tgrigsby's Journal: Any Democrat Over A Republican

The title is misleading. I would vote for anyone that I thought would do the job of President of United States well. My definition for "well" includes Constitutional amendments for getting the money out of politics; ending oil subsidies and instead subsidizing solar, wind, hydro, and thorium energy; rezoning and expanding public land forests as CO2 sinks; infrastructure projects including high speed rail, updated energy grid, buried electric lines, replaced sewage, water, and natural gas lines, and fiber optic to the door; dramatically increased clean air and water regulations; higher taxes on the rich with zero loopholes; free college educations; higher teacher pay; protections for unions; a Constitutional amendment eliminating marriage discrimination; overhaul of drug laws; ending privatization of prisons and military functions; single payer healthcare; reduced military spending on junk projects; passing laws that make lying to Congress in conjunction with obtaining war power authorization a war crime; trying former administrations for violation of war crimes.

Etc.

That's what I would do as President. That's what I expect my President to do if that person wishes to represent the interests of myself and my descendants for generations to come.
