The Patriot Act
My first
act, after being sworn in as President of the
United States of America, would be to order the
arrest of the current President, and much of his
current and previous staff, on charges of Treason.
My second act would be to ask Congress to nullify
the laws that make such an arbitrary act legal.
These laws are the basis for but one of the several
charges of treason leveled against them.

Church & State
When a
member of a protected group bites the hand that
protects it, perhaps it is time to remove those
protections. When a Church officially advocates
that its members vote in a particular way, it is
they who violate the separation of Church
and State.

Income Equity
The core of
"Free Market Economics" is "Take All You Can Get".
While this is generally a reasonably fair and
equitable system, it is sometimes neither. When
those at the top grab an inordinant share while
minimizing the amount given to those at the bottom,
value be damned, it is time we legislate
protections for those on the bottom. Earnings ought
to accrue to those who are productive.

Illegal Aliens
We have a
problem with Illegal Aliens in this country.
Working Americans want to be protected from them,
Employers want to take advantage of them, Taxpayers
object to paying for their free ride. And then
there's the ever-present FEAR, fear
of the different amongst us. We can't solve the
FEAR, but we can certainly solve the lack of
documentation, the below-scale pay and the failure
to pay their share of taxes.

The Christian Vote
Mr Huckabee
and Mr Romney have made religious claims in their
effort to claim the votes of the Religious Right. I
say neither is a Good Follower of Christ, that
instead they would be today's Pharisees, if
we still had such a thing. Christ was about
upsetting the Status Quo, not about strictly
enforcing it. He was about freeing mankind, not
about restricting them - and, in particular, the
women among them. Vote as a True Christian
... Evict the Pharisees from our Temple!
