jet Pilot Training. |
| s-12
| The Air Force only selected 180 Officers a year from the Academy, Squadron Officer School and ROTC to attend. |
| s-13
| I volunteered for that program because I knew I wanted to be a Fighter Pilot and at the 'Top of the Spear.' |
| s-14
| In those days it was all or nothing. |
| s-15
| If you graduated you were assigned a fighter, if you were not quite fighter pilot material you had no response to fly another aircraft, you were washed out. |
| s-16
| Congress has proven itself ineffective as a body. |
| s-17
| To make a difference in America you must have the 'Bully Pulpit' and speak to the People. |
| s-18
| The President has that pulpit. |
| s-19
| All or nothing. |
| s-20
| I never wanted to make politics a career. |
| s-21
| Why did you choose to run in the Republican Party? |
| s-22
| My ties to the Republican party date back to 1979, when I volunteered for Ronald Reagan and his campaign in New Hampshire. |
| s-23
| In those days I believed there was a difference in the parties. |
| s-24
| Today, like many Americans, I am skeptical. |
| s-25
| I understand third party candidates have no success. |
| s-26
| I hope to lead the Republican party in a new direction for working class Americans. |
| s-27
| How do you plan to get into the Republican debates and make an impact on polls? |
| s-28
| In order to be invited to the debates, we must raise money and poll nationally. |
| s-29
| This is an effort that is underway. |
| s-30
| Recently we were listed in New Hampshire and nationally with Politics1. |
| s-31
| If you do not receive the Republican nomination, would you consider running as a third party candidate? |
| s-32
| No, I will back the nominee of the Republican party in 2016. |
| s-33
| After that, I may reconsider. |
| s-34
| Other than yourself, which candidates have you supported for president in previous campaigns? |
| s-35
| Reagan in 80 and 84, [George H. W.] Bush in 88 and 92, [Phil] Gramm in 96, [George W.] Bush in 2000 and, Romney in 08. |
| s-36
| What are your thoughts on the job Barack Obama has done as president? |
| s-37
| Specifically, what would you have done differently? |
| s-38
| President Obama has an agenda that represents the far left wing of his party. |
| s-39
| His use of the Presidency to further this agenda has in many ways been unconstitutional. |
| s-40
| Specifically, altering law once it is passed to accommodate his voting blocs. |
| s-41
| His direction to Eric Holder to enforce some laws and not others is another example. |
| s-42
| Hill at the Lesser-known candidates forum in 2011 |
| s-43
| If elected, what would constitute a successful presidency for you? |
| s-44
| Achieving four goals: |
| s-45
| Term Limits for Congress and the Courts returning government to the People. |
| s-46
| Implementing a Tax System that allows working Americans making under $ 250,000 to keep all of their money. |
| s-47
| Closing Loopholes and putting in place a system that is transparent and works. |
| s-48
| Passing a Living Wage program lifting people out of poverty. |
| s-49
| Returning America to a state of Peace and Security. |
| s-50
| What individuals would you like to see in a Hill administration? |
| s-51
| I would like to bring People from the heartland of America that make this nation work. |
| s-52
| We have had too many decades of Ivy League elites and Professors immersed in theory. |
| s-53
| Hill (right) with fellow 2012 presidential candidate Buddy Roemer. |
| s-54
| Anything else you would like to add? |
| s-55
| A final thought. |
| s-56
| America is a nation that will endure. |
| s-57
| I believe it is our responsibility to pass on the same opportunities to future generations that were promised to us. |
| s-58
| As President, I intend to keep that promise! |
