1. Withdrawal from Iraq, and general military cutbacks. Use the money to fund part 3.
2. Tax raises.
3. Schools, hospitals, roads, rails, police and nuclear power for all. Legalise same sex marriage too. Funding for more scientific endeavours too, like stem cells, space exploration, etc.
4. Get scientists and engineers to assist in forming plans for a more sustainable lifestyle.
How hiring a VP.

The Shepnukistani Presidental Platform v2.5
* US Army Gets to build SAM/ABM Shields around every major US City.
* Reforming of Strategic Air Command - SAC Will be Back!
* US Navy/USAF designation system re-split. F-35 for USN to be designated F2O. F-22 to be redesignated F-122. Because McNamara was a moron.
* Revival of B-70 Program/Revival of Mach 3 SST Program - Because we shouldn't have to spend twelve hours flying trans-oceanic flights. New York to London in 90 minutes. Plus, we can then bomb brown people with impunity with our B-70s.
* Nuclear Reactor Building Spree - Make it Nuclear! Standardized reactor design around a 1.6 GW reactor and turbine hall, etc.
* Synthetic Oil Plants - To be built where large amounts of people have been displaced by the shift from Coal power to Nuclear Power. Also, the huge coal demands for this will keep West Virginia, etc's economy from crapping out.
* Army - Make it Pentomic! Imagine Bradleys with Davy Crockett launchers.
* NASA - Revival of Saturn V Program - to be paid for by terminating all NASA grants on Global Warming/Climate Change. I very much prefer noise and chemical pollution from five F-1A engines lighting off at once.
Our environmental policy will be based around two simple principles:
A.) People do not like living in smog or swimming in river water polluted by chemicals. Keep those clean.
B.) Overall Climatic issues to be handled via the C.M. Burns School of Policy:
“Oooh, so Mother Nature needs a favor?! Well maybe she should have thought of that when she was besetting us with droughts and floods and poison monkeys! Nature started the fight for survival, and now she wants to quit because she’s losing. Well I say, hard cheese.”

I'm with IP on this. Well, not politically, but I do think this could be more interesting if taken semi-seriously. And I'm just the placeholder candidate. If/when someone else joins we'll properly select a candidate. And hammer out specifics and positions on issues I didn't address (e.g., immigration, foreign policy).
Candidate (Presumptive): Darth Raptor
Party Affiliation: Technocratic Party of StarDestroyer.net (TPSDN)
Generally speaking, the TPSDN has a very simple platform: One of progress. Progress toward the penultimate goal of addressing every problem that faces humanity. We readily admit that we will never reach that goal, but perfection is a process, not a state. This platform is supported by twin pillars. The first is science and education, the second is engineering and industry.
Members of the TPSDN recognize that some problems are more urgent than others. Thus, the Party is committed to using any and all means necessary to mitigate the looming disaster on the horizon. Immediately, we will foster the development of nuclear power and the restoration of the US rail network. We will work to eliminate carbon emissions and assist other nations in doing the same. We will rebuild our crumbling infrastructure, restart the conquest of space and make our public healthcare and education systems the envy of the world. We will redistribute this nation's immense wealth in a manner that's both fair and conducive to progress.
And most immediately of all, we will cease these senseless wars of aggression for the sake of petroleum. And we will cease committing atrocities and curtailing civil liberties in the name of security. Instead, we will expand civil liberties and promote the absolute equality of all citizens, regardless of ethnicity, gender, religion, lack of religion, sexuality or gender identity. The TPSDN also recognizes that tolerance is not sufficient and that certain minorities require support and protection.

I come from the party of Riffage, Yeast and the End-times, led by me.
As a duly appointed representative of planet Earth, I offer a few things:
To totally neuter the military, so it can only defend the US and keep up the contractual obligations it's already stuck in. This will however be offset by more nuclear weapons, so any conventional force that attacks can be dealt with extreme prejudice. All neocon-esque intervention stuff will be nullified by a pragmatic argument.
Use the money saved from that to fund universal health care, education overhaul, nuclear power, tax cuts, more affordable housing closer to areas of work to cut down on petrol use. Also, protect the environment more and designate areas for emergency food production if things turn worse for some reason.
Regulate big businesses more, possibly a complete overhaul of accounting regulations so you can't artificially inflate shares by giving woefully inaccurate profit predictions and the like.
Yes to all the obvious stuff like abortions, stem cells, gay marriage, etc.
The legalisation and regulation of marijuana and ecstasy.
Harsher punishments for harsher crimes. Public humiliation and flogging for minor crimes.
Legalised, regulated prostitution for all.
National service for all able-bodied citizens. One day a year where you go and help out somewhere in your local area.
All new buildings will be required to have plans which include cultivating some foliage to suck offset CO2 emissions. Additionally, it will become preferable to have building-mounted solar panels and wind turbines to supplement some of the power needs.
Miniature American flags for all.

Can't do that. If you want to do a huge nuclear buildup, you're going to have to build a huge infrastructure to keep those nuclear armed forces in contact and in control. Plus, the production lines for all the strategic forces long ago closed. It will cost $$$ to reopen them.Zuul wrote:To totally neuter the military, so it can only defend the US and keep up the contractual obligations it's already stuck in.

Actually, I don't need a huge nuclear buildup at all, thinking about it. There's undoubtedly enough sitting around to deter conventional warfare and invasion for as long as I'd be president.

Good morning, Politickers.
I see we have a few more names dropped in the hat of love, racing like political sperm towards the great big egg of the Office of President of the United States of SDN (New name for this I'm toying around with).
Also, I'm thinking if we get enough "Candidates" the next round will be kind of a Q&A thread where people ask the Candidates questions before moving on to the first round of the SDN Primaries. If this works out right, this idea could provide us entertainment for the next six month easily.
Any ideas? PM me and we'll figure it out. Anyways, on to...
The Candidates (If I fuck up your platform, let me know for the next round of listing):
Frank Hipper of the Doubleplus Fun Buttsex and Eternal War Party. Not sure what Franks platform is, but I think it envolves sodomy and war.
Civil War Man/Zombie Sherman. Not sure what party they're with or what the platform is.
General Zod of the Kryptonian Assembly. Not sure what their platform is other than not being the lesser tyranny.
Axis Cast of the Rally for Change party. His platform is a big line up of social, economic, and even a couple of military spending changes. No VP listed yet.
DEATH of the Anthropomorphic Personification & Mortality party. Not sure what "PO" is, but he says he's got a solution for it and world hunger (and probably some other things). His plan involves basically waiting for us to die. No VP listed.
Havokeff. No party listed. promised to be our first Mexican/Italian president. Not sure what his platform is, but it supposedly will "ring true" with the voters. Also, he says vote for him or he'll kill you. No VP listed.
Gandalf. No party listed, running on a platform of military reorganization and foreign policy change to fund massive spending on social, energy, infrastructure, education, and healthcare reform. No VP listed.
MKSheppard of the Shepnukistani Presidential Platform v2.5. He's running on a platform of massive military reorganization, energy policy change, the environment, and space exploration reform. No VP listed.
Darth Raptor of the Technocratic Party of StarDestroyer.net. He's running on a platform of healthcare reform, energy policy change, the environment, infrastructure overhaul, foriegn policy change, and space exploration reform. No VP listed.
Zuul of the Riffage, Yeast and the End-times party, running on a platform of massive military reorganization, healthcare, education, energy, corporate law, and drug reform. Oh, and he wants to legalize prostitution too. No VP listed.
Ten candidates so far.

Vote JD Roger for president from the Common Sense party.
I'll have the common sense to put highly qualified people in my cabinet, regardless of political affiliation.
I'll have the common sense to fix our domestic situation before worrying too much more about foreign problems. Not that I'll ignore them, mind you, but I'd rather spend a bit more money on humanitarian efforts on American poor than African poor.
Maintain our standing as a military technology leader.
Education reform.
Shep as SECDEF/SECWAR (if I deign to change the title, and if he so wishes.)

My fellow SDNetizens, I humbly bid you greetings.
Do these hollow drum proposals from hot-air, fart-gas windbags truly resonate with such enlightened, educated, and clearly superior people?
Do you need your highly developed intellects insulted so?
OF COURSE YOU DON'T!
I, as candidate for the Doubleplus Fun Buttsex and Eternal War Party, offer you an honest, and realistic plan for the revitalisation, no, Renaisance of Our beloved Forums, a rebirth based on the traditional values of Freedom through Entertainment, Hardcore Pornography, and the Systematic Destruction through merciless mockery of ALL stupidity, immediately upon discovery!
Texas? Canada? Nuclear Power and overpriced fighter jets?
FANTASIES!
I offer you real and tangible things, based on a rational mindset and related directly to your experiences on this board, not role playing games!
Coupled with my vast and fearsome powers as Moderator, Senator, and GALE Force Tyrant, as President I can bring you the exceedingly delightsome fruits of Doubleplus Fun Buttsex, and Eternal War; bring them to you all!
A vote for Hipper is a vote for Fun!
I am honored for you giving me your time, thank you.

Coupled with my vast and fearsome powers as Moderator, Senator, and GALE Force Tyrant, as President I can bring you the exceedingly delightsome fruits of Doubleplus Fun Buttsex, and Eternal War; bring them to you all!
A vote for Hipper is a vote for Fun!
I am honored for you giving me your time, thank you.
Life is all the eternity you get, use it wisely.

I'm suddenly really wondering how many of the self-declared or otherwise promoted candidates actually do meet the constitutional requirements. Give me another decade and I would toss my hat in the ring but in the meantime I'll just go for Representative from Maryland's 7th.

Holiness is in right action, and courage on behalf of those who cannot defend themselves, and goodness. "

I would like to make a statement that my platform does not simply focus on such areas as crime fighting (criminals get their brains eaten), race relations (racists get their brains eaten), the separation of church and state (fundamentalists get their brains eaten), or the War on Terror (Osama bin Laden gets his brain eaten).
We also care deeply about other issues, such as immigration (braaaains) and providing universal health care (the undead are immortal, though citizens will be part of the self-aware undead horde so long as they don't fall into categories included in the first paragraph).

Who am I to continue to deny the undead of their rights and unsatisfied desires? I must throw in with Civil War Man/Zombie Sherman.

On discovering that most soldiers during the American Civil War were dying of disease rather than gunshots, he turned his mind to, rather than providing better sanitary conditions and medical care for troops, creating a machine to make sure they got shot faster.

All zombies and undead shall have a place in the Kryptonian Assembly, for it is our mission to put people to work, whether they want to or not. We have need for all kinds of workers in our Glorious land, including brain-eaters and blood-suckers. Human sla-uh, workers, shall be put to work building and maintaining our fantastic war machines to spread the enlightenment of Krypton to other nations and eventually planets. Just remember, that not voting has potentially fatal consequences.
