Congress had to pass a law to fire VA Administrators who without a doubt caused numerous deaths to our veterans in need. How in the hell can a new President fire any union government worker, even Lois Lerner is still on the government dole.
Good questions, I have but one answer. He or she needs to go into the office of President with it firmly stated at the beginning that he/she is in for one term only and that the focus of his/her administration is clean-up of the government. Leave no stone unturned, fire personnel where it can be done. Investigate, arrest and try those others where necessary.
State unequivocally that the goal is removal of those who have committed crimes and reduction of personnel everywhere else is on the table.
As far as foreign commitments go, personally I would remove entirely the concept of foreign aid. If we as a nation have to ‘buy’ our allies then something is clearly wrong.
On another subject the concept of the United States as a ‘world policeman’ needs to be terminated. Also I personally would be ecstatic to have the United Nations find a new ‘home’ elsewhere. Perhaps on an Ocean Liner? It could be home ported out of Liberia?
There is a very simple answer.
How Eisenhower solved illegal border crossings from Mexico
The next president needs to reinstate the same program as Eisenhower on the first day of the new administration. Let the illegal aliens know that they are being hunted and will be deported when caught. Very quickly most of the illegal aliens will leave voluntarily before they are caught.
Obama proved that if you refuse to deport illegal aliens then an endless stream of new illegal aliens will flood in across the border. Eisenhower proved that if you actively hunt for and deport illegal aliens then illegal aliens will flood back home.
Also, Obama cannot make any illegals legal with an executive order. All Obama can do is pardon illegal aliens for past crimes. He cannot pardon them for continuing crimes or grant them any legal status.
