I'm a Conservative what?

I don't know what to call myself anymore. Saying that I'm disgusted with all political parties is no big surprise in today's political climate. Dems are so far left that I can't feel comfortable there. I'm pro-life (opposed to abortion, capital punishment and most of our wars) and pro-traditional marriage.

I believe in registration of all aliens entering our borders, but in immediate deportation or jailing of criminals only. Give current resident aliens ID numbers as foreign workers but no Social Security benefits until they become citizens. They would use these ID numbers for employment and taxation purposes by federal, state, and local govenments as well as setting up private retirement accounts. Citizens are entitled to the benefits of citizenship, but non-citizens are not.

Building a fence along our entire Southern border is an incredible waste of money. What about using returning service members as border guards, especially those areas that have drug traffickers crossing so easily? We need to protect all our borders from harmful invaders.

I insist on English being our primary language for all legal transactions, including schools and government. In other words, I don't want to feel like a foreigner in my own country.
