Edited on Sat Sep-13-03 12:27 AM by listenup
I am forming my committees and chairmanships and blah blah, buh blah.
What would you put on my platform? I will carry it forward for you!

Vote for Fred!

What do you want to add to the platform?

1. If you could arrange it so that children wouldn't go to bed hungry...
it would mean the world to me!

Of course, any little bit that you could do for the redistribution of wealth idea would also be greatly appreciated!

Go Fred! :yourock:

2. If Fred is elected there will never be another
hungry child, adolescent or adult in this country. Period. That's at the top of the list.

4. Fred also believes
that instead of spending enough money to go to the moon and back for "defense"

We should invest 10% of all tax revenue in the inner cities. Starting small businesses, creating huge "enterprise zones."

Fred believes in the small businessman and the power to create!

6. No Child or other Person will ever go hungry
if Fred is elected. Divert one percent of the defense budget for homelessness and shelter, and it is no longer a problem.

12. I think it's because Fred refers to himself in the 3rd person.
Nobody wants to vote for a candidate with mental illness.

13. Fred's Economic Plan
Take the top 1% of income producing schmuckwads. and non-politely ask them to pay their workers 90% of their earnings for the year. They will still be wealthy bastards, and the workers will have an incentive to produce.
