We need a president who will do two things:

1) Veto any bills that will continue the massive spending. We need annual Trillion dollar budget cuts. Maybe more than that.

2) Be a cultural cheerleader for more morality. We don't needs laws in this area; we don't need government intervention. But we need a president who will name names and criticize social trends which hurt the nation. Use the bully pulpit. Explain that there is good and there is bad, and that people need to make good choices.

Unfortunately, no one on the scene will be able to do either of these two things, never mind both of them.

It seems like the only clear cultural butt-kicker out there who is a devout Christian, who understands the Enemy, and who is close to what you describe is Col. West. He has taken some stands and made some votes that have disappointed, but in a Nation of wimpy men and stupid women in politics, he could be the one - we really cannot wait for 2016.

I disagree about "naming names". The President shouldn't target specific citizens for ridicule except in the gravest of circumstances.

The idea reminds me too much of Bob Dole criticizing movies he admitted thay he hadn't seen.
