Some of Timmy's are OK.
But they fail to include the most obvious - getting rid of the "natural born" requirement for President.
Which ones? Which ones aren't?

What residency requirement should we replace it with? 20 years? Half of his/her life?
It is far better for the truth to tear my flesh to pieces, then for my soul to wander through darkness in eternal damnation.

Jet: So what kind of woman is she? What's Julia like?
Faye: Ordinary. The kind of beautiful, dangerous ordinary that you just can't leave alone.
Jet: I see.
Faye: Like an angel from the underworld. Or a devil from Paradise.

I'd give way more powers to the President so he could get things done without being held up by a do-nothing Congress.

Fortunately for you the Presidents just do this anyway.

He's a sell-out :glare:  Repping his landed English gentry great-grandmother or whatever rather than his cousins down on La Isla Encantada..
