George Allen in Manassas for Super Tuesday

U.S. Senate candidate George Allen was in the Manassas Park-area Tuesday and stopped by a voting precinct in Manassas, but he wouldn't endorse one of the two candidates on the ballot.

Wearing an "I voted" sticker would only say that he supports the candidate who "runs strongest in Virginia" and has a similar approach to

Allen was visiting voters at Jennie Dean Elementary School voting precinct on Super Tuesday, where he spoke with Manassas Mayor Harry J. Hal Parrish and voters, among others. He placed a bumper sticker on the car of a Manassas voter and veteran, and said when it comes to jobs for veterans, "the focus should not just be for the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs."

Allen said the government is not meeting its goal of supplying 3 percent of contract work to the service-disabled veteran-owned small businesses.

"That will help with jobs right there," Allen said. "It's happening to other small businesses, too."

Allen said he doesn't think people are satisfied with the current economy. His plan calls for "focusing on educating and training Americans to compete for and succeed in the good-paying, high skill, high knowledge jobs of the 21st century."

"It all comes back to jobs," Allen said.

According to his plan, "the key to America's growth is reducing the U.S. tax on job-creating businesses." His plan says the move will attract new investment and create more than five million more jobs over the next 10 years. Allen said the high gas prices continue to hit middle- and lower-income families the hardest and he would support the Keystone Pipeline and drilling off the east coast as a means to increase supply. 

Allen also touts "unleashing America's plentiful energy resources" in the American Energy Freedom Act as a way to create jobs and revenue for Virginia.

When it comes to over-reaching and over-spending by the federal government, Allen said the needless government spending needs to be reigned in. He supports a protection that limits spending to 19 percent of the Gross Domestic Product. The plan would also "reverse the excesses of the current administration," such as Obama's healthcare initiative and replace it with affordable and personal healthcare opportunities. Allen said the Prince William County area would benefit from having less government involved in the foreclosure crisis and more private lenders helping people stay in their homes.
