"The other major issue is accountability in government spending. The Federal government is taking more money in, but it is not being spent wisely and with accountability. I support giving the president the line item veto, which is an old idea of President Reagan’s. I used it as Governor of Virginia with great effect. That way, instead of only 11 of us voting for that bridge to nowhere in Alaska, the president can veto non-essential items. We have to spend money more wisely and focus on important things like national defense and education.
