On this episode of The Open Door, panelists Jim Hanink, Mario Ramos-Reyes, and Valerie Niemeyer discuss the politics of the presidency and vice presidency. November, and with it the national election, is not so far off. The Biden vs. Trump rematch is officially scheduled. Here at The Open Door we want to think outside the duopoly’s binary box. That means checking in on the candidates of the American Solidarity Party. Our returning and welcome guest is Mr. Peter Sonski. A New England native, Peter and his wife have nine adult children. He has a Master of Science in Management (MSM) degree from The Catholic University of America. His professional experience is in journalism, public relations, and business administration. Peter is concluding his second term as an elected member of Connecticut’s Regional School District 17 board of education. He’ll have lots to tell us about his presidential campaign. Among the questions we will ask are the following. 
What does it mean to you to be “pro-life” as a candidate for the President of the United States?
How has your experience in local politics informed your approach to this campaign?
They say behind every good man is an even better woman. How has your wife made you a stronger man and better candidate?
How does your running mate, Lauren Onak, bring strength to your campaign?
Has your campaign experience changed your perspective on what it means to be a citizen?
Have you any new insights into “the system” of politics in America?
Which of your stances as a candidate are you finding the most support for? The most push-back against?
Any thoughts on Christian Democracy and how it may or may not be finding a place in American politics?
How has your faith life been impacted by this adventure, if it’s not too personal a question?
How can folks support your campaign in an effort to bring light to the darkness of our political reality in America?
