The President has been kidnapped by ninjas

Are you a bad enough dude to rescue the President

Actually, this is a serious thread. Imagine that the US President, Vice President, Speaker of the House, and President pro Tempore suddenly disappear without a trace. For whatever reason, the US decides to appoint you as President for a four-year term. Congress then sends you a message that says that it will pass any bill that you will submit to it.

You are sworn into office. How do you go about picking a Cabinet? How about dealing with the economic crisis? The War in Iraq? Other issues? In short, what do you do?

And no, you can't resign.

Holy crap what if ninjas get me too
I'm making a giant concrete wall with guards, lasers and giant mutated patrolling bears around the White House.
Then I call the troops back from Iraq to defend me.

I'd put Chuck Norris as my secretary of defense and appoint Schwarzenegger, Sylvester Stallone, Steven Seagal, Batman and Stephen Hawking at other offices. I'd also hire pirates as my personal bodyguards.

And even that wouldn't make me safe...

You could always just kill yourself - that way the ninjas will never get you.

I'm guessing you mean the US.

Well, as a president, I would quietly wait for the puppeteers to come make me an offer, like every sane president does.

In all seriousness, you probably don't want to know.  My actions would be at best contriversial, and at worst probably make many other dictators look like boy/girl scouts.

My FIRST order of business would be to start bringing all US troops, no matter where they were stationed, home.  My second order of business would be to yank the 'golden parachute' for those big companies, and use the money to start up small competing companies.  Next would be to retroactively 'fine' any business that outsourced jobs, and give tax breaks to any company (forein or not) that created jobs in America.  Every company, without exceptions, would be visited randomly several times and every one of their workers would have to produce legitimate IDs.

However, legal immigration would be made easier.  Marijuana (spelling?) would be made legal and taxed.  As would prostitution (and not just on the outskirts of Nevada).  I would fund alternative fuel experiments, and fund American Automakers reasearch (only) into more fuel efficient cars.

I would set aside 100 million dollars.  Any individual that completely ends our dependance on oil for cars AND other energy areas, would receive that AND still maintain the rights to the technology.  Other things like cures for cancer, aids, etc would also be rewarded with a similar ammount.  Universal health care would be implimented and prices strongly regulated to keep costs down.  Profit would be fine, 500% markup would be not.

And that would be in my first week.

This was supposed to be an OSM-serious thread...

Okay, so I'm taken into the Oval Office. I have my aides call up Paul Volcker, Alan Greenspan, Robert Rubin, Lew Rockwell, and a few others, and I'd have them advise me on economic policy. Then I'd have Robert Gates to Defense, and have Ron Paul, Colin Powell, and George Shultz to advise me on foreign policy.

Then I would order all subsidies to be eliminated, and any new ones to be reviewed. Immediately, I would also eliminate all tariffs, quotas, and price and wage controls, including the minimum wage. Then I would order all troops in Iraq and Afghanistan to come home, and start closing down bases around the world, as well as cutting aid to Israel.

I would then lift the moratorium on stem-cell research, and legalize all voluntary exchange and contracts between individuals (including prostitution, same-sex marriage, and marijuana). Then I would cut spending on the army, though keep it the same for the navy and air force.

Then I would raise the gas tax, pairing it with an income tax cut. I would raise the retirement age. Then I would repeal the PATRIOT Act, and stop all torture and secret prisons.

Then would come the more major reforms. Immigration reform would abolish sanctuary cities and allow the deportation of anyone found to be an illegal immigrant, as well as taking away birthright citizenship. It would also expand the guest worker program, and allow anyone with a marketable skill to get a greencard. Health care reform would pay for some percentage of all expenses, depending on the expense and the person's income - but never 100%. Then I would fund education more heavily, add merit pay, and promote separate classes for advanced students.

I would then abolish the electoral college. After that, the heavy work being done, the country would hate me now , and I would wait for additional changes to come up.

Mytical:
With all due respect, I hope you never become President. Price controls? Stopping outsourcing? Universal health care? No. Though all the other things sound quite reasonable.

Yes, because if you have $5 and Chuck Norris has $5, then you really have $0 and Chuck Norris has as much as he wants.

And with the abolition of minimum wage, you can just sit back and watch your country's standard hit the rock bottom and corporations making themselves a successful, healthy, feudal environment filled with all those jolly little 90-year-old (you raised the retirement age) people human resources getting repressed by police (which already practiced beating techniques on all those immigrants you finally allowed them to hate) for protesting for low wages and legal junkies clashing with their kids on the streets at night, along with black and Hispanic underground illegal rebel movements (oh and, since there's no universal healthcare, goodbye kidneys ^^)
