John Steiner, a wise voice that I listen to, suggests that I put this forward for discussion, as a "platform" for others to consider in their deliberations and participation in the now beginning electoral process.

Over the course of the past decade, as I have turned to non-fiction reading and reflections on integrity and intelligence, I have come to realize just how corrupt the US Government is at the political level, and how compliant the good people are that are trapped within a very bad system.
Below are the seven promises I would demand of anyone who aspires to be President of the United States of America. I know of no one else who can credibly commit to these seven promises.
1. Electoral Reform (9 points, 1 page)<http://www.phibetaiota.net/2010/12/reference-election-reform-one-page-nine-points/>
2. End of taxation, implement Automated Payment Transaction (APT) Tax<http://www.phibetaiota.net/2011/04/us-goverment-2011-revenue-costs-debt/>
3. Select a Coalition Cabinet prior to the primaries, to participate in general debates<http://www.huffingtonpost.com/robert-david-steele/virtual-president-announc_b_745022.html>
4. Create a balanced budget using participatory budgeting that fully engages all voters<http://www.oss.net/dynamaster/file_archive/081206/cdebd4773282bd9f0562938cc57890ba/A%2d00%2d05%20Balanced%20Budget%20101%204.5.doc>
5. Full Employment for all US citizens, retooling for sustainable resilience <http://duckduckgo.com/?q=full+employment+sustainable>
6. Illegal workers will be deported at the expense of those who hired them with 100X fine<http://duckduckgo.com/?q=illigal+workers+employers+expense>
7. End of Empire<http://www.phibetaiota.net/2010/11/2010-the-ultimate-hack-re-inventing-intelligence-to-re-engineer-earth-chapter-for-counter-terrorism-book-out-of-denmark/>, global Autonomous Internet<http://www.phibetaiota.net/2011/04/autonomous-internet/>, empower the five billion poor with free cell phones<http://www.phibetaiota.net/2011/04/2010/12/2010-m4is2-briefing-for-south-america/>, free access to call centers and virtual networks that educate “one cell call at a time,” commit to total transparency, “true cost” economics<http://duckduckgo.com/?q=true+cost+economics>, the eradication of corruption<http://www.phibetaiota.net/2011/04/search-cost-of-corruption-corruption-recap/>, and an end to US Government coddling of the 42 of 44 dictators that are “best pals” of the corrupt political-financial “elite”<http://www.phibetaiota.net/2003/11/breaking-the-real-axis-of-evil-how-to-oust-the-worlds-last-dictators-by-2025/>who have destroyed the Republic<http://www.phibetaiota.net/2011/02/why-isnt-wall-street-in-jail-us-fraud-recap/>for their own selfish benefits. Somewhere in here, create the Open Source Agency<http://www.phibetaiota.net/2010/11/reference-open-source-agency-osa/>under diplomatic auspices, shut down the dysfunctional secret intelligence community<http://www.phibetaiota.net/2010/12/graphic-tony-zinni-on-4-at-best/>, rebalance the instruments of national power<http://www.phibetaiota.net/2011/02/2008/05/2008-rebalancing-the-instruments-of-national-power-army-strategy-conference-of-2008-notes-summary-article/>, and redirect defense spending<http://www.phibetaiota.net/2011/02/2001/07/2001-threats-strategy-and-force-structure-an-alternative-paradigm-for-national-security/>to the four forces after next<http://www.phibetaiota.net/2011/04/2011/01/graphic-four-forces-after-next-with-io/> .
There is nothing here about confiscation of ill-gotten gains. Confiscating all that money would be a waste of time because even if distributed it would be a few dollars for every poor person. What matters is that we start doing the right things now. In combination, the APT Tax and the eradication of the false inflated prices for the 75 top drugs bought by Medicare (available for 1% of what we pay to those outside the USA) will wipe out the deficit, rebuild America, and fully fund an Open Source Agency<http://www.phibetaiota.net/2010/11/reference-open-source-agency-osa/>and a $250 billion a year Program 50 (Diplomacy & Development).
I am looking for a Presidential candidate that will make these seven promises. If one cannot be found, I am available and mobile. What does it say about a country when not a single person now serving can credibly make these seven promises?
