If you were elected President?

Question

Do you think you would make a good President of the USA? What is the first thing you would do when you got in office?

Answer 1

If I was elected President,  the first thing that  I would do is see a psychiatrist and ask him (or her) what in the world I was thinking.  The second thing I would do is change my name and beg my family to forgive me.

Answer 2

Honestly speaking, no I would not make a good president as I'm not comfortable leading people.  Plus the stress would be just too much for me.  If I was to be elected president, the first thing on my agenda would be to get our troops out of Iraq.  

Answer 3

First thing I would do would be to set up a National Health Care Plan and not anything like we have with these pill pushing doctors that we have now.

Then I would bring home the troops, every last one of them.

Then I would get manufacturing back in this country.  Having lived in China I know they are no competition and now that the Chinese government is taking back tax saving discounts it is our time to shine.

Answer 4

I'd put in a new front office with a time clock.  Then I'd move the CIA onto the grounds & force myself to see why they can't adapt to the real world...no offense intended.  I'd consult a designer, then ask the person in charge what's next.  I'm certain there's a hidden Mother Board somewhere in there that's running the show.  If not, THEN WE'RE definitely going to put one in & get it up & running so I can have my "alone time".  

Then, I'd focus on the housing shortages for low income families & individuals & try to get the shelters to HELP the people, rather than simply give them a meal & a bed.

Answer 5

2. build mine field between us and mexico, keep our money here

3.do what ever i could to make sure only us teams win stanley cup, just said this to po my canadian friends lol

Answer 6

Yes I would.  I'm going to name my cabinet from Yahoo! Answers senior contributors.

Answer 7

Oh boy what a loaded question .Ok what i would do that everyone would not like i guess is no longer  let congress tell me what to do.Then i guess i would give people on social security a 5 percent raise the first year and bring our soldiers home and help our folks right here in the good ole USA that are in need.I would(ok i dream big ) have those who have money help by matching them with families and make them help the family to get goin again.Then that family to help another.Then id need to do something about health care.Well we would have health care lowered if children were able to get balanced meals ,good homes to live in and get there school shots on time.For seniors it would be a cut of half the normal price .Then i would lower groceries so they could get the things they need at the store.Oh yes there meds that would be for a small fee instead of all they pay now .Yep id take two vacations per year one to the mountains and one to a unknown destination where i could rest for about a week to get ready for the next crisis.Yep id be one whale of a president and guess what no one would probably vote for me .But i did enjoy the question.

Answer 8

Fire Congress so I could get things done for the people . . . Not for special interest groups that wine and dine the Congress.

No more PAYOLA if I were president.

Cut Government Grants for silly research and let these research people . . . Get a real job.



That would be my first day in office..

Answer 9

I agree with Dizz.the National Health Service here in U.K. is our greatest achievment.

Answer 10

Forget being President...I want to be Emperor! The first thing I would do is get rid of Congress! Then something decent could happen for all the US!  

Answer 11

I'd make sure no one was poor and that everyone had equal rights.

Answer 12

hi poppy ! yes i do think i would be good , lol , but being a canadian would rule me out .

what i would do though is try to get health care for everyone . healthy body's would be the # 1 thing . then food and housing for people .

have a great day . d.

Answer 13

Yes...........make sure everyone had wonderful health insurance at payments they could afford

Answer 14

Probably not! lol  (I have to be honest right?)  My first thing to do is taking pix of myself in the Oval Office.  You didn't say it had to be something useful!

Answer 15

yes limit all terms to one -- i can not stand professional elected officials -- we have some that is the only job they every had!!!

Answer 16

Not me, I need plenty of sleep and diplomacy is not my strong suit.

Answer 17

Clean house, and I'm not talking about running the vacuum.

Answer 18

I would probably be assinated the second day in office, or on the steps of the Capitol during inauguration day.Congress would not be allowed to vote in their pay raises and they and the House of Rep's would have to work for minimum wage. Organized religion would no longer be tax exempt and their bank accounts would be 'frozen'.
