Favorite President
Karl Kristiansen

    As far as my favorite President, I don't think he or she has been elected yet. I admire traits from various past Presidents. I like the youth and vitality of Kennedy, the "get things done" attitude of FDR, the strong military position of Reagan. As for the early Presidents that served, they all have their pluses and minuses, but having not lived back then, who knows how they really were.

    My ideal candidate would be someone, who above all, is honest with the American people. It doesn't matter what party they come from. It's like an onion, the outside layers give each one a unique appearance, but after you peel a few layers off, they all tend to look the same.

    They would also have to support a strong military and take care of our veterans and active duty dependents. I don't believe we (U.S.) can exist in this world today without a well paid, well trained and well equipped military. There are just too many nuts with a lot of money and time on their hands and a hatred for the West for us to be weak.

    It's just a fact of life and sooner or later, our leaders must face it. I also think he or she should support social programs, helpfare, NOT welfare.
