A Political Wish List

 

I Believe

We put too much stock (and power) into the hands of the President (no matter who he or she is). While an Administration may have “Policy,” the fact is that laws are passed by legislature. Congress passed tons of legislation last/current term, and yet the Senate (under McConnell) failed to bring forward hardly any for discussion or debate. That is lawlessness, pure and simple. That is one man obstructing the work of the Peoples’ House.

We need to eliminate gerrymandered districts. The people should choose their representatives and not the other way around. 

The Senate must be required to bring legislation from the House to the Floor to be voted up, down, or remanded for more work.

The Administration must be required to follow all laws (Hatch Act, NSA, etc.) and respond to all subpoenas. A new law clarifying what we understand (High Crimes and Misdemeanors) to be, and the President clearly held accountable for his/her actions in office.

Congress needs to pass a law that specifies that every President MAY be indicted while in office for any act that would be a felony if any other citizen were to engage in that same conduct.

God Bless America. God Bless our President-elect.
