Prefer Pence? 10 things to know about Mike Pence's policies and beliefs — and how he acted on them over the years.

1) Pence didn't want women serving in the military, he wrote in a 1999 op-ed that "Mulan" was liberal propaganda, and proof that women in the military doesn't work (referring to her love interest in another soldier).

2) In 2000, Pence wrote an op-ed in which he said "smoking doesn't kill." The article resurfaced during the 2016 election because of the claim, which Penc appeared to contradict by saying in the same op-ed, "smoking is not good for you."

3) While running for Congress in 2000, Pence wrote on his website that money funding research for HIV/AIDS should be moved to fund conversion therapy, "which provide assistance to those seeking to change their sexual behavior."

4) In 2011, Pence authored a bill to completely defund Planned Parenthood, and signaled he was willing to prompt a government shutdown over it.
