O.K. \u00a0I’m not really running for President, but there are a lot \u00a0things I sure would like to see changed, so here is my mock campaign promises!<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
1. \u00a0If elected I will ask Congress to draft and pass laws that states any law passed by the Congress must apply to all citizens including members of congress, and all elected officials including the President and Vice President. \u00a0I will promise to sign it the day it is passed!<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n 2. \u00a0I will press that election laws be drafted that would require anyone running for office, once elected, to submit to a full \u00a0forensic audit. \u00a0Once their personal wealth was determined, they would have to sign a document stating that after their term in office, any gain in net worth of more than 10% would have to be submitted to the general fund. \u00a0In other words you can no longer come to Washington to leave filthy rich!!!!<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n 3. \u00a0I would require a balanced budget and a plan that would “assure” the reduction of the national debt over a 10 year period of time. \u00a0All options are on the table.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n 4. \u00a0Any out and out lie told to the American people by any office holder, if caught and it could be proven, would be cause for an immediate expulsion from office and the loss of their pension. That would strike fear in the entire District!<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n 5. \u00a0On the subject of pensions, all federal office holders would be in the Social Security system, no exceptions. \u00a0I bet they would fix it then!!!!!<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n 6. \u00a0After a solid, holes free policy is established, (Congress will have 6 months to do this), Any person on welfare will have a period of two years to train and seek employment. \u00a0Except in the most extreme circumstances, Welfare will be cancelled after the two year period. \u00a0All government assistance programs would go under a full review.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n 7. \u00a0I would require a flat tax of some type that taxes all citizens regardless of income, at the same rate. \u00a0No loopholes so that the exceedingly wealthy can get out of taxes and no free ride for low income. After the welfare clean-up program ended, I think it could be considered to tax the truly poor, at lower rate. \u00a0My goal would be to reduce the numbers of the truely poor significantly. \u00a0After all these years since the Johnson administration and the War on Poverty, we have more poor than ever before, we’re loosing that war!!!!!<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n 8. \u00a0The day I took office I would call in the Joint Chiefs of Staff of the military. \u00a0I would ask for a master \u00a0plan for defeating \u00a0terrorism, at home an abroad. \u00a0I would say my number one goal was the eradication of Isis. \u00a0I would say “all” options were on the table. \u00a0There would be few limits on what our soldiers could do in war, with the exception of human cruelty!<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n 9. \u00a0I would ask the Boarder Patrol to close the borders and return to a immigration policy as before the current madness. \u00a0I would ask for my advisors to find the most humane way to deal with the 20,000,000, 30,000,000 or 40,000,000 illegal aliens that are currently in the U.S. \u00a0There would no longer be mass entrance into the U.S. without proper immigration policies followed.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n 10. \u00a0I would ask for a plan be studied to fix our monetary policy, which might involve not renewing the Federal Reserve Board’s Charter, since they’ve done such a bang up j<\/span><\/strong>ob!<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n 11. \u00a0I would state, “God Bless America” as often as possible, I would try to lead by example and personally put an end to political correctness.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n 12. \u00a0I would ask the American people to pray for America, and would support and attend the National Day of Prayer breakfasts. \u00a0I would respect others right to believe as they wish, and protect those rights, but I would no longer allow the Christian community to be the brut of punishment.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Wow and a lot of other cool things!!!<\/p>\n <\/p>\n If you don’t agree with any of this, don’t bother responding, I’m not in the mood for it!!!!! \u00a0Burning the Jordanian pilot alive, has my dander way up!!!!!!<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Blessings,<\/p>\n <\/p>\n President Pilgrim<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" O.K. \u00a0I’m not really running for President, but there are a lot \u00a0things I sure would like to see changed, so here is my mock campaign promises! 1. \u00a0If elected I will ask Congress to draft and pass laws that states any law passed by the Congress must apply to all citizens […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-13225","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-chronicles"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/billfortney.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/13225","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/billfortney.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/billfortney.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/billfortney.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/billfortney.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=13225"}],"version-history":[{"count":9,"href":"https:\/\/billfortney.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/13225\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":13235,"href":"https:\/\/billfortney.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/13225\/revisions\/13235"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/billfortney.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=13225"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/billfortney.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=13225"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/billfortney.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=13225"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
