    1. Where do you stand on the "right to life" or the "free choice" debate?

I wholly believe in a women's right to choice. I don't think that a person should be forced to have a child if they don't want one. I was nearly aborted because I was a result of teenage pregnancy, so it's hard to still be of the opinion that choice trumps.

    2. Where do you stand on capital punishment?

No. Too many innocent people are sentenced to death. Capital punishment is a magnification of the problem with our justice system, that is that it revolves around punishment and not rehabilitation. I am absolutely against capital punishment, trading one crime for another doesn't help anybody.
