**__If I were President__**

Have you ever thought of being president? You haven't? Maybe after I finish you will take a moment and think about it. Who knows? Maybe you will think about running for president. Not necessarily president of the U.S.A, but starting small like a staff president and working your way up.If I were president I would work on the environment, global warning, peace, disaster struck countries, and the economy. Have you ever thought of where global warning could take us in this world? Well think of this. The resources we have now will be cut down to 25%. Will there even be a seventh continent or will Antartica be melted? Will there be polar bears for our kids to see? Just think about it for awhile. We t hink of saving for college, cars, weddings, and etc. What about saving resources for our kids for decades to come? We need to act now! Not only would I make decisions, I would stick to them too, even if other people did not like my choices. Let's say if someone came up to me and I were president and they said that they didn't like my decision I would say that it was my choice and I made it. ​ On to the violence. Now violence everywhere needs to be stopped now. The shooting toll rises every minute of every day. You would think this toll should be lowered. At least I would hope you would want it to be lowered. If we all helped a little we could get a lot done about all of this violence. Do we really want our kids growing up in gangs? I'm sure I wouldn't want my kid to. We need to stop the violence now. What we need to do is take a look at the Brady Bill. The Brady Bill is a bill that people have to be checked before buying a handgun, and how Jim Brady was shot in the head and parilized for life. Do we want a repeat of that? Plus bullies have tortured kids to where they have used suicide you would think that after the first case of what people call "bullied to death" it would tell people that hey you know what bullying needs to be stopped but no. people need to stop bullying now not tomorrow, not the next day, but now. I suppose you have heard of Air Force 1, but if you haven't it is any aircraft the president rides in. Did you know that Dwight D. Eisenhower was the first to ride in an Air Force One? (which by the way was a helicopter!) So you have heard about the earthquakes in Chile, Turkey, and Haiti. Well I would send food, water, clothing, and money. I would plan on making more allies. I would give peace talks to get more allies. I also would meet with the other leaders to discuss issues. To help the economy first I would not spend alot of money on things we don't need, I would help people by putting for jobs out, and I would give people better salaries so the homelessness toll does not go up. The last thing someone wants to do is lose their job. You could also help other people out. even the smallest things can help people out. So if you ever become president think of the enviroment, economy, and everything else I told you about.
