President for Hire


John McCain and Barak Obama are busy preparing to win the election in November, but a surprise opening has arisen and you (yes you, a 6th grader) are now on the ballot for President. Write a short speech telling what you will do as President of the United States of America. What will you change? How? What will you make better? Why? Make your speech convincing so everyone will want to vote for you!

I will make the our country stronger than any other country has been before. I will make sure the US is ready for any surprise attacks This nation will take care of creation by using solar, wind, water, and other powers like those. Our country will win the war in Iraq. We will send more missionaries to Africa, Asia, and Europe etc. The US will prosper and our language will grow. We will not waste money. The taxes will go down, the gas prices will go down and we will start drilling oil. We will be more business friendly. Marriage is between 1 man and 1 woman and there will be no abortion!

If I ran for president, I would want the country to get along with other countries. So that our country wouldn’t fight other countries! Other people would learn about different cultures and languages. I would also lower the cost of gas, and taxes. So our country would not haft to waste money/ paper. I would also set up a petition for animals, who need a home or loving and care. I would also treat everyone as equals. So no one would be treated poorly. Our nation would use reusable resources, like paper, plastic, and use solar powered things, like lights. And I would also use windmills for power.

My fellow Americans, my name is Matthew and I was recently added to the ballot because of my forward thinking. I would take a closer look at our health coverage. Many sick people and children don’t have coverage. I would make sure that everyone has better health care, so sick people can get better. I will work with the doctors to come up with different plans of coverage. Also, I will dig for oil in our country so we are less depended on others countries. We have enough resources here in America. Please vote for a new leader to make things better for you, Americans. Thank you for your support.

Hello people of an America. I’ am Natalie Beck and I am on the ballot to be president. These are some of things that I want to change in the world to make it a better place. I would like to dig more wholes to get oil and then gas will be cheaper. In Africa I would have better relationships with government of Africa so people that live there would have better homes, heather food, and better care when people are sink. You could make better choices and have God in those choices .Have freedom of speech and have good schools and choices to work and have a safe country.

“I, Jonathan Dobberfuhl, am running for President. I will lower taxes, lower the price of gas, and put sports tickets a new price… FREE!! My running mate is JW and we, as a team are going to dominate this election. As you already know, Peter Hoppe is also running for President. You shall not vote for Peter because if he wins your life will be dreadful, and you will be poor because all he does is raise taxes, raise the price of gas, and eat potato chips. You decide… if you want a happy life, vote for me and JW but if you want to become poor, vote for Peter but if I were you, it would be a NO-BRAINER. Vote for Jonathan to become President and vote for JW to become Vice President.”

Hello Americans my name is Tyce Mentzel. I have alot of new changes to make for our country. I would like to lower taxes by 50%, So that everyone could have a cool car when we turn sixteen. I would also keep the driving age at sixteen. I would also lower gas prices so everyone could afford to cruise around town as much as they want. I would also make the school year shorter so we could enjoy our summers. I would also kick all of the principals out of the school and let the kids rule. We would have no wellness plan so we could have awesome sugary desserts at lunch. That's what I would do if you voted for me.

So, right in the middle of McCain and Obama’s restless campaign a new candidate comes me. I would try to spread vehicles that ran on Renewable recourses. Like solar, water, and possibly wind. After we’re settled on those resources we would stop buying oils from South America and Saudi Arabia. I would stop fighting with other countries and the U.S.A. would become a peaceful country. I would also help make the war vehicles run on renewable resources too. We would improve our weapons in case we absolutely needed to go to war, but still I would try to avoid all possibilities of War. This is what I would run for if I was running for president.

If I ran president I would change some things about our country. First I would make sure there are people looking for cancer and other types of medical illnesses. Second I would make the gas prices go down to what they were before like $2.00 and resolve the problems we have with other countries and be friends with everyone. Third I would get rid of drugs and gangs plus you can only have a certain amount of alcohol. Fourth the last one but not least I would find homes for children in orphanages and get homes for pets in the humane society. Please consider my candidacy.

I would make no taxes. And give you a choice you would like to get bills or not. I would let children start school at the age of 9. I would have my vice president be Sarah Palin. People could work or not and get money from the government. Children would have to be born. I would make gas free. As Bryka Peterson states gas prices should be 1.00$ per gallon. Cars would cost $1000 and houses would cost $20000. I want to make peace with the world and not have anything to do with war. I hope you vote for me.

As President I would like to make this country a better place. Today I am going to talk about the economy! The gas prices are way too high these days. When I become president I will promise you lower gas prices! Now I will talk about taxes, I really think we should do some thing about it so I would put lots of pay tolls in because I don’t think it’s fair that you have to make someone who doesn’t drive pay taxes for the roads! So please let me make this world a better place by voting for me Kyle Marks!

Hello fellow Americans I know that you may be angry about Mr. Bush’s speech last night. I would put a stop to that I would have a separate channel to post breaking news. I also would try to help the economy by producing more fuel efficient cars. I would try to get our country out of the financial pit we are in. I will listen to you if you have an idea on how to help I will listen as best as I can. I will promote non violent communities and try to hire more police workers. I am fore warning you we are going into a great depression #2 and with me as President we will fight back. Thank You!

If I were president of the United States, I would make all the cars run on solar power so we could stop depending on foreign oil. I would also make farmers grow corn for food and not fuel so food prices would become more affordable around the world. I don’t know enough about what the president does or needs to get done to know how to help change the way things are done. I would make the way government works a whole lot simpler and to be honest I wouldn’t want to be president because it would be too overwhelming and not a whole lot of fun

Dear fellow classmates, I don’t think that I would make a very good President---however, if by some strange happening I would end up there, there are many changes I would like to make in our world that we live in. I would do something to make the gas prices lower so that people are not affected like they are. I hear my Mom & Dad talk about high taxes; I think that something should change there too. Also, there are people who don’t have medical coverage and that just isn’t right, everyone should be able to get the medical attention that they need to stay in good healthy. And, I would not allow them to eliminate the saying “In God We Trust”! We need God in our lives!

Dear Fellow Americans, this is the time of war between us and Iraq. Do we have to go on about this war? Let’s just move our troops out and then move in with full forces to win the battle! Next, the price of gas has gone up because of the hurricane. We got to come over this time of great lack of gas and stop wondering about it. We got to use a different fuel that is not corn or gas. When we use corn our gases will go up. We do not want this! My scientists have just found a way to use pedals and legs to power cars! (Not really)We can stop using gas and help our planet. After that since the war is over the taxes will go down! People will stop having to pay so high taxes! Then if we use the gas money we can build a force field around the USA so nothing can hurt us! We won’t stop with anything with me Peter Hoppe as President.
(I approve this massage.)

This year I, Abby am running for president of the United States of America. I am proud to be apart of the republican party and think I would be great at serving the country I love as president. Some reasons that I would be a great president are, I am very patriotic, conservative, and am strongly against abortion and think that it is wrong and that we as Americans should give babies a chance at life. Some important changes need to be made in America and I as president will do just that. One of the main changes I will make is lowering the gas prices. I will do this by not depending so much on foreign oil but instead using our country’s natural resources that God has given us to use. So vote for me. And if you don’t vote for me vote for McCain/Palin. You can’t go wrong with republicans!

If I were president I would make gas cheaper by making us dig more for oil and purchase oil from China for backup oil so it can stay at $2.00. I would have no wars by signing a treaty with all countries. I would let all people in poverty get a home and triple the missionary trips and get jobs for every body. I would have school for everybody no speed limits on the highway. You would have to go to college for at least one year. All foreign country trips should be checked for drugs. Gangs are prohibited. And every community is under police men. That’s what would happen if I was president.

If I was President, the first thing I would do is TAKE OVER THE WORLD, MWA HA HA HA! So then we wouldn't have to depend on foreign oil because It would be ours. Another thing I would do is Give Randy Moss, Eli Manning, Reggie Bush, and Terrell Owens to the Packers so they would DESTROY the other teams. I also would Make it so everyone would have a pet puppy and they would all be free. I also would Make teachers give thirty minutes in class to do homework. Also, I would give 999,999,999,999,999,999,999,999,999999,999,999,999,999,999,999,999,999 dollars to invent a teleporter that could take you any where inseconds so you could go to China, (which would now be part of the U.S. since we took it over.) in a few seconds. The last thing I would do is make footpall and basketball the national pasttime since baseball is kind of boring. My vice presidents would be Wesley and Mary since they both rock. Also every one would be christians.

If you vote for me I will set up a breed and release program for endangered and threatened animals. I would also help homeless and poor people. I would also lower the price on solar cars so we could buy them and not worry about gas. I would make recess and gym longer. I would give money to research cures for cancer, diabetes heart dieses and strokes. Give more grants to collage students. Help disasters like hurricanes, floods, tornados and tsunamis. Clean up oceans, rivers and lakes and reduce pollution. I would be a president that listens to the citizens and found solutions to their problems. So vote for me!

My name is JW and I am running for president of this great nation! If I’m elected your president, I would have scientists work on renewable fuels. This will help us to use less gasoline so the price will decrease. We will also become less dependent on foreign countries for our oil supply. I would also have scientist work on different energy sources like wind and solar power. This will help our environment because there will be less pollution. I will help the poor and homeless by having a program to build more houses for the homeless. I will also work very hard to end the war. We need all of our soldiers to come home safe because they have fought hard to make the world safe for all of us! So please vote for me, JW, because I will do all this and more to make the United States become even a better place!

If I were president I would lower gas prices so that people do not have to pay so much just to get to work. I also would make it so women make the same amount of money as men do especially when they are doing the same jobs. I would make sure all the roads have no pot holes and would be fixed so that people would not get into accidents. Furthermore, I would make hospital bills half the price they are now. If I were president I would be honest and trustworthy. Everyone would be able to count on me and my word.
