If I was the president of America instead of Obama...

President of the United States of America- this identity means “Ultimate Power” as the whole world is confined around the Super Power- USA. Along with power comes up responsibility and if I was the President of the US, there would be few changes in all areas I would like to bring about.
The few changes to look at would be first the Educational System that has degraded with time and America once known for its excellent education standards, now is spliced between the Private and Public schools while the little kids even if at the same age, enjoy a great difference in the standards of teaching and this divides the young ones with an air of superiority and this brings the initial difference that makes it difficult to unite the nation as 1, and the basics lay here. The nations offering free education impart quality education, while teachers have the right attitude to teach than make money as a Business, and there is more of practical knowledge that needs to be imparted than just believing whatever is said and I would make sure each and every citizen knows how to read and write. Rather than only taking care of only the beaming world, I would focus on every nook and corner to reach out every single person and assure him a home to stay.
The rate of foreign students being mysteriously murdered in the span of 1 year is not a very light incident and I would take care of securing the students, especially the foreign and the judiciary would be stricter and as the crime rate is elevating especially with a lot of youth being in it, I would make the security and the Police department more stronger with latest aids in terms of technology and an effective Intelligence team.
War on Drugs: Another major problem is the amount of drug abuse and like the late Harry Browne used to say, "America needs to end its insane war on drugs." The horrible damage the "War on Drugs" has done to America is already much greater than most realize. It has populated our prisons with people that have done no crime against anyone while drugs worth millions of dollars are being consumed rendering the youth of USA incapable while they lead their life to death..
Health: Health issues is another neglected sector where people these days prefer flying to cheaper nations to avail their medical treatment, even if they have a medical insurance back in USA. The bitter truth is thatA third of college graduates say they or a family member skipped recommended medical care because of cost.
• Half of people in insured families say their coverage does not cover all the care they need at a price they can afford.
• People of color, including 75 percent of African Americans and 76 percent of Latinos, are especially likely to voice dissatisfaction with health care quality.
• And a shocking 84 percent predict the standard of living will be worse for the next generation.


Seventy-one percent of the insured worry about losing coverage because they may lose or change jobs.
• Almost two-thirds (61 percent) who have employer-provided coverage say their costs have gotten worse.
• Ninety-five percent of people with insurance are dissatisfied with health care costs, and 62 percent of them are dissatisfied with health care quality.
• Ninety-four percent of the insured say the health care system needs fundamental change or to be rebuilt
Being the President I would take care to avail medical facilities at a cheaper rate after being subsidized by the Government and the Insurance policies need to be revised, covering all conditions, else they will not be allowed to make Business. We also need to focus on the new health disorders like lack of sleep that is America’s top health problem. It is estimated that nearly half of all Americans have difficulty in sleeping. Eye disease is continuously increasing among the Americans over the last few years. Watching too much TV, music videos and suffering from sleeplessness have resulted in eye disease. Treatment to such chronic problems should be provided free and there must be more research encouraged in the advent of the new diseases with changing environmental conditions.
Research: The American Scientists also find more opportunities in Singapore to carry out the much debated stem cell research, I would like to encourage our scientists to avail all the facilities and funds to carry on with the R&D and maintaining the best standards in terms of Research as always. I would also like to encourage the alternative sources of biofuel, thus ending the rat race for the fossil fuels that already have marked USA as one of the most polluted nations, and thus look for non polluting renewable sources. The oceans are being largely polluted, oil spills can be treated by Bioleaching, and the other wastes can also be treated similarly by encouraging research on genetically modified microbes.
The use of corn should be reduced as that is leading to corn crisis being unavailable as a source of food. Being a super power, it is our responsibility to take care of other nations too, and promoting Genetically modified crops can solve many problems like lack of nutritious food in the underdeveloped nations and even these can be modified as per the requirements.

Islam: Muslims now number over three-million people in America, Muslims, because of the Koran, do not respect non-Muslims. Koran says that Muslims are superior to non-Muslims, this brings the differences.
Its high time for America to fight against terrorism that can be by making the ownership of guns a punishable offence and the anti-terrorism sqad should me indomitable with strict secrecy and it should have all the freedom to work the way they want to function and funds should be sufficient for them.
Iraq war: The forces from Iraq should be pulled back as a major portion of the resources even soldiers are wasted there, rather the concept of wars must be stopped and there should be powerful negotiations.
Old people: Make the elderly and the disabled get more funds and access to more help with their problems. Reduce prices of fuel so the working class aren’t the worst sufferers .

Media: There would be limitations for media too as they’re out of control. Advertising pays for them to print so they are never completely honest or fair. They’re paid not to be. They shouldn’t just be allowed to say anything they want because, as we’re learning the hard way, they often fabricate the news.
Juries. Juries are often not educated well enough to understand the decisions they make. They’re not professional court employees and we can’t expect them to rise to that level. Jury trials have glutted the court system and are slowing America from ever having a real sense of justice. Judges are experts and already make decisions on their own or with their peers. Jury trials are unnecessary and unreliable—they should be abolished.
The Two Political Party System: The two party-system and the winner-take-all results, increasingly fails to represent minority opinions, so most people, do not get involved in government. I would like to introduce a multiple party system
With the current economy in a devastated state, I would ensure enough job opportunities and security to every citizen who has the potential, thus to make every person employed and aiming at rendering America a stable economy and flourishing as the Super Power all throughout.
