Dont laugh please, but i want to become President of the United States?

Question

Earlier, I asked a question of what in a president would make people happy. I soon noted that answer number 5 described me in the bestest way possible. I have been sick of relying on the Middle East for oil, tired of giving all the money to the United Arab Emirates for their oil. I for once if would be elected, would ask congress to pass a law or act that would fund scientific studies on coal. You see, in America, there is tripple the amount of oil found in the Middle East. I dream of having my country depend on our American energy, coal. Why? Because coal can be converted into a substitute for natural gas. It is also very goof for our enviorment, as it does not cause pollution like gas. It is also able to conduct electricity. This would create a cleanier , oil dependant free America. Without all this oil in mind, we wouldn't have to be going into all these wars and depend on Middle eastern countries. So, what do you say, do i have your vote?

* very good for the enviorment,
sorry typo!

Thanks to everyone for the positive encouragment! I do ignore rude comments, as my father says, people in life will always try to put me down, but in the end, it's the other way down.

i keep making typos, oo I'm not good at typing lol

I agree coal has a limited supply, but did you know we have a 250 year supply? yup

Answer 1

Vying for that high of a dream is very admirable. But also regard other things when thinking about being president. There are hundreds of other issues out there other than the Middle East crisis and you must also know how to handle yourself in difficult situations.
You must also carefully think of consequences that may arise from your actions, even when it seems like you're hurting no one and it is beneficial for the country. There are hundreds, if not thousands of factors that may end up hurting many people.
Such as your example on switching to coal. Remember that there are people with jobs, families, and lives revolving on oil and that coal, like oil, is limited in supply. It would also require a huge amount of money, not only in switching every oil-operated equipment to coal, but also fine tuning it to be as efficient as oil.
If you want to be president, keep working towards it. If you can make the world a better place to live, then you have my vote...at least you do when I could just remember to register...

Answer 2

While I agree with you that we need to find another, more natural and environmentally sound method of energy, you're off a little.
First, we DON'T get most of our oil from the Middle East. We get it from Canada, Mexico, and Venezuela. There are only two countries in the Middle East that are even in the top 20: United Arab Emirates, and Saudi Arabia.
I admire your fervor. However, I think you need to take more civics and economics classes; at this point, I don't feel that you know enough.
Also, there is no such word as "bestest."

Answer 3

Every American should have the ability to become President. That is what our country was founded on, equality for all. Start out small on the local political aspect, and work your way up. I think our current president has shown you don't have to be a genius to become president. I wish you nothing but the best of luck, and hopefully we'll be seeing your name on the ballot.

Answer 4

particular. i might choose for to have self assurance it will be in my lifetime, yet you not at all be attentive to for particular. For all i be attentive to the 1st African-American President is additionally a woman. Who is attentive to, we would have a Hispanic-American President previously we've an African-American...or an Asian-American, or an Indo-American, etc. in spite of everything, we can seem on the political spectrum interior each and all of the events and see that it is not so slender anymore.

Answer 5

Coal is a non-renewable resource. Use it up, and it's gone. The US might prosper in your lifetime, but there will be hell to pay in years to come. Same with nuclear energy. Most of our energy comes form nuclear, and we only have 50 more years of it. It will disappear in your lifetime, my friend.

Try solar energy instead. Current solar panels only use a fraction of the energy it collects. A solar panel that can use 100% of the energy it collects would be the greatest invention since the lightbulb.

Answer 6

That is a great idea but you are not the first one to think of it.
In Oklahoma they have switch grass that makes ethanol.
coal and lots of people have spent billions on electric cars but the oil company's are 86% own by Republicans. Do you know what would happen to their billions of dollars? They use every legislation known to man to stop it. We are not dependent on foreign oil. Bushes own oil wells in Kuwait. They need peace over there to protect their oil wells.

Answer 7

I don't know, I didn't read your platform...

Like many 30 second Americans, I want to make my decisions about my President based on negative ads and baseless rumors spread by malcontents (sarcasm)...
