If I were president,
Many years ago, when I was five or six, a teacher told me that if I wanted, I could be president. Anyone else been told that? Well six decades later I have asked myself, could I be president in this time in American history. I have thought about being president for some time. Logically I am not a politician, have no political training, but somehow I think that my common sense and directness would be far better than the type
of political misbehavior that has and is going on in Washington. I am a conservative by nature. Feel there is a right and wrong. People should be accountable for what they produce or not produce. My father was a man of integrity and taught me to stand on my own two legs and do what has to be done. Not wait for anyone to do it for me, or ask for hand outs because I am entitled to get something. He also told me another little bit of wisdom that I have never forgotten; “he had more respect for a murder, than a liar” He was a very wise man and his words, and there were many have stuck with me.
I feel we have elected many liars. We have no integrity in our public officials. Only their personal agenda’s that have no place in making our country move forward and be the world’s shinning star.
Since I have not put my hat into the presidential race, but would like to share
what I consider would be my platform and I do promise to stay with my agenda. I would also state that I will keep my ideas as simple and direct. No hidden meanings, No written language that would confuse or cause anyone to scratch their heads in wonder. I guess that would mean not to confuse my readers. So without further adieu, my list of what I consider essential to get us moving in the right direction again.
1- A flat tax, once established the government to stay out of our pockets.
2- No imposed medical insurance. If you don’t have insurance you may pay the piper yourself.
3- The federal government will enforce all laws on immigration. Not here legally you will be sent home.
4- All states have their rights, the federal government to stay out of states business.
5- Foreign policy, support our allies. Cut founding from all who support terrorism
against us or our allies.
6- Drill our own oil and gas. Then move forward with alternative energy sources.
7- Stand down some of our government agencies. EPA, TSA, etc
8- This is a big one, term limits, 2 terms and you are out of there.
9- Another big one, all politicians get the same benefits (health care, Social Security)
After they leave office “get a job” just like the rest of us.
10- lastly, enforce the law of the land, stop trying end run around what has worked
since 1776.
