Nothing that can be repeated in polite company. I have nothing positive or complimentary to say to either of the front runners. I will be more than happy to lay my opinions upon them as to what needs to happen during their term in office though.

Thanks for the microphone COL Mikel J. Burroughs. Two things at the top of the list, 1) Energy independence, 2) Debt reduction. Solve those problems and we will have the working capital to attack all the rest of our problems.

Mark, If you look at our National Debt level pre and post Obama, the numbers clearly indicate that not only has our debt drastically increased under the Obama administration, expensive Social Services (ie. Food Stamps, Health Credits, Housing Allowances, etc.) have also achieved record levels. If the GOP are the only ones guilty of deficit spending, Why did these numbers increase under 8 years of a Democratic administration?? Obama refused to even present a national budget to congress during his first term. Obamacare, with the multi-digit premium increases, will become even more expensive to subsidize, adding to the already un-sustainable deficit level. The GOP is also guilty of over spending, and the foreign policy in the Middle East has been a cluster-fuck since before 9-11, however, the time has come to quit blaming Bush for the dismal performance of 8 years of the the Obama administration. The POTUS elect is not a politician, he is a experienced businessman, who understands the dangers of the growing national debt, not only to the financial markets, but our basic national sovereignty. Let's give the boy a chance, the country has given him the tools in the form of a political mandate. He says he is not a politician, lets see if he does not act like one. DRAIN THE SWAMP, BABY.

That protecting and securing the ground upon which we and our current families stand on is more important than any other piece of land on this earth. It's only after your home and country is secure and prosperous should you begin engaging in conflicts on behalf of the helpless. No Syrian refugee should be sleeping in a house while any Veteran or American sleeps on the street.

COL Mikel J. Burroughs I don't think anything I could do or say would change the course of the next 4 years. We need more than the POTUS to change things and I don't feel either side will ever be on the same page. We don't have to want the same things, but we do have to keep in mind they work for us and we have moved that around over time. No one understands checks and balances and politics has degenerated to mud slinging the best as opposed to who will deal most effectively with issues.

Maj Marty Hogan I think the country has way too many issues for one man or woman to contend with and Congress in my opinion really has gotten away from meeting the needs of the people - they meet their own needs for re-election and power - just an opinion! I agree with you on your point above!

The big problem is that often people don't see their own elected representatives as part of "the problem." It's other people's representatives who are the problem. That's how these loons keep getting sent back every election.
We need a large movement of people focusing on the fact that all politicians are employed by the people who elect them and who seek to hold them accountable.

As a Christian nation we have an obligation to defend those who cannot defend themselves and help those who cannot help themselves. The operative word however is "cannot" not "will not". Also, keep in mind that the world is a multi-cultural environment and not all cultures move at the same pace. Steady pressure will win the race much more easily than radical deployment of even the right answer. We can take a lot of clues from President Reagan's style without having to emulate his every decision. May God bless our President, our country, and our people.

I've thought about this quite a bit lately. The first thing I would say...Don't let down the men and women of the Military Services. Improve Military Intelligence. Restore the Constitution as the essential foundation of law. Bring back a strong sense of patriotism that we have lost for the last 8 years. Improve the lot of Veterans. Allow and promote the American People's right and obligation to defend this country and each other.

Dear Mr. President ,
You have an opportunity to show the world that you are a champion for the people of the U.S.
You talk about making America great again . You promised no SSI cuts , medicare cuts , will take care of our veterans and better health care for all Americans . If you stand by those claims you made you will be a champion . But personally I don't think you intend to honor your claims . You boast about bringing jobs to America and penalizing any corp. that leaves to make their product with cheap labor outside our boarders so they can sell it in the U.S. for bigger profit You also want to use American workers and no more work visas to non-citizens that work for cheaper wages . While in fact you manufacture products over seas and sell them here in the U.S. Your company has recently applied for work visas for non-citizens to work for cheap wages at one of your winery's .You sir are bold for making claims like that campaigning all the while making your cheap Chinese neck ties to sell here and hiring non-citizens to work on your different projects here in the U.S. It is important to you that the Trump brand shines the most at what ever endeavor it is involved with .
With your actions so far , making false claims and calling them alternative facts .Not properly separating yourself from you businesses . You are on par to be the 1st president to be impeached and removed from office and the would mean you would be the sorriest president in history . Stand by your campaign promises and we the people will have your back . As bad as I think you will be , you are a lot better than your back up will be . The G.O.P. is chomping at the bit to impeach you and get their guy in there . We can't afford for you to be forced out . You are all that stands in the way of the G.O.P. and their aggressive agenda to gut the constitution and break the backs of the middle class . PROVE ME WRONG . STOP PAYING ATTENTION TO THE TRIVIAL . WHO THE F#%K CARES ABOUT THE SIZE OF THE CROWD AT YOUR INAUGURATION AND YOU LOST THE POPULAR VOTE BUT WON THE PRESIDENCY . LEAVE IT ALONE . You seem more concerned about bullshit when there are more important issues the P.O.T.U.S. needs to focus on . Anyways , you made history .Weather you will be a historical president that is compared to Washington , Jefferson ,any Roosevelt , or Lincoln or an embarrassment to the U.S. I believe it will be the latter . Your narcissism and inability to acknowledge the truth will be your downfall . Man up . You are not as great as you think you are . You will make mistakes . Man up and account for your actions because a president that throws blame to others instead of accepting responsibility is a disgrace and should himself be ran over by a bus . GOD BLESS THE U.S. And SEMPER FIDELIS .
