If I Were President ....
Danny Glover would ban "extreme consumerism," hire a comedian to warm up the Congress for State of The Union, and use his power to create a spirit of "I Am My Brother's Keeper."
Mos Def would have universal free health care, education, and housing. And he'd pay for this with a 10% Flat Tax, that's it. Except if you have a lot of money and don't engage in community service, then you'd pay more. And mandatory voting. From home, online, or from wherever you play Lotto. Be a good Jedi.

Nice use of the subjunctive. Barbara the grammar nazi says thank you.
I love Good Is. Something about the whole concept cracks me up. I never think about what I would do if I were the President. I occasionally hum the tune to if I were a rich man, though. |

Not sure how he'd pay for all that stuff though. These remind me of Jr. high elections, "I promise free pop and 1 hour recesses!!"
