[ARCHIVED THREAD] - How would I run for POTUS?

Posted: 1/23/2008 6:15:45 AM EDT

Can I announce now?

I couldn't be worse than the POS that are running in this race.

Quals?

Former Army Ranger, current Fireman. Constant hunter and 2nd Amendment purist (yes, grenades and tanks), dad, no girlfriend.

I used to work the oilfield, I drive a HydroCarbon fueled land yacht. I hate wolves, and believe that the American diet needs more Caribou.

I am protestant, but believe that the FedGov has no business in the Abortion debate at all.

I would axe the budget, tax cuts for all... balanced budget via elimination of entire Departments and overseas spending.

What am I missing?

ETA: If elected I would immediately seize Cuba and rename it ArfComistan... if Ed likes that OK.

And drill for oil/gas on the eastern seaboard of the US.

Illegal immigration... send every fucking one of them back

Several million in both dollars and signatures to get on the ballot.
Oh yeah, how old are ya?

I think every house should have a pistol. A .gov program should be set up where qualified(NCIS checked) households could forego a portion of their tax return and have a quality American made 9mm pistol with 500 rds of ammo sent instead.

Very good platform though.

well the McCain finegold amendment fucked you in the first place so you will never have enough money to run and win, at best you would be second fiddle to a ross perot or asomething.

second if you did find a way around the McCain finegold thing, you will need financial backing to the tune of 20-30 million dollars.

not all money spent in a campaign goes to T.V commercials and newspaper ads.

there are palms to grease, and "promisses" to make.

that and anyone truly good for this country and against the establishment would be assinated with in a month of being elected.

I Promise to bring the exorbitant cost of ammunition down to a level where the average American can now afford to maintain the level of vigilance that our forefathers envisioned!

We can't keep leaning on the backs of the poor! It is time for change people, I have heard the cry of the masses and will do everything in my power to return the government to the people.

And all of the SS109 they need!

The CMP will get funding from one of the countries I hack off the welfare list. And M-4s, M-240s etc will be for sale there, after you get your 1 free per taxpayer.

Is it too late to declare?

Can I keep the money I raise?

I am halfway serious about this. I obviously have a lot of time on my hands, and COULD NOT do worse than what we have running now, as I have a set of morals and am honest to a fault.

That precludes me, doesn't it?
