We would like to go back to that situation that we had for 200-plus years where our public and private life was based on traditional Judeo-Christian morality.

Rapp. News: Do you consider yourself a religious person, and do your public policy notions follow from a particular religious doctrine?

Viguerie: I am a Christian. My wife and I are practicing Catholics, and I was bom and raised a Catholic. The most important thing in my life is to know the will of God, to do the will of God. I try to model my life as much as I possibly can after the teachings of Christ, and I try to be the best Christian that I can. I’ll leave it to others to evaluate how good a job I do at that.

Rapp. News: What are your political ambitions? Do you seek higher of-, fice?

Viguerie: I am a person who has dedicated his life to trying to change things, trying to improve things. I think that there are a lot of problems in this world, and I’m concerned about these problems that affect our people. I’ve dedicated my life to trying to improve the quality of life that we have, and towards that end I want to serve the citizens of the Commonwealth. I’m not sure what direction that might take. If I am fortunate enough to be elected lieutenant governor, I might seek additional office later, maybe appointed office. But I’m going to be involved in trying to improve things for the rest of my active life. Having taken this first plunge into elective office, I have a feeling I’m going to be active in elective politics for some time.
