Announcing my candidacy For President of the USA! - Striper Talk Striped Bass Fishing, Surfcasting, Boating

Flaptail · 02-01-2006, 11:21 AM

That's it, I thought long and hard and I am leaping into the fray! 1st my Running Mate, Nebe as VP! For my cabinet, PeteG, Sec of State, Atty Genl., MikeP., Sec. of Defense, Fishweewee, Homeland Sec., Slipknot, Surgeon General, Numbskull, Labor Sec., Professor Moriarty, Health and Human Services, JohnR, Transportation Sec., Fishingfreak, Interior Sec.,KarlF , CIA, Capesams, FBI, Habs, Agriculture Katie press Secretary, Bigfish.

Those are my picks for the cabinet. We will stand to bring order to Government, bring the oil industry to bear on new alternatives for fossil fuels and foriegn oil dependence with cut of all subsidies unless they can bring about thier research for the previously mentioned. They have five years to do it. Helathcare for all as a right of citizenship with no one having to fear they cannot get the treatment they need or the drugs that keep them healthy paid for by the Goverment. Drug manufacturers will be made to provide thier products at a realistic cost where the good of the nations health comes first and profit second. Pork programs must show a real need to be implemented other than for purely political reasons. Education both first, secondary and post secondary for all. Investing in our public institutions so that they will be second to none in quality of education and quality of the teachers, professors and staff and accountability for those same as well with the institution of teaching changed to realize the strenghts of the individual student rather the core curriculum as the basis for the educational process. We support and defend the rights of any and all to live, worship and beleive without Govt. interference and fear of reprisal. That all our welcome to do so as long as they do not do so in an atmosphere of intimidation, or whereupon harm is not done to others in the practice of thier beliefs nor will they be allowed to force those beliefs upon others. That life is sacred but the choice of one's own destiny is thiers alone and if that personal choice is likewise as sacred. That we wish to be a part of the brotherhood of humankind and wish to be allies to all in good times and bad wherever on this planet. Mark this well though, we will not be taken advantage of and as we give respect we expect that same respect in return and if it is not to be given then if you don't respect us you will fear us. Our defense will be of our homeland and anyone that is repressed and it will be strong. Together with our world partners we will demonstrate to rogue states that there is no room in this world for a government based on principals of diminished human rights. A broad restructuring of govt. and it's operations with audit of all agencies, there operations and there usefulness as well as thier associated programs. Please join me on my new ticket, the "S-B Party", now on to Washington!

And Karl, as my Secretary of the Interior you get control of the Seashore!!!!!

Karl F · 02-01-2006, 01:15 PM

lets see.... hmm... first memorandum.....

"Mr. President, I think we should re-open all the old trails, and all the beach, for driving, from Wood-End to CG in Eastham, for fishermen only, and discontinue the off season closures, as some would like to drive the beach, in the off season to check on building structure and the like."

The Dad Fisherman · 02-01-2006, 01:27 PM

Can I be a Liquor Lobbyist?

JohnR · 02-01-2006, 01:37 PM

Flap, can I trade in H&HS on Undersecretary of Science and Tehnology? I would put it up for bid but we will have seen how administrations prior to yours could be bought with the proper "interests".

And I would nominate Clammer for the Secretary of Elderly Affairs

Any recommendations for Commerce?

I see Mr. Secretary but let me go you one step further. Why not do that and nationalize all the coast line east coast and west and make it all a public way? Open to all with no private ownership of any beach anywhere?

Clammer, good man let's get him in on that post! Good thinking! If you can get a good candidate to me for the HHS post I will agree to your move. Remember though I am big on NASA and want to see us back in Space quickly and let the journey of discovery continue.

Commerce? Hmmm....... How about MikeCC, as was mentioned. Any objections?

I would say Mr Sandman, even though he may not be qualified at least he's married to someone qualified. I suppose that is a more beneficial method of selection than some wonderous picks in recent years

TheSpecialist · 02-01-2006, 02:17 PM

I'd nominate BM for secratary of mental health

RIROCKHOUND · 02-01-2006, 02:18 PM

As for Penikese that can become the presidential retreat instead of Camp David and of course we will put up Bass stands.
