If you were President

#19

President couldn't alone do most of the policies most people here want. Some are actually outright non-Constitutional.

 

For the changes I would want, would need to take over the whole government:

 

1. Propose constitutional amendment to end gerrymandering and institute mandatory redistricting of all US congressional districts. Part of this would also include provisions regarding counting voters vs people (should be people), taking away voter id laws, and getting rid of the electoral college. 

 

2. Clarifying Corporate Law to eliminate the idiotic notion that Corporations are people. Make it harder for Corporations to live in eternity.

 

3. Campaign finance/election reform. Limiting election campaigning to set time frames (like it is done in most other democratic countries...) and then setting contribution limits.

 

4. Media reform. Break up the large media/telcomm industry that is now basically centralized into 4-5 major corporations that own everything. Re-instituting the rules that were in place in the 80's before the horribly monopolies that exist now were in place. Provisions to this would be to start the process to institute that both Internet access and cell phone service are to be considered as service utilities much like water, sewage, electricity, and gas. But reinstituting policies that stimulate competition.

 

5. Finally require an audit of the Pentagon/defense department that still has never been accurately done in 20-30 years. Provide money to update their servers in a way that has strict oversight by Congress (Hey Tea Partiers. Go to town!)
