I believe every American is ENTITLED to health care. The government is supposed to “provide for the general welfare”. What more general welfare is there? I have a plan, it is more detailed than my plan to deal with Iran. It is multifaceted. It may seem a bit harsh at first and I will be spelling it out over the next few days. Today will be part one.

HEALTH CARE PART 1

I feel the first step towards being able to provide health care is to reform our courts. We need realistic tort reform. Doctors are not perfect, thats why they call it the practice of medicine. While they should be held accountable for any blatant screw ups, such as leaving a scalpel in someones abdomen, they shouldn’t be expected to be held accountable for everything. There should be limits on monetary awards for damages. This will help lower the cost of medical care making it an easier fiscal pill to swallow.

I live in Illinois, where at least all our kids have health care. Thanks to our Governer, Rod Blagojevich. The governator, Arnold Schwarzenneggar announced California is going to do the same thing. There are no examples of states with governer’s names like Smith or Jones or I certainly would have used them. If these two states can manage to do this much the Feds should be able to do better. But, how do we pay for it? That will be the subject of my next rambling.

Anyone who reads this might wonder how I would accomplish anything with no political party affiliation. Won’t the Democrats and the Republicans both be out to see that I fail? Maybe, but I would have one very powerful tool, the people. And the people have 2 very powerful tools: their voice and their vote. I believe some dead president wrote something like…a government of the people, by the people, and for the people. (This is where, in my t.v. ad, you would see the flag waving and hear a choir singing “America” in the background with, of course, MY picture superimposed)

I’m sure trial lawyers will not like this part of my plan. So?

Thanks

This is a little post I like to call “What to do about Iran?” Wanna hyea it? Hyea it go.

Isreal.

That’s it. Simple enough and I’m sure they would be more than happy to help out.

That’s it for tonight

Thanks

I am not a war monger, hawk, or part of the military elite. I’m not so sure we should have gone to Iraq in the first place. I have no doubt that we have the abilty to win the war in Iraq; do we have the stomach for it? What follows is what my plan for winning would be if I were President right now.

First, we need to realize we are dealing with an enemy like we have never faced before. They are fanatics and savage in their beliefs. With that as a given, let’s continue exploring what MY plan would be.

Now that we’ve come to grips with the caliber of people we are dealing with let’s ask ourselves what we need to win. We need to convince the GOOD people of Iraq that we really are nice folks and we really are there to help them. How can we accomplish this? Easily. We immedialely seize control of the media, complete control. We have to block any television or radio signal from any broadcaster that isn’t U.S.A. friendly. After we do that we broadcast continually our propaganda for a couple of months while we mobilize a much larger ground force. After we have our forces in place we use our control of the media to convince the GOOD people of Iraq to go and visit relatives in Saudi Arabia or Kuwait or Syria or somewhere while we take care of business. Hopefully they will heed our warning, if not, we don’t really need then in the gene pool anyway.

With the above tasks accomplished we can then set about as the old saying goes, kicking ass and taking names. Git-R-Done, (Acknowledgements to Larry the Cable Guy) finish the job, prompt the fat lady to sing, listen to a couple arias while we clean up a bit after ourselves and get the hell out.

THAT is My plan for victory, sounds easy, simple enough and certainly as reasonable as any plan that is being bandied about in our Capitol these days.

What we must ask ourselves is: Do we really need a stable influence in the middle east? If we do, is it worth the cost of continued loss of our young men and women? You tell me. After all, those aren’t my children, not my husband or wife, not my mom or dad over there losing their life.

Thanks

The most serious threat to our country (Michael Jackson excepted) is our failure to take immediate steps to not just reduce, but eliminate our dependence on foriegn oil. We as a nation need to be able to thumb our collective noses at O.P.E.C. Do we really want to pin our hopes for the future on the whims of a few oil producing nations? No. Do we want to have to ask Saudi Arabia to step up production every time some military action is called for. No. What we want, or at least what I want for us, is for us as a country to not have to consider oil producing nations at all when it comes to matters of policy.

Then, and only then, when a little oil producing country says…..”Hey, look we have a nuclear weapon” can we bomb them back to the dark ages and not be concerned that our big American s.u.vs will suffer. That would leave us open to use our resources to try and tackle another huge problem………online gambling.

This is such a huge problem that a law basically prohibiting online gaming was attached to a major spending bill. That made it illegal for average Joes like me to make a deposit to an account. Why, you might ask? Because our current government hasn’t figured out a way to get their piece of the pie, thats all there is to it. I say leave me alone and let me blow the $25.00 a month I spend for entertainment any way I want to.

Finally, my top notch volunteer has fixed the problem with the links on this site, so please leave comments. Let me know what you think. And again I ask the few people that are aware of “Clark4Prez.org to please e-mail everyone in your address book a link to this site.

Thanks

There it is…….I said it Merry Christmas. Not happy holidays, Merry Christmas, if that offends anyone so be it. I despise the generic happy holidays, I don’t deny anyone their holidays, so don’t try and deny me mine. Thank you.

Being the hopeful candidate of the people let me tell you how average Joe American has spent the Christmas Eve morning. At some point during the night my water heater decided to rust out, so I have been dealing with the subsequent mess and the hassle of figuring out how to pull off the traditional feast with the water shut off. Stop and think about that for a moment……. Now with that in mind remember this, I have a wife and four daughters and no water. The whole point of telling you this is: If I can handle that kind of stress I will certainly not be bothered by high stress situations when I am in the White House. At my morning briefing when they tell me that Iran is very close to having a nuclear weapon, I’ll look at my staff and with the look that only a father of four daughters can have and say, “Tell them I said stop it.” If that doesn’t work and it almost never does, I’ll try something else. Until that time however, I have plumbing problems to think about.

So, Merry Christmas to everyone, and if you don’t celebrate Christmas then I hope you enjoy whatever holiday you do choose to celebrate where ever it is they celebrate that holiday. Cause in MY America we still celebrate Christmas.
