Who are you? Tell us about yourself.
As a native Southwest Missouri resident who was locally educated at College of the Ozarks in Elementary Education & Dietetics, I've been trained &/or employed in multiple avenues for employment including hospitals, schools, nursing homes, outpatient clinics, & pediatric home health/ adaptive physical education departments. This broad availability of employment arenas has allowed for me to understand where citizens are still being abused by their own government offices particularly on a localized level. Residing in one of the hottest tourism areas of the Midwest possessing the most theaters in the country to even outnumber Las Vegas, I've seen where the stage can be a distraction from coping with the most critical areas of our Nation, State, & local community allowing for dire situational crisis to be overlooked. As a profound defender of the Judeo-Christian faith, human rights, & individualized Constitutional defense, I've self-studied law & real estate with the intent to utilize my time to press against the continual battle that the court system has created & the local press has buried due to lack of exposure.
Please list below 3 key messages of your campaign. What are the main points you want voters to remember about your goals for your time in office?
- 'The Right To Mom' is the new 'Right To Vote.' The female suffragists are rising up once again with the intent to surface the Voice of the Woman & her defense of her children. Organized male political domination has propelled a deep suffering upon the Missouri citizen as this would be the first Female to be elected as Governess of Missouri if chosen.
- Medical & Civil Rights attorneys should replace Family law. As the newly elected Governess, my intent is to enforce the law that is being neglected such as strongly reinforcing the newly passed Missouri legislation - No Patient Left Isolated - which disallows communication/ visitation shutdown between family & their loved ones being used as a patient. Patient care centers (of any kind) are not meant to be High Security Prison Lockdown Centers of any sort or shape. The current mentality & protocol presses for children & the elderly in particular to be subject to Cruel & Unusual Punishment just for being old or in one's youth. This scenario of abuse has to end yet will not occur with the current list of traditional candidates.
- My campaign slogan is "Gold Again," as my main humanitarian mission is to END IHT (institutional human trafficking) of nursing home, forced medical procedures, mental wards, & estrangement of foster care. The last years of life should be years of bliss, family memories, bucket list completion, friendships rekindled, & spiritual devotion to our Creator in gratitude for the years lived. As we prepare for the Afterlife, our focus should be on having our assets estabilshed for financial gain & transfer to our own family members NOT for the government to step in a overhaul all of our decades of hard labor into the pockets of the State Treasury & their own kinship of thieves.
What areas of public policy are you personally passionate about?
Securing school safety (as an educator protector & child advocate), Derailing inflation (finding new protocols that allow for price gouging measures to be placed on products of critical need & more), Immigration reform (establishing new relationships with our neighboring countries which allows for U.S. citizens to utilize & assist foreign natural resources to flourish & thus creating a more suitable environment for foreign countries' citizens to remain within, Ending IHT (institutional human trafficking) by enforcing freedom rights to include establishing enforcement of citizen communication to remain in place with family/friends/ & their community unrestricted; applying a ban on 'Jim Crowe laws against the mentally labeled & elderly.
Who do you look up to? Whose example would you like to follow, and why?
Mother Teresa & the Queen Mother Elizabeth of England who served their positions in respect to their Creator & due diligent compassion as the hands & feet of integrity upon their citizens.
Is there a book, essay, film, or something else you would recommend to someone who wants to understand your political philosophy?
There are two books "Escaping the Facade of Freedom" & "The Martyred Madonna" I have written under the ghost name Elizabeth Heidelsen in totally different styles of presentation that explicitly entail the various aspects of concern regarding the two forms of genocide the Nation has encountered : the genocide of govt murdering its own citizens & the genocide of child thieving.
Each of these circumstantially covers the topic of ending IHT (institutional human trafficking).
What characteristics or principles are most important for an elected official?
Honesty, integrity, humility, yet most importantly the Diamond of the morale crown - Compassion. Being able to create resolutions for chronic & acute issues that arise with genuine concern & diligence. Having a willingness to allow for all sides of an issue being addressed to be presented in order to bring justice & the best possible solution to the table.
What qualities do you possess that you believe would make you a successful officeholder?
Honesty, integrity, ethical application of intelligence, humility, & most of the the Morale Diadem's choice stone - The Diamond of Compassion
What do you believe are the core responsibilities for someone elected to this office?
Protecting the Voiceless of the State, exposing the Corruption on the Deepest levels, combatting the Press's lack of exposure of citizen abuses by govt forces, & creating a cooperative relation with the Capitol & the Governess' office for the most effective resolutive effort.
What legacy would you like to leave?
The Right to Mom suffragism motto to all people to defend their citizenship right to parenthood & access to family as a right not a privilege. As I've quoted as Elizabeth Heidelsen "Motherhood is a right, not a privilege."
What is the first historical event that happened in your lifetime that you remember? How old were you at the time?
The 9-11 event of the World Trade Center hit not once but twice. I watched with a family member as the NYC trades towers were bombed.
What was your very first job? How long did you have it?
Actress at the Passion Play called "Love's Greatest Story" in Branson, MO. I was only 11 years old & played the Bride at the Wedding of Canaan carried up the hill in a two person litter with the groom & was 'married' every night with a wine toast.
What is your favorite book? Why?
"The Martyred Madonna" because of its effort to end femicide in the United States along with various listings of actual legislation that altered the conscience of the Church & destroyed the fellowship of the working class American family. This civil rights literature piece intertwines creative imagery poetry within its text while striking at the core root of Missouri & each State's family law destructive force of Federal funding.
If you could be any fictional character, who would you want to be?
Wonderwoman. Bringing all of the lockdown victims out of the nursing homes, mental wards, & forced foster care estranged from family so that they can be freed from abuses of communication isolation, denial of outdoors access, denial to public spaces, denial to freedom of choice, denial of the right to refuse medication, & denial of the right to private living conditions near loved ones & pets.
What was the last song that got stuck in your head?
Of course, my own Wild Horse song reminding us of how difficult the Road of Life can be although we can accomplish far more by taking on a sense of adventure to overcome cumbersome, bumpy roads with no alternatives.
What is something that has been a struggle in your life?
Trying to uphold my own dignity & direction when being politically isolated & condoned by the courts of SW Missouri for having had a child out of wedlock whereas I would have had no family at all considering my surrounding demographics of male homosexuals & misogynists made it extremely difficult to find a mate.
A governor is the top executive authority in his or her state. What does that mean do you?
The governor's aim is to work with the FBI, other governors, & organizations for exposing corruption & proceeding to remedy injustice, pardon prisoners, press for victim compensation, fire/rehire department heads, & press to identify department employees who are of fraudulent nature.
Governors have many responsibilities, which vary from state to state. Which of those do you personally consider the most important in your state?
During Covid, the gubernatorial position is key to being able to calm the storm in a crisis & open the doors to communicate with the Press emergency relief efforts, condolences of tragedy, & opinions on current topics of the political press; however, the most imperative are to be again ending the patterns of injustice restoring victims to prosperity economically, emotionally, & politically, & enforcing the Capitol's legislation is used to end citizen oppression. The governess is a principal of sorts ensuring that the Bullies of the State are not overlooked & don't go unpunished.
Different states require governors to have different degrees of responsibility for the state budgeting process. If it were your choice, what do you believe is the appropriate degree of gubernatorial involvement with this process in your state?
Again, the Press has hid the deep corruption of several disbursements in the State particularly to Social Services where there is little to no accountability. Currently, there is no action of response that occurs if a victim of Medicare fraud is reported in many instances. There are next to zero attorneys that will back up citizens who are victimized with courts seizing their property of which the attorneys used to steal the property were Federally funded under the State Senator's loose disbursement. Reform of financial Federal funding disbursements should be just the beginning in order to create an accountabilty pathway.
In most states, governors have the power to make line-item vetoes. If that is true in your state, what would be your philosophy for how and when to use this power?
As needed. In most circumstances, legislation could be adjusted to make the citizen remain free & unoppressed by govt laws. I promise that I would do everything within my power to ensure that even Federal laws of questionable circumstance won't be able to break Constitutional rights. As a teacher, the ABC (anti-bullying campaign) protocols would benefit the structure of the govt in Missouri all the way up to the Missouri Supreme Court & the DHHS office. Neither of these establishments should ever overturn a citizen's hard work, their property & built structures whether business or residential, Creator- endowed talents including intellectual property rights, or the fruition of their familial relations - their children & grandchildren.
What do you believe is the ideal relationship between the governor and state legislature?
A hand-in-hand relation should exist between the Governor & their affiliated State legislature as the Capitol creates the laws & the Governing officials provide legal enforcement.
What do you love most about your state?
Missouri is a unique state of immigrant aristocratic merchants & rural homesteaders who value the sacred gift of intelligence & democracy. This Great State has utilized its own natural beauty & history of Ozarkian Plateau treasures to enable tourism to thrive. It's won not one, but two National Football League Superbowls creating an abundance of income for its own Kansas City youth athletes while remaining an international symbol via the Saint Louis arch built along the Mississippi River / Illinois border.
What do you perceive to be your state's greatest challenges over the next decade?
Over the next decade, inflation will persist to be one of the greatest challenges this State will face unless the government spokespersons guide the udder of the ship in a total opposite direction making housing taxes & product pricing to be of affordable budget acceptance. Migrant immigration overtaking our workforce & increasing crime in the safest portions of the State. Drugs, economic instability, & an increase in poverty-induced criminals. The Capitol needs to address how to remedy economic boost in its State not eradicating the Poor from street corners solely via false arrest ^&/or criminal trespassing charges into a four year Prison sentence.
Tell us your favorite joke.
not my favorite, but here's an ear piece. What did the Republican RHINO state in public debate when asked for his defined protocol for liberty as the Nation was suffering from an economic inflation crisis. "Liberty isn't earned, it's paid for." The Democrat shook his head & said "Absolutely not, Social Services ensures it's given." Then, the Libertarian looks once more at the other candidates & states "It's negotiated." Lastly, a true Republican in the audience cries out "It's fought for!" with an Eagle heard screaming in the midst as the crowd stands up & roars. The debate organizer looks again at his paper, shakes his head, & says "If it wasn't for the voice of the American & its Bald Eagle scream, I guess we'll all be nesting in the forest instead of accomplishing the American dream." The RHINO trying to re-establish his presence speaks up, "But Wealth of the Supremacist is the name of the game." & the Democrat starts crying tears stating "We can't help it we gave all of those jobs & free houses to Mexican immigrants." & the Libertarian lastly blinks twice in shock stating "I guess we can go home now since I won the debate since you all are still negotiating why you're still eligible for office. ///This isn't a joke, but written to point out how the entire candidate list in place is lacking true Republicans who desire liberty, economic freedom, dignified living, & respect for all persons. Sometimes in debates, the only true Constitutional defenders of Equality are in the crowd.
Under what circumstances should the governor of your state be able to use emergency powers?
In the event of a natural disaster, a riotous outburst,. etc.
What organizations or individuals have endorsed your campaign?
My own grassroots organization which is no longer a non-profit for the reason of being able to endorse candidates - Civil Defense Coalition.
What are your views on financial transparency and government accountability?
The associated press in local communities has not been exposing the corrupt Federal funneling of money into asset forfeiture & child thieving which should be exposed in individualized stories & community outreach efforts.
