Well, why can’t the candidates clearly spell out their own platforms to us? I’m so tired of the gobblygook and doublespeak.

I’m just laying out what I’d want to hear.

Terrific platform. Think we'll see in our lifetimes a candidate who supports all those things? We can hope.

1. Drill here, drill now, nuke anyone else anywhere near our oil fields. 200 mile limit. That includes Canada.
2. Nuke the UN
3. Flat Tax. No exceptions. ESPECIALLY for COngress & Lobbyists.
4. Restrict foreign aid to our allies only. And only those allies that trust their citizens with firearms. The rest are fascists. Yes, that includes the UK.
5. Stop all illegal immigration. Deport those already here by trebuchet. Then Mine the border with nukes.
6. NO more visas to anyone from Muslim countries. Islam is so great? Wonderful. Stay the hell home.
7. No more immigration from Third World countries. This includes Canada.
8. Allow racial and religious profiling. Require a minimum IQ of AT LEAST 80 for all TSA employees.
9. Defund Congress. No free lunches, haircuts, limos or pages.
10. Term limits - 2 terms and permanent ban from any political office or lobbying position.

I didn't make the post, but . . .Vanity?

Maybe.

In this PC world, too many fear to speak out against what they see is happening.

And what is happening?

Our "elite politicos" are over-ruling the People. They are telling the people what they feel People must accept, because "they" are smarter than the people. "They" believe the People are too stupid to see what is going on.

And what is going on? The death of this country, that's what!

Vanity? LOL!

Look into alternative fuels as a long-term stragety.

IMO, both parties are far too corrupt to nominate such a man.

Any person receiving welfare (this means money for contributing nothing to the economy) shall not have the right to vote. Ban lawyers from holding political office or at least from dominating politics—perhaps no more than 10% of offices to held by lawyers. Restore free speech and make it so even on college campuses across the nation. Higher education administrators that allow suppression of free speech would be subject to criminal prosecution.

Ban special rights and privileges across the board for all groups including sexual deviants, and minorities. Set asides for all groups would be banned. Open competition with the same rules for all. Make it the law of the land that individual rights supersede all group rights at every level.

Only those who pay taxes vote.

One vote for each dollar in taxes paid.

Unlike the current redistributionist boondoggle, you will note that my plan is self-correcting.
