Here is your challenge. What could you accomplish in one week as the President of US?
Limited only by the Constitution. Unlike the bozo in office is not paying any attention to that piece of document!
Limit yourself to 7 items please one per day.

1- Probably go golfing. (I don't even golf)
2- Go to a famous BBQ joint that normally has hours of waiting in line for service.... and butt in line.
3- Hold some fundraisers. (preferably in Las Vegas)
4- Marry some man-looking Sasquatch.
5- Go on vacation somewhere that I can't possibly afford in my present state of affairs.
6- Sic my IRS dogs on someone that I don't agree with politically.
7- Hold a presser and complain that the Congress doesn't do anything.

I just made that plan from what I know about the current President doing. (Sounds fun, right?)

If you were to follow the Constitution then you would get nothing done. Except for doing something through EO's the president has to get the ok from congress really to do anything. Good luck with that seeing how the Republicans and Democrats don't really give a crap about helping America they only care about their parties agenda which only serves the wealthy that put them into office.

One week in office would get nothing done. It would be rule by executive order which I am very much against. I'd probably go make a bunch of speeches about important things and hope that I could get a message out that the next person could take and run with.

Repeal the patriot act .. repeal ndaa .. disband the alphabet agencies .. tell israel pay back every last cent with interest that it got ..

Repeal obummacare .. throw the bankers and wallstreet crowd under the jail.

Gather the world leaders together to settle problems with a good old fashioned drinking contest then when theyre all hung over blare bagpipe music to wake them up and tell them they lost and its time they go home and behave.

Set up proper healthcare NOT insurance that is accesssable to everyone .. set up a proper education system .. repeal all the nannystate laws ..

Meh.. too much that needs done ..

Open the White House to the Americans who actually own it.
Write meaningless executive orders.
Take up air time to opening and honestly answer any questions put forth.
Dodge many assassination attempts by lobbyists and corporations.
Initiate Taco Tuesday, nation-wide.
Moon congress. Repeatedly.
Apologise to the Queen and see if they'll take us back.

With the current Congress? NOTHING!

Funny that people who bitch about Obama would act JUST like him (executive orders, repeals) if they were in office! LOL!

Let's see ...

1. Declare a national emergency.
2. Suspend the constitution.
3. Fire Congress ... lock, stock and barrel.
4. Assume the powers of Congress.
5. Impeach the Supreme Court in its entirety.

6. Give the rest of my 6 days, 23 hours and 55 minutes back to America (with the stern admonition to not screw # up again.

And thats precisely why in real world have no desire for the job .. you lot got yourselves into it you can live with it.

At least I listed a few of the many problems and solutions rather than copping out and saying do nothing.

The question was "What could you accomplish?", not "What would you like to accomplish?". I was responding to the actual question.

And that doesn't change the fact that you (and others) would do just what Obama's doing (and worse). Suspend the Constitution???

Nope wouldnt suspend the constitution .. rather restore it to its proper place after undoing all the damage done by the corrupt bastards holding office ..

As to the method used .. at times one must fight fire with fire.

Sounds like a banner idea, I'm in.
The only other important things I would do is, ban corporations and practical monopolies, get cash out of politics, and raise awareness of the problems here in the US and how to combat them, corporations are not people.

Sounds good .. you can be vp .. figured that would be on day two of the week ..
Along with dumping the fed .. revamping election laws to have more than two parties with the current ones being permanently disbanded and their members prohibited from running again if theres any left that didnt get prison time for their crimes .. dont need the cancer coming back ..

One week isn't enough to get anything accomplished... Not with Congress anyway...

That's why we need to clean out Congress altogether.

But I largely disagree with abolishing the Constitution....

I like this list of ideas:
www.truthcontest.com... The website is jam packed with mondo info about many subjects of interest, including some big questions about life. I went to the political reform section and found, imo, the best set of changes that could make a big difference, and so I would try to implement the political reform ideas.

Edited for too much content

There are 7 pages, but many worthy ideas there.
