What’s my platform you ask?

Alternative Energy! I’m tired of paying for Saudi/Iraqi/Kuwaiti/whoever middle eastern oil. I’m tired of paying for their health care/education/riches so they can sit over there and tell us that we’re evil.

Alternative Clean Energy would reduce pollution and thereby lengthen the amount of time that the Saudi’s can remember the good ol’ days when they were made rich by an oil thirsty west, while they are back to hearding camels.

Balanced budget and paying off the deficit. I would do this by instituting a serious tax reform policy. You would have exemptions for children and mortgages and health care to take off the top of your total income and after that you would pay a flat 15% to the federal government. Possibly 20%.

International Policy. I want peace. If you don’t attack me I won’t attack you. If you start a civil war in your country I’m not going to talk to you. If you place taxes on the stuff I ship to you, I’m going the tax the stuff you ship to me.

I’m going to be honest. There are a lot of things I’ve done in my life that I’m not proud of, but I’m human and I make mistakes. I’ll never lie to you, I don’t do that. If you ask me a question I will either answer the question or I won’t. If it’s in the interest of the country to not answer the question I won’t. Otherwise I’ll answer your questions no matter how hard they are.

Health Care, old people need medicine and it’s insane for them to have to pay hundreds of dollars/pill. I understand that doctors make mistakes, if they do it out of absolute negligence then they deserve to pay. However, accidents happen. If a doctor screws up his insurance should pay for the medical bills that you acrue in recovering from said mistake, However, they are human and you are always taking a risk by going to get help from someone who is fallible, therefore some of the laibility from said accident should fall on you for taking the risk.

Equal Employment Oppurtunity: I agree that everyone should be hired based on their ability to do a job. However, I do not agree with colleges/workplaces saying that they must accept a certain number of minorities each year or workplaces saying they must have a certain number of minorites on staff. If you can’t get accepted on your own merit then you don’t deserve to be there. I know that I don’t deserve to go to M.I.T. I’m not the same caliber student that is generally accepted there. It happens! Get over it!

My final stance is that your life is your resposibility. If you’re not happy with your life it’s your resposibility to change that, not mine! However, you are not allowed to make yourself happy at another person’s expense. Be nice to each other and everyone will be happier!

Thanks and God Bless America!
