"I would not run as a President for the US but for Humanity - cut the BS and focus on the important issues"
Problem with that is, that's exactly the mindset of the people you're speaking out against. You can not, and will not, ever please everyone on the
planet. You're making absurdly sweeping generalisations and you're literally trying to speak on behalf of the entire planet. Have you ever been
outside of your own culture? It doesn't sound like it.
I find my friends aren't 'bored' as much as they are fed up. There's a huge difference. There's plenty to do to stave of boredom - being fed up is
different it produces a sort of apathy. The people who I do know, and it's a very limited number, do feel they're lied to daily and that they can't
really trust anything any more, but that doesn't mean we need a world leader.
What you're in essence saying here is, I'm going to force individualism on you, but it's only going to be acceptable if you accept it voluntarily. See
the irony?

Now here's my biggest problem, and the most telling thing you've stated.
"In my understanding the next big goal for humanity is to start exploring our solar system and get people of our rock and to new worlds. Now this
might be a 100-200 year goal however I strongly believe that we need to lay the foundation more today than tomorrow."
This is totally insane. For a guy who's speaking about global community and equality how are you going to achieve this. There's people starving, and I
don't mean hungry, I mean literally starving in other countries but you want to go into space? Where's your head at? You'd have to spend all that
money down here sorting out homelessness and starvation first. Never mind a 100 to 200 year goal, if you're as humane as you say, try 1000 years.
The people who are going into space today do so on the misguided notion that what they're doing is 'for the best' when really it's for their own gain.
They want satellites and GPS, internet and other such things. As a humane world leader you couldn't focus on that, you'd have to focus on the people
first, and they don't live in space.
