As a matter of fact I hope to get into politics someday. It will probably never happen but I plan on running for as high of an office as possible here in the state of Utah when I get older.
I figure with a military background it doesn't hurt my chances. I have worked and currently work in the Health Care industry, my wife is a registered nurse, and although I have changed my major I am now going after a History degree.
So I think down the road when im in my 50's that would probably been decent enough "experience" to run on. The question will be money and obviously ratcheting up enough support to even get on the ballot.
So obviously the chance to be President would be something I would jump at in a heartbeat. Im not an expert on a lot of different things, so my first order of business would be surrounding myself with people who are experts in all the different areas that I would need.
It would be a bi-partisan cabinet. Ones political affiliation wouldn't matter because quite frankly I would be in charge and would be the one making the final decisions. I would simply want to hear all sides of the argument before making the tough decisions that a President has to make.
I wont bore you guys with anything else, because lord knows ill never be President of the United States....Especially not as an Atheist lol, but still I would most definitely do it, and would surround myself with people not afraid to speak their minds and from all different walks of life and beliefs and levels of expertise so that I could keep partisan politics out of the picture and try to do my best to make informed decisions.
