You've been sworn in as President of the United States.
Submitted by John B on Wed, 08/26/2009 - 15:20
It's your first day in office. What's the most important action you take that day? Remember you get no help from Congress, no bill to be signed. Congress may be hostile.
Mine is, as Commander-in-Chief I order the redeployment of the U.S Military from Iraq and Afghanistan to the southern border of the United States to defend against any and all invaders.

The first thing?
Kick out the secret service, host an open Jimmy Buffet party/concert on the White House grounds, leave all the doors wide open, and set up a volleyball net with beach balls in the fountain pond.
The second thing would be to make the senate and congress come out and clean up after it the next day.
Go Jimmy.
As long as it's paid for out of your pocket, go for it.
grant
Nope.
It would be paid for with the pay cuts I executive order to congress and the senate.
Better yet.
Do both, pay cuts and pay for Jimmy out of your own pocket and you have my vote.
grant
Dismantle the U.S. military,
Dismantle the U.S. military, and return all regulatory authority to the States for them to maintain militias. As for maintaining a military in Washington there would be no need. The only service man employed by the Federal government would be me, the president, commander of State militias, should Congress require me to do so by declaration of war. Of course this would be done while recalling all service men from around the world.
Then I would propose to congress that all congressmen leave Washington and work in their home States, no need to have taxpayers spend money to send representatives to Washington when there is telecommunication systems that can just as easily serve the needs of congress, both house and senate. Then I would put the White House up for sale and live in my own home. Again why have taxpayers pay for this none essential perk. Then I would make a presidential order proclaiming all citizens of the U.S. sovereign people, and return all lands held by the U.S. government to the market for purchase or homesteading, with land patent rights for all.
All I ask is the I be buried in a pine box with no grave stone or marker.
grant
I would find Cheneys bunker and get in it. Cause they would
kill me. Cause I'm taking it all back to March 1781.

Awesome answer
Awesome answer
I would
Immediately issue and order to bring all of our troops home from everywhere
Immediately Fire every single person that I had the power to
Immediately Start pardoning every person convicted of a non violent, victimless drug offense
Immediately Pardon every person who is in jail for not paying their income tax
Appoint Ron Paul as secretary of the treasury, Peter Schiff would replace Bernake, The Judge would be notified that he will be appointed to the supreme court
Then I would have a big party with all of you on the white house lawn.
Now THAT is a plan I could support
I'll wear my best suit to the party. MyOwnBuzz for POTUS!
well since there are
some really rich elites that need killing, I would order an accident to happen to them, with my power as commander in chief to the special forces. With the worst of them gone, with those guys gone, I get my pr team to spin it, for the sake of bringing the troops home (like a false flag but you know good). While all that gets underway, several people would lose their jobs (think fda, fcc, ect) and I would also have a nice long conversation with congress about how they are screwing the people they are supposed to represent, (and about the time election season comes back up I will remind their people).
Why not
Put them on Jerry Springer and have the people in the audience full of people they screwed over...Doesnt Springer allow chair throwing?
Then after that....how about a neck tie party on the court house lawn...Send the message..people wont put up with that crap anymore.
Freedom is another way to God...A corrupt government is a straight way to hell.
I believe in Hope & Change..I Hope the government will Change

Hmmm, if we tried to do the
things listed below I don't think we would make it to the swearing in ceremony, we would have an accident. I would have lunch with Ron Paul and his supporters and thank them for supporting me. LOL LOL
To be honest, in the present condition the country is in, that scenario is impossible. You know it does point out how brave Ron Paul and the others are for even trying this. They truly are courageous.
Prepare & Share the Message of Freedom through Positive-Peaceful-Activism.
Income Tax
I'd order the Secretary of State to cease and desist from enforcing the federal income tax (right before I fired his ass! Baaaaaa!).
Call me paranoid,
but I'd invite a considerable group of Marines to be in the inaugural parade.
After the parade I'd invite them to the White House and keep them as my personal guard. The Secret Service would be sent away. Frankly I wouldn't trust them, afterall they didn't save Kennedy.
Wait, you are saying that
Wait, you are saying that the Secret service didnt help by walking away from his car? what a surprise. /s
I see you and raise it a bit ...
a complete redeployment of all of our troops back to the states and the immediate forced retirement of any soldier or officer that is elegible for retirement.
One other little thing ...
I would use my power of the stump to explain the future demise of the dollar as best I could. WOW!!! you don't even have to have the power of law behind your words. Could you imagine if a president said this today?
WAHOR!!

An Immediat
news broadcast on all networks which would air the original warning of Reagan and Kennedy as well as the various written warnings of many other great leaders.
I would then direct them to sources of information they could trust and warn them of the msm. Warn the people of the individuals who would demonize anyone with questions. Warn them of the many lies and manipulation tied to the use of racism as a divider.
I would use the air time to grow and strengthen the grassroots. Rally the few good congressmen and senators and challenge the corrupt. I would remind everyone we are NOT a democracy and what our founding father felt of it.

Before you've had a chance to make up your mind...
Oh, what shall it be? Abolish the Federal Reserve? Abolish the IRS? End the Iraq and Afghanistan wars? Legalize all plants? Bring charges against the entire pharmaceutical industry?...
...you are brought into a darkened room where there is a projector. You are ordered by a voice to sit down. The projector is turned on and you see the footage of JF Kennedy getting assassinated in vivid detail.
The projector is turned off.
The voice in the dark then says "Just thought you might want to see this before you go getting any bright ideas. Any questions?"
Moral of the story: The President only has the power of the Elite that pull his strings. It's the People that rise up against Evil that have the real Power.
close all foreign military
close all foreign military bases and bring the troops home.. that I could do without the consent of CONgress..

Matthew 10:34 Think not that I am come to
send peace on earth: I came not to send peace,
but a sword.
I ex order
Get Web Hubbell to find out about UFOs. Wait somebody did that.
My executive order wish list...
1. Make it illegal for any elected official to violate the constitution.
2. Make a state fund for all political parties for the citizens of that state to contribute for campaign contributions and send lobbyists packing by making the exchange of campaign contribution from the individual only.
3. All able bodied Americans with an acre of land are provided with non GM seeds to ensure that during the coming depression and collapse that no American went hungry.
4. Military leaders would be summoned to organize a withdrawal of all troops across the globe and be brought home to defend the homeland, and reinstate the militia through the committee of safety.
5. Dispatch the navy around the country with members of each branch of the military on board ready to defend this nation.
6. Appoint sheriff Mac as my single czar to help educate local sheriffs in their duties, and end the police state through mandatory constitutional education.
7. From that day forward have each elected official sign their state and federal constitution, stating that any violations would be conceived as treason against the people, and anyone that tried to ever change that law have their citizenship revoked.
8. Make mandatory all classrooms K-12 and mandatory college prerequisites of a constitutional curriculum.
Then I would sit down and plan for day #2.
Is that too much?
In the beginning of a change the patriot is a scarce man, and brave, and hated and scorned. When his cause succeeds, the timid join him, for then it costs nothing to be a patriot.

Beautiful,
I love item #7.

#8 is kind of ironic
The states created the federal government so they're more than capable of educating their citizens about it's purpose and meaning. And the Constitution doesn't say anything about education.
And in that...
The majority of civics that the non educated individual knows is parental civics 1010, from an uneducated partisan family member propagated to the left right paradigm. I don’t think I will have to worry about this "hypothetical" situation coming to fruition, but this is my wish list for day one. What is Ironic is that you assume if I took office all state authorities would tow my political line? Remember this is under the guise that even the Congress would be hostile.

I agree...
bring'em home from Iraq and Afghanistan...but also Pakistan, Europe, Japan, etc...
I would inform my friends around the world that that may now provide for their own defense.
And Yes I would deploy the troops to the border.
Finally, I would send the Marines to Washington D.C. to apprehend the enemies within.
Just come home
Bring'em home.
