80+ million supposedly voted for a politician that had no one attend rallies on the few occasions he left his basement. I’m betting most of them are still asleep, of course who knows how many were already permanently resting when they “voted”. First order would be massive firings, one would have to start from the ground up and disband nearly if not all the bureaucracies that weighs this nation down. Start from scratch, with people beholden to our constitution and make it any future over reach is swiftly nipped in the bud. Finally, and in my eyes most importantly, 3 EQUAL branches of govt! Oh, that and no more spending than we make…..

I would abolish all political parties. You in Govt. now represent all the people not just certain ones. You stand for what is right and what is needed for those that you represent.

Not sure if I could do it as President. Too many pesky laws in my way.

I like this too.

The government is a necessary evil and should be seen as such by EVERYONE.

I don't want to be the one to throw a wet blanket on this, but it will never happen! this country is so divided. In order to implement needed changes there has to be one party rule.

We, as a country, have always had and will always have our differences. What unites us is a common enemy like we had in WW2 and during the cold war. That is when both political parties fear losing their power over the people to an outside threat and so are forced to work together to defeat that threat. The current rift has been growing since the fall of the Soviet Union.

any law with very questionable history , law was made then it was realized it was a bad law , changes were made to try and correct the errors not just once ,but repeatedly.
if it is bad law just end it that would of course include much of the ATF. I would make it the ATS alcohol, Tabaco and other legal intoxicating substances or divide it's personnel up to other agencies and let it die.

Firearms and explosives don't belong in the same jurisdiction

regulation with an inconvenience tax would be over. it isn't about safety it is about creating barriers. or your 2nd suppressor wouldn't take longer to approve than your first and your 3rd longer yet.

any thing that is pitched as public safety that is just control in disguise , gone

one set of rules for everyone not one set if your rich or well connected

simplification and removal of many laws. if the law has been found unconstitutional as it applies to any person , if so it is on my short list to be looked over for removal.

transition to consumption tax rather than income tax.

Healthcare accounts that you can put into Pre-tax up to 20% of your income and they just keep rolling year to year so money you put in at 21 is available for use when you are 51 and so on.

I would start using the Army to train Doctors my priority besides domestic security would be that the Armed forces are looking to the future needs of the country and right now that is doctors , nurses, truck drivers , EMS , fire and police those are the young people we should be recruiting and putting them through school. they can carry a rifle also and maintain that training, we need what we need and these are the job sectors we need good people in going forward.

seniors and young people alike need to know that there will be some security in their income , savings and retirement.
Politicians play on the SS they have millions of people who are retired or near retirement afraid , they play on that fear and that is wrong and manipulative and they intend to make the same paly over and over.


America only has one issue, we have a Responsibility crisis and everything else stems from it.

Cut the military by 75%. Train the 25% how to work with the MILITIA of self armed citizens to protect the U.S. Work on a constitutional amendment that U.S. armed forces do not get involved in foreign conflicts.

begin Taxing import and export again to phase out income tax

Cut welfare benefits to healthy people gradually over the 4 years till healthy people can no longer apply.

End the student loan program so college becomes more affordable. Cut welfare benefits will lower health care cost

End all foreign aid dollars

No more bailouts of Cities, pension plans or anything else the federal government had no part in planning or the collapse.


May be pretty divisive at first but after 3-4 years when the benefits start becoming apparent i think that would change.


Do you need a campaign manager? Where do I sign up?

Let’s put you to the test and see how you would do.

First question, Your candidate is an atheist, how are you going to convince the religious population he isn’t the anti-Christ?

Eliminate omnibus bills ... One bill, one idea, plain American English; if you can't get it said in 10 pages it's too complicated > everyone will know what their representatives are voting on and there won't be a need for a lawyer to decipher.

In the spirit of bread and circuses I'd start throwing democrats to the lions.

Well for starters I don't think the antichrist is a trapper from Kansas in prophecy.
