Who will be my leader?

We Crain our necks looking for the next presidential canadates.  All claim they are qualified and of good character.  None have declared a platform on which to run. They want to be elected based on change just not the kind the other guy wants.  Vague are the claims more of this and less of that.

No candidate has outlined a domestic policy on which to run. How about audit social security cards, privatize the postal service, return the dept of transportation and education to the states, food stamps and welfare for work, flat tax for individuals and no corporate income tax, secure the border, stop sending federal dollars to countries who do not support the U.S. Enforce e verify, stop funding planned parenthood and free phones, create a vocational path in the 8th grade for people not going to college.  Just for a start.   

Neither a foreign policy.  The U.S. Does not need not send troops to the Mid East, Ukraine, or the border with Mexico.  The U.S. has weapons which will remove entire cities. What we need is a leader who knows the art of war and persuasion. The art of persuasion to avoid and the art of war if it fails. Is our next president able to walk and chew gum? Able to conduct both a foreign policy and re engineer the U.S. Economy for the next century. Tis a fine Neddle we thread between war verses peace and reducing debt verses promoting growth. The next election will determine the fate of all of US. Will the electorate be up to the task?

There is so much possible and so few with a vision!
