New Requirements For Seeking The Presidency

A little food for thought mixed in with some humor for my readers...

In order to run for the presidency one must:

1) You must have lived in the poverty and middle income brackets. This way you will have a true understanding of what life is like for the majority of the people you will be representing. If you were born into wealth, earned or inherited said wealth, you will give it up for 2 years prior to running for office.

2) You must embrace the philosophy that Freedom is the right to think, say, believe, do, consume and be whatever and whoever one wishes in so long as that choice is not interfering with another's right to enjoy the same freedom.

3) You must believe in and adhere to the principle that the people are always represented over and above Special Interest Groups and that of Corporations.

4) You must be thoroughly educated and versed in Non-Violent forms of Communication and Conflict Resolution.

5) You must know how to communicate your ideas truthfully, effectively, efficiently and clearly.

6) You must have a clear understanding of the Constitution and the Bill of Rights.

7) Political experience of some sort is required. And not only that, this experience must have resulted in positive support and approval from the public. If not, well, choose another profession. We've had enough lying monkey's running things in D.C.

Once elected, you are required to adhere to the following:

1) Absolutely no invading of sovereign nations.

2) No lying to the public about ANY THING. Get that? NO LYING.

3) You will uphold the Constitution at all times. Failure to do so will find your ass out the door. And contrary to current belief in certain corners, the doors to the white house are indeed revolving.

4) You will treat all persons with whom you come in contact with respect.

5) You will hold monthly town hall sessions throughout the nation. You will also hold quarterly press conferences to keep the nation informed.

6) You will refrain from bringing in your particular brand of religion into your speeches, your policies.

7) Along those lines, the moment you utter the words, "God told me to__" or anything along those lines, you will be removed from Office and taken to the nearest psychiatric ward. If this confuses you, please see Webster's dictionary. "Psychotic" and "neurosis" are good words to help clear up any confusion.

8) 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year, you will work first and foremost for the American People. Failure to do so, well, see #3.

If you should have any questions, look back to the Presidency of George W. Bush. Study him, his policies, his ideals, his values, his visions, his demeanor, his choices and ultimately his decisions. Then do everything the exact opposite.
