Retired Air Force Colonel Jeff Barnett is one of the hardest working Congressional candidates in the nation, having walked his entire (reasonably large) district in an effort to introduce himself to the citizens and voters. Just as in much of his professional career, Barnett's campaign is focused on the future -- recognizing today's challenges while offering solutions to create a stronger tomorrow.
Here is Barnett describing his ideological position:
- How would you describe yourself ideologically – "progressive," "conservative," "moderate," "liberal," or something else?
I am a Democrat. Period. Democrats believe in social justice and economic progress. These are not separate ideals; they are equal sides of the same coin. Social justice means equal opportunity, which ignites competition and creativity, which fuels economic growth, which underwrites social justice. Democrats understand that social justice and economic progress work together to fuel the American Dream. That’s why I’m a Democrat.
