I would be the first pretty president. Maybe even the first gay president. I would attempt another tax cut to lower unemployment and create lots of jobs for everyone. I would allow the people of America to vote as young as 13. Then I would legalize gay marriages in all 50 states. Legalize escort services in 4 new states: Nebraska, Michigan, New Jersey, & Florida. To keep the retired population from overpopulating to working class, I would raise the retirement age to 70. It has to be done in order to keep the money going. If the retirement population goes up, so does unemployment. I would probably soften up the military though. Instead of gray or camaflage, our soldiers would have pink uniforms and weapons. I would enforce hugs and kisses to end wars and make everyone love eachother. We'd have a holiday in August called National Affection Day where we'd share feeling and love. Of course I'd make a lousy president cuz it's a lot of work.

Well, the social issues would tear the country apart, so no.
But I do like the tax cuts! (For those who say it makes the rich richer, what do the rich do with that money? They spend it! Increased spending makes more jobs! imagine that.)
Like I said, good economic policy, poor social policy. And screw your military policy. So no.

Listen here sweetheart. Being pretty doesn't matter anywhere outside the cheerleading squad. Being gay means you lose more than 50% of the voting public. Being a woman means you also lose a huge number, leaving you with a solid.... ooooh 2% who would even CONSIDER voting for you. Tax cuts do not lower unemployment, they just make the rich richer - so those 'philanthropic' enough to decide to give their lower than subsistance wage drones a payrise benefit, how unfortunate that those who are rich do not get so by giving their money away. Net result - poor get poorer, rich get richer.
Giving the vote to people under 18 means you must also tax people under 18. Paying taxes means you get to vote - those are the rules. Legalising gay marriage in Alabama and Texas would probably cause another secession, and stop 100% of evangelicals from voting, and almost certainly make them start civil disobediance. Raising the retirement age is just plain stupid, and also hits the poor far far harder - as only the rich can afford to retire 'early', meaning everyone else gets no rest until they're 6 feet under.
If the retirement age goes up, unemployment does NOT go up, because retired people are not classed as being unemployed, exactly as school children are not classed as unemployed.
Whilst it would be good to have a gay woman president it will never happen. Ever. Most Americans find even the fact a woman could be president hard to swallow, let alone one of those (as the Bible preaches) 'unnatural' gay people. Plus with policy like that you'd be laughed at in every single country, let alone ultra-conservative Bible-belt america.

I thought is was impossible to "make everyone love eachother" by enforcing something. And Hugs and Kisses would be hard to enforce.

Wow! My head spins.
If it wasn't for you cutting taxes, you would get every Democrat vote in the Nation.
All of those ideas, except for the tax cuts, were tried by Carter & Clinton.

I probably would not vote for you since your world view, so far as I can see, doesn't agree with mine. Personally, I think the soldiers wouldn't wearing pink uniforms. they would be easy targets for the enemy.

''I would be the first pretty president''
-- there I stopped reading there and I am fully knowledgeable about the fact that I am not voting for you. When you run be sure to put your little speech in your campaign. and make sure that's your first sentence> "I would be the first pretty president''

Hell no. Your platform sucks and you obviously are lacking the mental savvy for the job.

Absolutely not. Your priorities are way off base.
