A Modest Proposal for Democratic Presidental Hopefuls




How does this sound?

Let’s say that there are five or six of you vying to be President in 2028.


You all meet, now, August 2026, confer, argue, and agree among yourselves to hit the road together, tour America, and share your collective plans for fixing the jackpot we find ourselves in at present.

This could be the most popular road show ever!!!!


Don’t upstage, don’t command, don’t showboat - talk collectively on the plans you agree on, going so far as to express precisely what you’re going to do.


Focus, and speak to, how you are going to help lift the challenges of inflation, health care, housing, education, etc., zeroing in on exact solutions, including raising taxes to furnish Americans with the peace of mind that they have a future.


For instance: ( just a couple of ideas/examaples )


We will return the 40 billion-plus and the 86% of programs eliminated by the Trump administration from USAID.

We will re-fund Biomedical Grants: Competitive grants awarded by the NIH dropped by more than half during the administration’s push, reducing support for thousands of active scientific and medical projects. 

Support Disease and Demographic Fields: Major disease areas and targeted study fields saw sharp reductions, including a 31% drop in newly funded projects related to women’s health, alongside cuts to cancer and mental health research. 

Support Global and Infectious Disease Programs: International initiatives, such as USAID and PEPFAR HIV/AIDS treatment and research sites, faced widespread closures and funding terminations. 


Of course there are a lot of other issues. Gaza, Ukraine, NATO, etc. etc., but stick to domestic issues as much as possible.


Okay, I suggest you all agree on Cabinet positions. 

Example: Talk to Jack Smith to ensure he wants to be AG. If he does, you all agree to give him that position?

You can see where this is going... figure this out now, and, if able, name the people you want to work with in 2029.

Let America see your plans.
