John Cox is by far the most conservative Christian choice for all Republicans.
Abolishing the IRS & death tax, replacing with the Fairtax AND Reaganomics are the cornerstones of his campaign.
Cox supports the war on terror BUT has a different strategy for winning the war that this current administration continues to ignore.
Another example issue you won’t hear much about from other candidates, ending the big money pot for incumbents paid for by our tax dollars, ending the easy life for career politicians. We should have equal opportunities for fund raising for all candidates, no unfair advantages just for the incumbents.
I am sure you are the best man for the job, because you have overcome a very tough start in life to realize your success. I to was raised by a single mom. What do you think was her biggest influence on you? I also belive in your postion on the IRS, can you explain why your way of funding government would be fairer for all of Americas people?

Mr. Cox, Thanks for giving conservatives a candidate we can support and be proud of. How will you manage to overcome the media bias and let the rest of the nation know you’re here to help? I’ll do my part.
I appreciate the way you have run your campaign so far and not accepting contributions by corporations that own so many of the candidates in the palm of their hand right now. Are their any grassroots organizations out there publicly or privately endorsing you?
John, true Americans in large numbers around the country are responding to your message. I was a sound supporter of GW in the past two elections but one thing irks me. In my opinion he never stopped running for office. Even after winning he looked for approval and never spoke with a “Presidential” voice. How will you handle the presidency? Are you of the opinion that when you win you govern regardless of the size of the mandate?
Thanks for running so hard on the conservative issues. We need people standing up for what’s right. You talk a lot in this campaign about the need to have statesmen and not politicians. What current elected officials are examples to you of statesmen v. politicians and why?
Mr. Cox,
Please explain how your conservative beliefs differ from the beliefs of other candidates who also say they are conservatives. What in your extensive background will demonstrate how you conducted business and your political life with the principles of conservatism? Can you cite examples of decisions made, speeches or similar events?
WOW! It is refreshing to finally have a true Conservative that believes in EVERYTHING that I do! John Cox, we support you!!
The founders of our country—signers of the Declaration of Independence and framers of our Constitution, were Statesmen who spent their own money to attend the Congresses and took their attention from their farms and businesses in order to serve their country. Your message about our needing Statesmen and not Politicians has struck a longing in the hearts of all (non-politician) Americans, no matter what their political persuasion. It seems hopeless that we can ever get back to our natioin being run by statesmen who do the right thing for our future instead of politicians who do whatever expedient thing it takes to ensure their reelections and the donations they need/want. What can a President of the United States do (and what of these will you do when elected) to get our nation back to its roots of liberty, service, family, sacrifice, and character—a nation led by statesmen (and stateswomen) who do the right thing for our nation and its future, no matter what sacrifices must be made?
I hate to sound like a college kid, but I am curious to know which candidates have smoked pot during their lifetimes. New statistics point out that roughly 80% of Americans admit to having smoked pot at one point in their lives. Have you ever smoked marijuana? How do you think the fact that 80% of this country has admitted to having smoked weed should influence America’s drug laws, and the “war on drugs?”
It’s great to see a candidate stand so strongly for passage and implementation of H.R.25, The Fair Tax. We already know that this legislation will fully untax the poor and reverse the current trend of manufacturing jobs leaving the U.S. My question is since this legislation fully funds Social Security by broadening the tax base to everyone in this country whether visiting, a citizen, or illegally, but what future plans do you have for overhauling the system itself?
As many millions of Conservatives have become continually disenfranchised with the ingrained powers that be in the GOP we have waited for someone who is truly not a Washington insider. Someone who will have the guts to stand up to the liberal media and take a stand that is for the best of the country, even if it might mean a politically unpopular decision. The man we have waited for is John Cox. He’s not a politician who can easily dismiss deficit spending, he’s a business man who knows what the end result of deficit spending is. He is a breath of fresh air that is needed in the stale atmosphere that is D.C.
“no taxation with out resporation”..end the death tax”..I like it..Carl in Albany
[...] Central recently sat down with Republican presidential contender John Cox for an exclusive [...]
John Cox is an interesting guy, but his campaign is going nowhere fast. He’s raised less than $13,000 in 17 months of campaigning. Yes, that’s thirteen THOUSAND, not a typo.
It’s great that people agree with him on a couple of issues, but that’s not enough to defeat Hillary Clinton.
