Finan, Real Estate Development Age: 43. Lives in: New York, New York   Statement: "I am the CEO of NYC Consulting Group (NYCCG.com), NYCRealty.com, and have a philanthropic past, saving 600 jobs at The Plaza Hotel and facilitating 80,000 meals to Ground Zero during September 11th. I exhibit the qualities essential in being President."   Top Priorities: Less government - adhering to the Constitution and restoring the Bill of Rights. Less taxes by instituting the free market economic philosophies of Milton Friedman. More freedom - rolling back illegal presidential powers - protecting personal liberty. Dave Hollist, Candidate Since 1978 Age: 54. Lives in: Alta Loma, California   Statement: "I am the only candidate that will protect your money without taking your money. Contract Insurance is a way to finance governments. Our first revolution was Taxation Without Representation; our second should be Representation Without Taxation."   Top Priorities: Bring our troops home now. Persuade Congress to create a Contract Insurance Department to pay for our government because I will not force anyone to pay taxes. Be Commander-in-Chief for first priority. Michael P. Jingozian, Founder, CEO AngelVision Age: 46. Lives in: Sherwood, Oregon   Statement: "I have 25 years of demonstrated leadership experience in tackling tough problems and building organizations. We must replace our destructive and political two-party system by electing people of integrity and courage."   Top Priorities: End corruption, inside deals, influence peddling. Institute a democratic election process, fight for increased ballot access and ranked-choice voting. Shrink size, scope and power of government. Cancel Patriot Act and RFID Chip. Steve Kubby, Author, Speaker, Consultant Age: 60. Lives in: Fort Bragg, California   Statement: "As a co-author of California's historic medical marijuana law, I am the only candidate for President who has forced the government to recognize new rights, instead of taking more rights away from you."   Top Priorities: Immediate withdrawal from Iraq via Executive Order. Immediate end to War on Drugs via Executive Order. Restoration of the Bill of Rights and a Constitutional government. George D J Phillies, Author, Physics Professor Age: 60. Lives in: Worcester, Massachusetts   Statement: "For 40 years, I've had real jobs: author, teacher, scientist. I've cut my pay to pay staff. I'll speak the truth: torture and warrantless wiretapping are felonies. I've never run us nine trillion into debt or launched an unprovoked war."   Top Priorities: End the War; bring troops home to secure our borders. Balance budget, pay off natioanl debt, shrink government, reduce taxes. Education, energy, environment: power the Federal government with new, renewable energy. Wayne Allyn Root, Entrepreneur/Small Businessperson Age: 46. Lives in: Henderson, Nevada   Statement: "I'm a self-made S.O.B. (Son of a Butcher). I'm also the only small businessperson running for President. Small business creates a majority of America's jobs. My goal is to get government out of the way of average Americans and small businesspersons."   Top Priorities: Cut the size of government. Greatly reduce taxes and spending. States Rights: giving freedom and power back to individual Americans by putting the power in the hands of state and local governments. Christine Smith, Writer Age: 40. Lives in: Golden, Colorado   Statement: "Truth is my highest priority. I will get the federal government out of your personal and economic life; shrinking its size, power and cost so you can live as you choose in true freedom, prosperity and peace."   Top Priorities: Iraq - immediate withdrawal of U.S. troops and personnel. Pardon non-violent drug "offenders" and allow gays to serve openly by Executive Order. Abolish many federal agencies (freeing Americans from privacy intrusions and enormous taxation).
