The pro-life OB-GYN originally from California quoted and cited Bible verses and Founding Fathers and claimed Sen. Jesse Helms, longtime Republican stalwart who represented this state for five terms in the Senate from 1973 until 2003, as part of the lure that drew him to this state and an example of what he would represent in Washington.
“He was the one I most identified with,” Dr. Brannon said of the late senator from Monroe. “Senator No.”
Dr. Brannon said the “Republican values of Reagan, Goldwater, Coolidge and Taft are worth fighting for,” adding that there can be no compromise on issues of state sovereignty and individual freedom. President Barack Obama’s health care reforms and federal educational mandates violate those principles, he said.
Common Core, ObamaCare, these things are an anathema to what America is all about,” Dr. Brannon said.
