Thank you for visiting my website.  Rather than giving you vague platitudes, I intend to tell you exactly how I would vote on all major issues, what legislation I desire to introduce, and what data sources I have used to reach my conclusions.  I approach running for Congress as an intellectual endeavor to propose non-ideological solutions to root problems, and I hope you will appreciate this paradigm in contrast to the content-starved marketing effort most candidates use.  Should I end up in Congress, this website provides a written record you, the voter, can use to hold me accountable.  I welcome your feedback.


  • 11 April 2008: The Daily Herald notes that the Illinois Green Party is running a record 60+ candidates in the 2008 general election.  Illinois voters have Green candidates for President, U.S. Senate, 14 of 19 U.S. House districts, numerous IL House districts (including the 53rd), and more.

  • 7 April 2008: The Green Party filed paperwork to slate me into the general election.  My thanks to the Sun-Times, Pioneer Press, and Daily Herald for letting people know.

  • 3 April 2008: The Democratic challenger's continuing misrepresentations are catching up with him.  Check out an article that ran in today's Daily Northwestern, a student publication, unambiguously titled Seals abusing his NU title.

  • 20 March 2008: My thanks to the Pioneer Press for stating my position on the Iraq occupation in this article.  For the first time, an article mentions all three candidates in the 10th district race yet gives me most of the words.

  • 31 January 2008: As reported in the Daily Herald and Pioneer Press, the Democratic challenger is taking some liberties with his resume.  Does he have integrity issues?

  • 1 October 2007: As I predicted, the Democratic Congress gave Bush another $150B to fund the Iraq occupation.  Funding the occupation is pro-occupation by definition.

  • 22 May 2007: Congratulations to the Democratic Party for having absolutely no spine.  Contrary to their previous tough talk, they announced today their intention to give Bush another "blank check" to fund the Iraq occupation until September 2007.  After September, I predict they will do it again.

  • 9 May 2007: 10th district incumbent Rep. Mark Kirk joined other House republicans today to visit the Presdient to discuss the Iraq occupation.  He seems to know that most of his constituents want the war to end, but he still votes to continue the violence.

  • 8 May 2007: According to this NPR poll, the Democratic Party continues not to represent its base voters, 55% of whom want the Democratic Congress to de-fund the Iraq occupation immediately (which they can do simply by not giving Bush anything to veto).
