Letter to the Future President

Dear Future President, You must be organized and set goals and achievements for yourself that you know you can accomplish. There are so many things that need fixing in America: the tax code, immigration system, entitled spending, national debt, health care, education systems, and much more. Top executives set aggressive goals and achieve them and that is what you must do. You must have real life experiences that are not just evolved around politics. Having “a small loan of a million dollars” is not what real life is. You must be in touch with your people and understand THEIR way of life. You also have to be a master negotiator. We need someone who can negotiate other countries and form deals that will benefit America as a whole. It’s a competitive world out there, you must do whatever it takes to win. Right now America is ranked 14th for education, 4th for innovation, and first for obesity. It is your job to fight and keep America in that place or drop us from that place. You have to make the right calls for America and be in it for the long-run. You should be honest, don’t sugar coat things and tell us straight up what we should look out for. You must be tolerant of others and accepting difference but still treat them like everyone else. If you mess up, own up to it and do not blame it on others. We’re all human, mistakes happen but don’t make the same one again. All in all, the next president should be the best, even though there reputation doesn't own up to them.
