I was thinking after I put up the last post, imagine if an average Joe Blow was elected President of the United States of America, rather than a famous actor, war veteran, or popular senator or governor. I was thinking to myself of the things I would do if I ever became President, and I found that some of my views are simillar to those from the funny email jokes that have circulated around, from Robin Williams, and the late George Carlin. So here's a few things I would do.
1. Tell all the other countries in NATO, that we're done being the world's policeman, bodyguard, lunch lady, doctor, and loan "Lending Tree." It's their turn to do it, and if they have a big problem that they all can't solve, then come see us...

2. If you're here illegally, get the fuck out! My grandparents did it the correct and legal way back in the 40's during the depression, applied for visas and citizenship when they came over from Canada, Finland, and Scotland!! Yeah, you can visit, but don't overstay your welcome. I don't care if you're trying to make a life for yourself, you're breaking the law, that's why the call it "Illegal" aliens.....

3. Learn to speak english. I'm not saying you can't speak your native tongue around your family and friends, but when dealing with, and being in the public, speak english like my French-Canadian grandparents did. Their first language was French. I'm sure you wouldn't like it if I went to your country and expected you and all your friends to speak and learn english, or spoke english to my friends and family while living there, -I'd go there to your country legally, I might add...

4. I'd pull all of our troops, seeing that we're not the world's policeman anymore, and guard our borders from the aforementioned illegal aliens, or any other country that decides to mess with us.

5. Stop worrying about other countries problems and let NATO worry about it. We have our own problems right now with the homeless, the military veterans that need to be taken care of, unemployment, housing, etc., etc., etc....

6. Stop the outsourcing of jobs in the U.S. If you're a company here in the states, and you want to make money and be a productive company, you shouldn't be laying off our citizens, then shipping the jobs overseas to 3rd world countries just to save some bucks. You're not helping the country with unemployment, just making it worse. If you choose to do that, take your COMPANY and move it to the 3rd world country and screw them...

7. Make special interest lobbying illegal. It may just make the politicans less dirty and corrupt, and make them fight for what the people want and need...
8. Give major league sport athletes a salary cap. How can a MLB baseball player make $30 million a year, but teachers make crap for pay? They're the ones that are making our children smart, wouldn't you want to pay them respectively????

9. Salary cap the Oil executives' salaries! Give me fricken break! "It's all supply and demand", and "we have no control over the prices" crap. Then how the hell do you make $30 BILLION in profits a fricken quarter????? Quarter, not in a year, a fuckin quarter!! Meanwhile, the citizens are struggling just to make ends meat, and choosing between food, clothes, etc., or to put fuel in their vehicles or heat their homes...

10. Make federal, state, and local workers buy their own cars, and buy their own gas! I can't tell you how many times a week I see state employee cars, government cars, state police cruisers, and other vehicles carting their families around, going shopping, taking trips out of state to RI, MA, etc. and filling their gas tanks up at state buildings, without having to pay a red cent!! Maybe if they did have to pay for things, they'd start fighting for us ordinary citizens and lower the price of gas!!!!

That's all I can think of right now.....but I'm sure I could find a lot more stuff to change if I was president. I wonder if I could get enough petitions signed to get me on the ballot in 2012? LMAO

Let me know when you start circulating the petitions - I'll sign!!!
Bravo on all of these and I so totally agree with you!
Well I am not sure you Americans speak English anyways, so when I pop over I will kick you all out and rule the land myself.
:)
I'm with you on a lot of these-espeically the illegal aliens one and the speaking English one! Also-I'm a huge baseball fan, but think it's ridiculous that they get paid as much as they do. Give it to the teachers, that's my thought too. :)
Hope you had a good weekend!
