2018 Annual State of the Nation Survey | Christian Seniors Association

Why Your Participation in this Survey is Important

At the end of January, President Trump will deliver his first STATE OF THE NATION ADDRESS. It will be a defense of his first year in office.

Christian Seniors Association will use this survey to give America's political leaders and the media a sample of mainstream seniors' opinion on President Trump's performance in office so far and on the expectations of senior voters entering the crucial 2018 midterm election year.

We will share the results of this poll with President Trump, his senior advisors, members of Congress and the news media.

You can be sure an enormous survey like this will receive the focused attention of America's political leaders and the media.

In addition, we will use this survey to find out what Christian seniors are registered to vote and who are not. This is important because voter participation by conservative Christians in 2018 is vital to holding off a Left-wing takeover of Congress and the impeachment of President Trump that would surely follow.

This survey is a key part of the 2018 Election Year Battle Plan CSA has proposed to make sure millions of Christian seniors who failed to vote in 2016 will vote in 2018 . . .

. . . and to mobilize those who did vote to bring at least three like-minded friends with them to vote on Election Day.

The only way CSA can fund this Battle Plan for the all-important 2018 Elections is if every CSA member contributes what he or she can. So please be sure to complete the New Member Donation Section once you have completed the upcoming Survey questions. Thank you.

Sincerely,

Jim Lafferty
Executive Director, CHRISTIAN SENIORS ASSOCIATION

QUESTION #15: Do you think the mainstream media is biased against President Trump?

Yes

No

Not Sure

If your answer is "yes," how biased is the mainstream media?

Very Biased Against Trump

Somewhat Biased

QUESTION #17: How would you describe your views on the proper role of the federal government?

I think we are heading in the wrong direction under President Trump. We need government to redistribute wealth and play a much more active role in our lives.

I subscribe more to Ronald Reagan's philosophy. We need lower taxes, less spending, and less interference by government in our lives. We'll have explosive economic growth if we can just get an over-intrusive government bureaucracy out of the way.

I believe we should go back to the original purpose of the federal government as outlined in the Constitution. If we had a federal government that actually followed the Constitution, our federal government would be about one-third the size it is now. Most governing functions should be handled by state and local government.
