Assuming we aren't talking about nut case possible things.. just based on what he has said.
1) Healthcare for at least children, which is cheap. A double shot in one: A huge push for preventive care, about time! Do I get 3 in one? Healthcare for people born with life problems that don't deserve to be pushed aside.
2) "IF" he was to say what he says about Gov, killing un-needed programs, reducing others, from fed to state. I like the idea of a small gov that spends as little money as possible.
3) Iraq, war is war, and I don't think we should just run. But 10b a month is way off the chart and he is correct, we should be using that oil/money to pay for this, us, them, whatever. Unlike now, where we steal parts of it through corps.
4) I own several Companies, I hate that we "might" have to pay higher Corp tax. I like the idea that the loop holes will be killed. Now, if he follows up and lowers taxes because it's now "fair"...then a double shot of good.
5) And in International news: He is correct, the previous Bush policy of fuck you, does not work. Putting the proper people in place, using other Countries, and trying to work with others, actually does work. And again, if he holds to what he said, he will deal with any war problems, if needed.
Now, I tried to select 5 different things between the two.. And I tried to give you a selection of topics. I'm not saying every idea is perfect, and no he doesn't have a full list game plan for us to view (not that anyone does), but he does have ideas and his ideas in theory would work if executed correctly.
