You are the king of America for a year, what do you do?

[Odin]

HOLY COW Frankychan, I thought I was super-liberal, you da man!

[alofatti]

Yep, I had my list of proposals but all of them were already covered by frankychan.

May I add
16- Jail for George W. Bush, Cheney and Paul O'Neil?
Oh! I forgot, this is already implied by 4...

[KrazyHorse]

free all prisoners on condition they leave the United States never to return

Yes, we all know that other countries want your problems.

You want to do good and make America/the world a better place

I'd move the entire population of the US to Central Africa and vice versa. No possessions will be transferred. Think of it as walking a mile in another man's shoes.

You speak as if with experince, care to enlighten us about walkin in anothers shoes?

Nevermind.

First of all Vesayen, why is it only domestic politics with the Americans? On what planet do you live? There's a world out there you know. I know you're a little cut off geographically, but cheese... Self-absorbed, protectionist, isolationist, only had selfish reasons when you finally involved yourself in WW2. Had to be attacked on your own ground. Just not good enough!

Since Norwegians were the first to discover America around 1000 AD I would allow America to get associate status to Norway. The same way Puerto Rico is to America.

Don't even bother contending "who 1st discovered America" with me. I know more than most ppl on the subject. Period.

Norwegian laws would apply so you could have the chance of being the best country in the world, as the UN has proclaimed Norway to be for the last 2 years. You could achieve the status of being a welfare-state which Norway has been for years and years and to which you're not even close! We're also one of the richest countries on earth.

Heard a silly statement the other day... Oprah W said that a woman should be lucky she was born in the USA because of the health care system I'm sure you're lucky if you have the money to pay for it like Oprah. I don't have words for such an ignorant statement.

Of course intellectualism would be promoted. There's a great deficiency in that department.

[TheStinger]

I would find out who shot Kennedy.

Ban abortion and the death Penalty( this would just be for fun to see how people, who oppose both moves would react to me)

Ban the use of the word soccer for football

Make all the senators, congressmen and the people who work for them get proper jobs

[Fidel]

raise taxes on oil, redirect the funds to clean energy projects and research. prepare a manned mission to mars. ban SUVs. start investigating US army war crimes and adopt ICC without any reservations. occassional orgy or two in the white house

[Serb]

Divide USA between Yougoslavia, Vietnam and Korea. Return Alaska to Russia.

Sit back and draw a check.

Nope. I just think it would be good for people (myself included).

1. Start initiatives to improve relations with South American countries.

2. Develop alternative energy fuel sources, and look at closer-to-home oil in the meantime (eg. Alaska, Canada, Mexico).

3. Increase penalties on corporate fraud.

4. Weaken the culture of realpolitik. No more talk of "He's our son of a *****" when people like Saddam are involved.

5. Increase restrictions on drugs and alcohol.

6. Get Bill Clinton back to be President after I step down, but remember to get a few phone numbers from him before leaving the White House.

Hey, my last edict is the most important one! Although its good to see great minds think alike.

Thanks! But a liberal in Minnesota? Never heard of that before! I just think that all these white collar CEO's deserve to pay back all the workers they screwed.....and then some.

have sex with interns of course

Make sure the government never again harbors the likes of Jesse Helms, Newt Gingrich, Trent Lott, Strom Thurmond, D!ck Armey, "W", Bob Barr, Mithc McConnell, John Breaux, Sam Nunn, Richard Shelby, Bill Clinton, or Al Gore: sell off the states of the former CSA, one by one, to the highest bidders (Alabama/Mississippi might have to be a "buy one, get one free" deal).

[Skanky Burns]

Concubines.


Oh, and improve education, increase NASA funding, remove the "big brother" element from the government, and a few other minor stuff.
