If you became the US president this fall (ignoring the fact that it’s probably not possible, as most people here are either under 35 or not born in the US), what would you do?
Serious and joking answers welcome.
dark
Remove troops from foreign stations: Iraq, Afghanistan, Haiti, South Korea.
Consolidate forces.
Prepare for battle with the real enemy: Canada.
Watch movies in the presidential movie theatre.
I’d have myself assassinated…I have a hard enough time managing my life as is without having to worry about everyone else’s. 
Throw the baby out with the bathwater.
What <i>wouldn’t</i> I do >.>
Politely ask 984 to use a different Ric Flair picture.
… oh, wait. I can do that anyway, but it won’t make a difference.
… you know, even if I were President it wouldn’t matter.
Illegalise gay marriages, and make lesbian marriages mandatory by age 20.
Rule supreme until I die.
A chicken in every pot, and a porn stash in every closet!
And on a small note: I don’t think ANYONE here qualifies. I mean, Drgon Ninja and Wilfredo Martinez are old enough, but they live in Canada and PuertoRico, respectively. And I think thety’re the onyl ones over 35 here.
Take over the world, that’d be fun ^^.
Edit: If that wasn’t possible, then just Mexico.
Fund genetic engineering until catgirls were possible.
More death penalities for heinous crimes, making room for more inmates. Make gay marriage legal and call it a civil union as not to tarnish the name of marriage(want a good name for marriage: britney spears). Less military in foreign lands. Make high school stricter and maybe more of public schooling less of a social setting. Better pay for teachers, police, firemen: the people who deserve it. Severe punishment for sports players, those that are whining about money and aren’t giving their all in playing a game they should love. A teacher for every student would be nice for individualized learning. Torture “musicians” that either dress too slutty or have girls that dress too slutty and those that have hatred towards women. More rec centers everywhere. Assassinate Dubya and his family. Have all persons that love making their cars noisy perform in nascar and hopefully die. Legalize drugs such as pot, maybe it won’t be too much of a big thing one day and hopefully those that use it will somehow kill themselves and others. Kill those who worship pot or any now illegal drug. Make persons who like their music loud go deaf by 25. Make use of embryo cells and research. More research into cancer instead of male balding and male enchancement drugs. Kill those who think they are God, Goddesses, princesses(except little kids, hopefully they will grow up).
How else could i screw the united states as maybe the rest of the world…
- Gradually withdraw American troops from all foreign locations, beginning with Iraq. Commit them to defending the United States only. Subsidize credible, peaceful humanitarian organizations working abroad.
- Repeal the entirety of the “Patriot Act.”
- Repeal Bush’s tax cut for the rich.
- Make the Pentagon undergo the same auditing requirements currently applied to all other branches of government.
- Improve American intelligence, working together with European countries.
- Impose penalties on organizations that outsource jobs.
- Repeal the regressive cap on Social Security payments.
- Increase funding for public education, mainly for the purpose of teachers’ salaries.
- Call for a full investigation into the justification for the war in Iraq, specifically the Office of Special Plans, the plans for dividing Iraq’s oilfields among “suitors” in Cheney’s “energy task force,” and all pertinent information. Publicize this information and call for full prosecution of all wrongdoing that is found.

I thought that was a serious post until the very last line, and I agreed with most of it!
I was serious, but i realize i could be flamed for what i think so, i made that last sentence.
Hugs Sk, if he wont kill me.
In work settings lessen time on cell phones, unless emergency situations, keep work at work not in the car. Make a parents time at work less. Kill kids who are spoiled beyond belief. Forbid kids from singing and make it illegal to sell kidzbop cds or the like. Bring back the toys r us shopping spree on nickelodeon. Less stupidity(the people) on nickelodeon. Force gaming companies to make better games and not to further technology till they do.

No more war, repealing Patriot Act, and bringing the Bush administration and Kenneth Lay to trial (for differnt things of course).
Cry
Universal National Health Care.
Get rid of all secular legal standing currently attached to marraige, making it a wholly religious institution with no legal ramifications whatsoever. “Civil Unions” will carry the legal standing previously attached to marraige. Any two consenting adults will be permitted to enter into a civil union. (In other words, there will be no need for “gay marraige” because marriges will cease to have any legal signficiance. No inheritence priveliges, visitation rights, et cetera. All those things will come with “civil unions” which, of course, any “married” couple can apply for.) I be all about the separation of church and state, yo. The complete separation.
Virtually abolish the Death Penalty (the only “special circumstance” that will warrant the death penalty will be the “Self defense” clause applied to homicides; if it can be proven that an individual is so dangerous that even behind bars for the rest of their natural life, they continue to pose a clear and present danger to society in general and multiple human lives, then the society can execute the individual in “self defense.” The burden of proof for this is of course going to be very high.)
Repeal the telecommunications act of 1996 and return television/radio media to pre-1996 levels of regulation.
More money for NEA.
Legalize marijuana.
Raise money to balance the budget by ending tax-exempt status for religious organizations.
Dissolve the Senate and House of Representatives when they try to stop me from implementing the above improvements. 
And that’s it for now, as far as domestic policy is concerned.
