Dr. James G. Hanink for Governor 2021

Once upon a time I received a Ph.D. in philosophy from Michigan State University. I wrote my dissertation--Persons, Rights, and the Problem of Abortion--under the direction of Rhoda Kotzin. From 1976 until 2015, I taught at Loyola Marymount University in Los Angeles. At last, though, I have become an independent scholar! Wage slave or not, my custom is to reflect on the words of G. K. Chesterton, "Angels fly because they take themselves lightly."

Dr. James G. Hanink is the 2021 candidate for California governor who supports the common good by finding common ground across California’s diverse citizenry, and using common sense. He is a member of the American Solidarity Party but is running in the gubernatorial race as an independent. Dr. Hanink is pro-life, pro-family, pro-marriage, and supports freedom of religion from needless government intrusion. He is for social justice, pro-community, pro-human-dignity, pro-environment, and pro-peace. Last but not least, he supports localized government where communities can decide for themselves instead of being forced to accept state or federal values and decisions.
