- If you are a governor, senator or congressman and would like to run for president, please quit your day job. It is not right that you get to leave your job and show up every now and then for a vote when the rest of us have to show up everyday for our jobs and have to put in extra hours or effort if we want to be considered for a promotion.
- I think candidates should have 2 months for their exploratory committee to determine their viability. That would take place between September and October of the year before the election. Candidates can then announce that they are officially running for the Office of President 1 year before the election will be held.
- There should be 100% full disclosure of the candidate's background, that includes birth record, military record, driving record, health records, thesis papers, tax records, employment history, criminal record and any other record that they may have. I don't want any surprises or unknowns with the person that I will give my vote for.
- When it is all said and done, respect and support the new President. I am disgusted with how so many people absolutely hate and revile our current President. I think the new guy, whoever it is and whatever party he represents, should be given a blank sheet. If he screws up in the first four years, then kick him out and get someone else in there.
- And lastly, when it comes time to actually place your vote, you absolutely have to be a US citizen, you have to show positive ID, and I think there needs to be a voter registration database that is constantly updated so that people that have no business voting, can't, and that those that can vote can know that their vote is counted, is accurate, and is safe from tampering.
I'm not sure how much of that will ever happen, but I think there needs to be some good positive change on how we elect our officials. But until then I will just vote, wait, and gear up for the next election...
