Candidate's Response... I will post my answer here:
Hi I have a lot of questions. The 1st one is are you going to go out of the race? Obama clinched it as you know.If you do stay in it are you going to stay a dem? I read you also ran in 1988, 1992, 2000, and 2004. What did you do {or what will you do} to make this time different? What do you think your chances are. I hope you stay in because you are the only candidate I agree with on all the issues{ I looked at almost every candidate on project vote smart, their are a lot of candidates}. If you do stay in you should maybe make a youtube, myspace facebook or all 3. Thank You!

Candidate: I clearly understand why I am running for President, and I understand that we all have the right to share our opinions.
Why isn't your name not on the ballot?
Candidate: I apologize, for I was not able to raise the funds necessary to qualify for the ballot. Thanks, Willie Felix Carter
Why doesn't death penalty give second chances?
Candidate: There are many cases where the second chance does not apply; the victim of a murderer does not have a second chance. I believe that the main purpose for the death penalty is to deter the crime of murder, and when administered justly, will have an enormous effect on anyone contemplating taking the life of an innocent person. I believe that when evidence is presented to the contrary, there should be a proper way to exonerate a person convicted to die.
Where do you stand on the ""Death with Dignity"" subject?","Submit
Candidate: As a Christian, I believe that death other than through natural process is against the teachings of Jesus Christ, that death is to be honorable transferring a spirit into eternity. There are many cases when a person is healthy and because of the loss of interest in living, prefer to die, sometimes leading to suicide. I believe in Death with dignity naturally, with the comfort of friends. Jesus, while dying, spoke comforting words to his servant John to see about his mother, (Jesus Mother). It is interesting how close one can become to a dying friend.
you know you blak ass won't stand a chance of being elected...you are a bible-thumping sob and you know you won't get elected go back and shine my shoos and stop riding greyhound to try to get votes you loser","Submit"
Candidate: I am saying a prayer for you, what you have shared is very rude.
Shelly, Houston, TX My question for Mr. Cater is regarding the gross federal debt. The gross federal debt is increasing at an alarming rate and I want to find out what steps would you take as President to lower the national debt? How difficult would it be to make the necessary adjustments to help lower the debt?
Candidate: Adjusting the national debt requires commitment, and I am willing to make that commitment. Much of the burden on the national debt is our involvement in the Iraq war, which I plan to bring to an honorable closure within eight months after I am elected President. There will be other adjustments necessary to decrease the debt. I plan to work with Congress to reduce the debt considerably, and within my administration to balance the budget, making sure to not cause undue hardship on the recipients of many programs financed by our government. To some programs we may have to decrease or terminate. The American people deserves the best attention be given to fairness managing the nation's resources.
Candidate: Thanks for your interest in this campaign, and my run for President. I understand that we have a deficit problem, and I would like to relate it to the common citizen's debt to income ratio. Sometimes we over spend and realize afterwards that maybe that was the wrong thing to do. I believe that proper planning and prioritizing are necessary for balancing any budget, and as your President I will work with the Congress to plan our spending taking into account our National Security cost, and other needful programs keeping our nation afloat, making a more friendly business environment giving business the latitude to grow without unnecessary government paperwork, (a more business friendly environment). I believe that a healthy business environment is crucial to the financial growth of our nation, creating more business opportunities which in essence creates more taxable income from those employed by business growth, which can be used to both lower taxes and balance the budget. There are pains that go along with balancing any budget, and I am willing to help the American People go through those changes with the greatest ease.

Dear Willie F. Carter, I am a new voter and I am concern what will happen with the social security trust fund when it¢s my time to retire, probably 35 years from now, say 2055. Do you think that the current deficit and the rate that it is increasing would it be considered that we are in a crisis situation? If elected, would you handle this problem in thoroughly or would you consider it just a phase during our economic situation? Thank You

Houston, TX
Candidate: I am aware of the social security shortage that we face, and you can be sure that I will take the necessary steps to preserve it for the future. Our national debt can be brought under control with some adjustments in our spending habits. As we wind down the war in Iraq we will see much that can be applied to the programs now in need of attention, social security being one of those concerns.
Candidate: Social Security: We will need to make adjustments to insure the longevity of social security, possibly gradually increasing the amounts of contributions, and adjusting the time frame of the recipients. The primary intent is to provide insurance for income, when some one is unable to provide for those necessities. We must insure that the cost to our fellow citizens is fair, and certainly I hope and plan to work with Congress to insure that Social Security is intact for the future.
I chose you as the candidate to do a research paper on for school. I am interested in your opinion and any changes you would make on a few topics: abortion, embryonic stem cell research, the death penalty, health care reform, homeland security, social security, tax cuts, same sex marriage, and the economy? Also, in an earlier comment about bringing troops home in 6-8 months, how do you plan on bringing them home?
Candidate: I believe that abortion is a way of reducing the value of life for two valuable individuals, and will not support it, except in the case where the mother's life is in danger, let her make the decision.
Embryonic stem cell research, the process of involving the conceived element of birth, is improper and involves only one part of the equation, physical, and does not take into account the spiritual aspect of life, and for that reason, I will not support the process. I believe that both physical and spiritual qualities are implanted at conception.
The death penalty is an important tool to answer the problem of premeditated murder, and when doubt arises concerning witness testimony, the execution should not be carried out. I believe that at least two witnesses should testify to impose the death penalty.
Healthcare is certainly needed, and in order to really have affordable healthcare, it is important to seriously examine the parties involved, the needed client and the provider, making sure that we as a nation do not go into the business of healthcare, creating greater strain on a government yet suffering from the cost of the present wars and the increased cost of national security. I believe that the main purpose for the short term should be to provide a kind of assistance to those unable to afford such care.
Social security should not be privatized, looking at the volatile atmosphere in the investment community, sends a signal of what could happen to social security once privatized. We will need to make adjustments to insure the longevity of social security, possibly gradually increasing the amounts of contributions, and adjusting the time frame of the recipients. The primary intent is to provide insurance for income, when some one is unable to provide for those necessities. We must insure that the cost to our fellow citizens is fair.
Taxes: I would like to lower the taxes, and I plan to do so, but we need to prioritize to make sure that when taxes are lowered, that we do not increase the national debt. I plan to drastically reduce the national debt over the term of my administration, considering ways to reduce taxes, and to implement a fairer and simplified tax.
Same sex marriage, I will not support, it is forbidden in the Holy Scriptures, and I believe in God, and that the bible is the true word of God.
Economy: I believe that as we make adjustments in national spending to be more in line with our nation's income we will see a much better economy, and I will call upon all of the citizens to do their fair part in helping to rescue our nation's up and down economic swings that have caused many foreclosures, bankruptcy proceedings, business failures, which if given the proper support could all have possibly remained viable contributors to the growth of our nation's economy. I will call upon the American people to help revive our economy, knowing that our economy has much to do with our positioning in the world market community, we can not let our nation become hostage economically to any other nation.
Troops: Bringing our troops home will be one of my priorities, and I know that it will take good diplomacy, working with our military leaders, and our allies to properly disengage from the Iraq war, but I plan to meet with advisors, both civilians and military, and I am sure that we can come up with a plan to bring our troops home within the eight month time frame that I announced.
Higher Education: would like to propose that the cost of college be completely tax deductible and would appreciate your commentary.
Statement: We used to be a government by the people and for the people. This is the solitary act of a king. I would be greatly interested in knowing your opinion on the Amero and the SPP. It will greatly affect my vote in the upcoming election. If you are for it, fine. If you are against it, I ask you to speak up. Right now we are in political turmoil in this country. We need a leader that will give us back our nation. If you are against it, tell the voters. Bring this issue to light. It may just be the most important issue that no one's heard of. Let us know who we can vote for, who will honestly be a leader and not a monarch. Winchester, NH.
Candidate: I believe that the very existence of our nation hinges upon protection of Divine providence, and I will not support any initiative that will undermine our nation's trust in God. There is a way to do business with other nations, with out political ties that undermine our independence.
Question: So how do you propose to overcome the money battle to achieve even the goal of changing the debate? Even a Kucinich or Gravel who don't have a prayer of winning have sufficient grass roots support to finance their efforts. Do you?
Candidate: I trust the Lord, to both, help me financially, and to help me to win the election to be the next President of the United States of America '2008.
Question: Hello! I love that you love us all:-) What makes you a better candidate than your opponents? "," Submit","
Candidate: I am a man of compassion, which I believe is reflected in my concerns posted on this website, I work with the homeless, I am concerned about the lives of our senior citizens, the lives of our soldiers, having served honorably for a total of twenty-eight years.
