The main question to answer....If you were president, what would you do?
I wouldn't want to be President, but if I had temporary powers to do whatever I pleased that fell within the Constitution or the notations/writings of the founders I would do the following:
Eliminate the Senate and expand the HoR.
Rewrite the Constitution, which is tolerated by Jeffersonian ideals (who says that it would have to happen every half century-ish)
-Get rid of the 14th and 17th amendments to put the states back in legal power.
-Get rid of Federal Courts and take away the power of judicial review (which this wouldn't need to be expressed because losing the 14th amendment would do this) from the Supreme Court and give it to State Courts.
just among other things...
I would abolish all sin taxes.
It is not within the power of the President to abolish any kind of tax.
If you get rid of the power of judicial review, what is the point of the Federal Supreme Court? A rubber stamp? lol.
I would have term limits for both houses of Congress
I would completely scrap the new healthcare bill and start over
The supreme court has basically rendered itself useless as an entity to decide on constiutionality because so many rulings are based on anything but these days. They should no longer have the final say on matters. Maybe we can let the House vacate their decisions with a 2/3 vote. Something because right now they have too much authority.
More Later.
I would make a national speech educating the public that not Everything is the fault of the President, and nor does the President have the political powers necessary to address every problem, and if the American people wishes to blame the President for Everything then he should be given the political powers to do so, and thus make the office of the President a legal temporary dictator and to abolish Congress and the Supreme Court since they no longer serve any relevant functions as organs of government.
Translation: The supreme court makes decisions based on a constitutional interpretation I don't share, therefore they should lose this ability.
You know those decisions are the reason we have a supreme court, right?
No, Texas, you can't have your anti-sodomy laws back.
You are assuming I am talking about only decisions by liberal judges. I am not. I hear plenty of complaints from liberals about decisions some conservative judges make too. Of course I don't share some of their interpretations. Do you agree with them all?
