They have already won the lottery, if you will…
Chosen Answer:
While a second-term President will likely be less cautious in pushing certain issues, unless both houses of Congress are also led by the same party, we could well perpetuate the deadlocked, do-nothing Congress we’ve had to deal with since the onset of the extreme Tea people.
A second term for this Administration would probably mean the Dream Act would become law, increasing our tax base which is sorely needed to offset the aging Boomer generation retiring. It would also probably mean eliminating BILLIONS in oil company subsidies which is money down the drain literally. Hopefully tax rates will be reinstated to Clinton-era standards so that our debt will be paid down and deficits balanced like it was before Bush-Cheney takeover. Freedom of choice would probably become law. Habeus Corpus was reinstated by this Admin. Alternate energy sources would probably double again. Public funds would be given only to public schools hopefully. Unions would remain intact but possibly modified. Schoolteachers would go back to work. Unemployment would continue dropping from 14% to 8% to 6%. Highways, bridges, trains would be built. Women would receive equal pay. Everyone would have health insurance like all the other leading countries. We will continue having clean air and water. Corporate welfare would end. Wall Street/banks/ins cos would be better regulated to prevent the same debacle Bush-Cheney created. Student loans will be cheaper because the middle-man has been cut out. Education will be better. The Doomsday Clock will be moved back again and maybe, our President will be nominated for another Peace Prize.
