Political party-Independent

Senate Member I'm most like: Senator Thomas R. Carper []

Important issues: 1. Economy. I feel that the state of our economics is in diar need of help. I feel that President Obamas bailout plan will help bring it back to normal in the years to come. 2. Education. We need to keep our schools and colleges functioning properly. This is because children are the future and without them the development of our country and the whole world is dependent on them. 3. Gun Control. Gun Control is important because without it, many Americans wouldn't be safe with all of the guns around. PLus if there are a lot of guns it might promote violence which isn't good for the youth of America.

Facts 1. Agriculture -- broilers, soybeans, corn, milk. Fishing Industry -- crabs, clams. Manufacturing -- chemicals, food products, paper products, rubber and plastics products, primary metals, printed materials. Mining -- sand and gravel, magnesium compounds. 2. 3. 4. 5.
