Taking a page from the Ronald Reagan handbook (keep it simple)…. My platform for my presidential run will be:
#1 JOB GROWTH THRU ENERGY INDEPENDENCE: Mine for coal… increases jobs from mining to equipment manufacturing to transportation to end use; same effects for oil industry …. But add reduction in prices of fuel which reduces costs of goods transported overland, saves consumers at the pump; same effects for nuclear industry – put construction on the fast track with facilities already in the permitting pipeline – we do not need more taxes, we need more taxPAYERS - this is NOT a trickle down job creation policy - there will be job creation in every direction.
#2 COMPLETE REALIGNMENT OF OUR FOREIGN POLICY: Cease all foreign aid (other than humanitarian) to all countries that do not support us; stop funding the United Nations and give them six months to vacate the premises AND the country; review ALL trade agreements and commence treating other countries’ imports as they treat ours – no exceptions;
#3 NATIONAL SECURITY: We WILL profile. We WILL protect our borders. We WILL stop illegal immigration. We will repeal the ‘anchor baby’ law.
#4 REDUCE THE SIZE AND SCOPE OF GOVERNMENT: Begin the privatization of Social Security with the goal of being out of the retirement business in a generation; get mostly out of the insurance business (Obamacare, Medicare) with the goal of citizens taking responsibility for their OWN needs; and on day #1, institute a spending AND hiring freeze for the entire federal government and implement a 5% ANNUAL BUDGET REDUCTION IN EVERY DEPARTMENT EFFECTIVE IMMEDIATELY… a real baseline cut – not a 5% reduction in the rate of growth (this one would be the ‘January Surprise’ since it would be a bitch to campaign on.)
Keep it simple, stupid!
