What i would do as President… what do you think?
Posted by: | CommentsFirst off. I would run as a independent, (This is all based on the fantasy that i had the $ to run) for I strongly feel that the party system in this country is a massive problem. I would remind the American people that our first president George Washington stated how political parties would lead to disaster and instead of having a group of people wanting to lead the country you would have a bunch of greedy power hungry people… EXACTLY what we have today.
Now What i would do if i was ever elected to office.
1- Pull the troops out of the war, while keeping an eye on the situation we merely offer input and advice to our allies. we are wasting a lot of money overseas (and don’t get me wrong I support the military, I leave for USMC boot camp in a 2 months) we could use the money saved to help out our education system and research and development…
2- Immigration – Start up a organization that is basically the WPA to help build that wall. and not only across the Mexico/ Us border… this helps solve the immigration problem create jobs, get people paid.
3 – Welfare. All people applying for welfare must prove that they are a citizen, must be actively looking for a job, and can only be on welfare for a limited amount of time. they MUST pay back the money lent (Im not entirely sure how far off this is from today)
4 – The Health Plan. This is always a problem for presidents. you want universal health care. your a socialist you don’t and the poor cant afford it. i have the solution, A Multi-Tiered Health care plan. First- the basic level package that all American Citizens will be guaranteed this insures that all have coverage… Secondly. the ability to improve your health care package by paying. if you do a hazardous job your company will be required to pay FOR you depending on what coverage you will need. Some people will still say that its unfair to the poor, I say at least im trying to give them something.
- Also unfair to the Poor… Taxes… why do we give all these tax breaks to the rich when its the poor and middle class that need them? i say give the tax breaks to those that deserve them. why should somebody who has plenty of money get a break. help those in need!… Also, No tax exemption from churches. while i believe that all should have there own beliefs in life they will no longer get special treatment
-With the money put into education and research and development we can start to find new and alternative energy sources. Using the WPA to equip all skyscrapers with solar panels is a good start. more then anyone else is doing.
-So in my humble opinion and the party system is a fluke, the 2 main party’s have made it so that the American people are split down the middle and constantly arguing. this makes it impossible for anyone to unite and gain power. the parties do nothing more then squabble back in forth about topics that will be easy to solve. abortion? stem cell research? Hell Legalize abortion in all 50 states and use the resources gained to benefit stem cell research, we might be able to help the paraplegic, think of the people that are being held back because everyone else is to busy fighting over whos ideas are better. also just legalize pot… i don’t like it and i don’t smoke it but seriously… Make it legal to smoke in ones home. give it an age limit and tax it… Boom… problem solved.
Call me socialist. call me Un-American, Call me a tea-partier (Don’t get me started on them…)
so what do you think of my ideas. i know its strong and alot of people are facepalming right now. but thats my opinion on the matter. you are entitled to believe what you will. tell me what you think i look forward to hearing your opinions!
I am not a socialist, nor am i un-American. and im sure as hell not a tea-partier… also i know that this was a incredibly long rant… i apologize for such a long read. have a nice day and thank you for your time.
when did i say i would become king? i want whats best for the American people and would listen to them. if they would want me out before my 4 years are up so be it… and yes congress is a problem when it comes to my ideas… this is mostly what i hope someone will try to do… even though it will never happen. and thank you for the guy who pointed out the flaw in my universal health care plan thats exactly why i posted! to get good legitimate feed back

Do you think we can handle the Catskills?
Posted by: | CommentsMe and my friends are going on a camping-hiking trip to the tallest mountains in the Catskill mountain rage in New York. The highest is 4,200 ft tall. There are 3 mountains and the hikes are do-able but they have a lot of rocks. Do you think some 17 year old kids can climb all three without any complaints or problems? I mean I’m all for it, but about my friends they may not be as pain-resistant as me.

Okay you know that you can take the SAT and ACT anytime even freshman year or earlier! And did “poorly on my SAT IIs”?! You do realize that the highest you can get on them is an 800? And on the AP exams I really suck at history that’s why I did bad on some of them.
Also I copied and pasted this format from another website and the stuff in ( ) are examples of what would go there not my actually stats so no I am no a first generation but I am a URM. PLEASE pay attention to the colons that’s where my actual stats start
can anybody help me think of a summer camp name?
Posted by: | Commentsim writing a story about a bunch of kids who go to summer camp the camp is near a lake(like most camps in story’ss)in pennsylvania.i want it to be unique but something resonable like a real word not something like a bunch of randomness so could you please help
I have an idea; let’s ask John Kerry and the “SWIFT BOAT VETS” how the feel about it.
hmmmmmmmmmmmm?
But hey Republicans, seriously…
Isn’t it disgusting how once the McCain Affair gets out there -be it true or a pack of “Swift Boat Political Fantasies”, no matter how hard you try to reel in the LIE, there’s no such thing as totally obliterating the McCain Affair, no matter how hard you try to erase it, the image sticks and begins to take on a life of it’s own?
(…and it appears that even Fox News couldn’t resist the topic this Sunday Morning….)
So, playing by the Republican Tactics; I suppose it’s only a matter of time till we see some TV ads from a “phantom group” calling itself, “Vietnam POW Vets for Truth,” claiming that John McCain lied about his treatment in the POW camps and how he was really a traitor to “SOME” of his fellow prisoners….
Hey, just something for GOPers to remember and think about…
we have had the knowledge of using alternative power for over 4 decades, but why aren’t we there yet? Do u believe the oil companies, Dupont, GM and all the others have shelved these ideas for their own gain?

is my brother gay? what do you think?
Posted by: | CommentsI love my brother. He’s the only one I can have a good time with. he’s 22 and im 15.
Now, never in my life have I seen him with a girlfriend.
He has this obsession, with being skinny. Like he doesnt want to be buff, he wants to be…skinny.
he exercises alot, and he always takes care of his hair and teeth.
This one time, my mom bought me some Camp Rock lip balm and i was gonna throw them away and he asked for them. He wears lip balm alot d:
& he has “best friends” that are probably like 30 or something, and he always fights with them like a couple would. It’s kind of scary. Cus I suspected he was gay for quite some time. But recently, I had this boyfriend(we broke up cus of my brother) and he was a skater d:
so everytime he skated his way to my house and my brother was outside he would be like “wow, thats amazing, do that again! wait, let me record you.”
and my ex would always tell me he was gay -.- and the more time i spent with my ex and my brother, the more i started to believe him. My brother would FLIRT with him, like, he would always want to hang out with him and take him from me. Like he did that before with some of my exes but most of my ex boyfriends were preppy, meaning they liked looking good and taking pictures and been seen and yadiyadiya, but he was more of a casual guy, like chill(my ex) so he would stop coming over and he told me my brother scared him. so I asked my brother, cold turkey.
“Brian…are you gay in any way?” and he slapped me -.- I know i was wrong to just ask out of nowhere. but he didnt had to slap me, then he was mad at me for 2 weeks, we didnt talked. I tried talking to him like whatever but he would ignore me. & he gets so mad whenever someone says “gay” like, he gets offended or something. im a cross dresser, i love dressing like a guy, and my brother always tells me to stop wearing those clothes, they’re too saggy or too dark or something.
and i have a gay sister, right? she is lesbian and all, and she and him dont get along. she tells me that she knows he’s gay he’s just in denial. but she can tell.
and he says that being lesbian is wrong, that he doesnt know what happened to my sister to make her that way, he’ll never see her as a brother lalala.
oh and he loves watching disney channel shows d: like i watch them too, but im 15 -.- and some of them, where theres cute guys d:
his favorite show is hannah montana -.- he seriously laughs at everything they say.
my point is…what do you think? i know i should leave him alone, and i learned my lesson, i dont wanna get slapped again xD but what should i do? if he is gay, then what should i tell him?
i dont want my boyfriends to be scarred of him and never come back D:
i cant just tell him “dude, leave us alone.” cus he gets butt hurt. and then he does anything he can to make my life miserable .-.
Do you think Selena Gomez is using Justin?
Posted by: | CommentsSo I’ve been browsing, and I DID notice it was kind of mysterious.
Like when one male start gets really popular, she starts dating them. like the Jonas Brothers back in 2008, and then when twilight became big she started dating Taylor Lautner.
now Justin is the big thing, and she’s dating him.
And then when Camp Rock came out, she was Demi’s BFF.
And when Taylor Swift was winning a lot of reward, then Selena got close to her.
And then she was good friends with Miley when Hannah Montana was huge. Selena can’t sing very well, and her show is most likely ending soon. Do you think she is using Justin just to climb back up the social ladder?
Do you think seven is too young for summer camp?
Posted by: | CommentsMy 10 and 11 year old went to a summer camp (Camp Onyasha) in Western New York where they stayed two weeks last year. They absolutely loved it so they are going for another two weeks this year. My 7 year old son was also very interested so we signed him up for one week of camp to try it out. My husband thinks it’s great, but I am just worried. Do you think 7 is too young to be away from home for a week? Should I reconsider sending him?
