We are facing many dividing influences in each of our worlds. So many that we must collectively do triage on them all in order to do the most good.
We all have the list as we see it. We all have the lists that affect our lives the most. We should. But,
there are those that you have selected to make decisions for the states and for the country that must create lists for those states and for the country. I believe that a presidents list should look like this and I will commit all of the resources of my administration to accomplishing this reformative list with the fervor of JFK’s desire to put a man on the moon.

Let us each look deep within ourselves, deep within this society that we have been given and continue to build. We find deeply disturbing problems. That’s okay. We can fix them.

Idea: add “no confidence” to the ballot. If a candidate can’t prove their greatness to at least 51 percent of the people above the other candidate AND a “none of the above” candidate/option…they don’t deserve the highest office in the land.
Ironically, the candidates run to satisfy the minimum standards presented. Make a “confidence” vote one of the measures and they will target that and – go figure – hit it. They could, but we are not asking them to. So, they don’t shoot for that. We lose for no good reason.
The electoral process is designed to make an unknown, a strong voice with strong ideas, able to compete and win. The system is designed to find this person. The choice of IA, NH, SC and NV as first contests is evidence.
•Leaders are not acting as statesmen that are inspiring all Americans to hold to our values and resist assumptions of guilt
oThis empowers all Americans to behave the same way
oIndeed, the incessant refrain that cops are racist could well increase the likelihood that black suspects will resist arrest, and that witnesses will be reluctant to cooperate.
•These times need a leader. A person to step and say
oLeadership selection process changes
oRace relations:
There is a higher chance of getting arrested or incarcerated if your black
Areas like The per capita shooting rate in Brownsville, Brooklyn, with its legacy of poverty and crime, is 81 times higher than in working-class Bay Ridge, Brooklyn, a few miles away, according to the New York Police Department. This exponentially higher rate of gun violence means that the police will be much more intensively deployed in Brownsville, trying to protect innocent residents and gangbangers alike from shootings.

•The race divide is not a place to make your career better
