"I need to define as clearly and succinctly as possible the worldview which forms my conclusions. I am an evangelical Christian with a very firmly fixed and high regard for the preciousness of life or in faith terms, the sanctity of life; that all human life is created in the image of God. This belief is the foundation to my decision process, within the limits of one who sometimes fails to live up to that standard.

"Therefore, I did not find either major candidate to be a satisfactory choice for POTUS. Clinton because of her support for murder on demand, whether of the unborn or those approaching the end of life. Trump's disregard of the same credo is exemplified by his stance on immigration and other issues.

"I have not found anything in the First 100 to make me doubt the validity of my decision process. I am thankful that President Trump's unfamiliarity with the political process has worked as a tanglefoot to impede some of his wilder notions."
