HERE IS
MY
PLATFORM:
(1). Any
use of
the
phrase: 'Press
1 for
English' is
immediately
banned.
English
is the
official
language;
speak
it or
wait
outside
of our
borders
until
you can
(2). We
will
immediately
go into
a two
year
isolationist
attitude
in order
to
straighten
out the
greedy
big
business
posture
in this
country. America
will
allow NO
imports,
and
we'll do
no
exports.
We
will use
the 'Wal-Mart 's
policy,
'If we ain't
got it,
you
don't
need
it.' We'll
make it
here and
sell it
here!
(3).
When
imports
are
allowed, there
will be
a 100%
import
tax on
it
coming
in here.
(4). All
retired
military
personnel
will be
required
to man
one of
the many
observation
towers
located
on the
southern
border
of the
United
States
(six
month
tour).
They
will be
under
strict
orders not to
fire on SOUTHBOUND aliens.
(5). Social
Security
will
immediately
return
to itsoriginal
state. If
you
didn't
put
nuttin
in, you
ain't
gettin
nuttin
out. Neither
the
President
nor any
other
politician
will be
able to
touch
it.
(6).
Welfare. -- Checks
will be
handed
out on
Fridays,
at the
end of
the 40
hour
school
week,
the
successful
completion
of a
urinalysis
test for
drugs, and
passing
grades.
(7). Professional Athletes
--
Steroids? The
FIRST
time you
check
positive
you're
banned
from
sports
... for
life.
(8). Crime
-- We
will
adopt
the
Turkish
method,
i.e.,
the first time
you
steal,
you
lose
your
right
hand. There
is no
more
'life
sentences'. If
convicted
of
murder,
you will
be put
to death
by the
same
method
you
chose
for the
victim
you
killed: gun, knife,
strangulation,
etc.
(9). One
export
of ours
will be
allowed: wheat;
because
the
world
needs to
eat. However,
a bushel
of wheat
will be
the
exact
price of
a barrel
of oil.
(10). All
foreign
aid, using
American
taxpayer
money,
will
immediately
cease
and the
saved
money
will
help to
pay off
the
national
debt
and, ultimately,
lower
taxes.
When
disasters
occur
around
the
world, we'll
ask The
American
People
if they
want to
donate
to a
disaster
fund,
and each
citizen
can make
the
decision
as to
whether, or
not, it's
a worthy
cause.
(11). The
Pledge
of
Allegiance
will be
said every day at school
and every day
in Congress.
(12). The
National
Anthem will be
played
at all
appropriate
ceremonies,
sporting
events,
outings,
etc.
My
apology
is
offered
if I've
stepped
on
anyone's
toes
....
nevertheless....
GOD BLESS
AMERICA!
Sincerely,
Bill Cosby
