Ordinarily some one here would remind you that there is a Congress, but it turns out Congress is moot. It is true that Constitutionally speaking, the President has very little power, and nearly all power is in Congress's hands. Practically speaking, however, you, as President, can do whatever you want, and Congress won't stop you. That's because it only takes one Senator to kill any bill with the cloakroom filibuster which takes 60 votes to overcome. And there is no possibility of getting 60 votes on anything except Bills needed for Senators to get a paycheck. With the cloakroom filibuster in place Congress is like a paraplegic trying to win an Olympic medal in gymnastics, I just ain't going to happen...
So go ahead, get yourself elected President and change whatever you want using an executive orders, except the filibuster of course, which you can't change! Ignore Congress. If your order is challenged in Court, which it won't be, just delay, then appeal every ruling. You'll be dead before anything happens to stop you. Make sure you only appoint acting agency heads so you can fire them whenever you feel like it. If you make a mistake just lie or blame someone else. You'll get to live in a nice house and spend most of your time playing golf or watching TV. You can get away with anything when you're president so long as you give major corporations, the NRA, talk radio hosts, and any evangelical organization headquartered in Colorado Springs whatever they want no matter how screwy it is.
Colorado Springs – U.S. News has dubbed Colorado Springs the “Vatican of evangelical Christianity.” The Los Angeles Times proclaimed it “ground zero” for the religious right, and Harper’s magazine characterized the city as a “utopia in the making” for evangelicals.
While Colorado Springs is home to more than 100 evangelical Christian groups, from mom-and-pop outfits to the powerful Focus on the Family led by James Dobson, longtime residents and city insiders say the perception of evangelical domination is an oversimplification that has harmed the community economically, keeping businesses, medical professionals and tourists away.
