| 1. Given the
great power of the Office of the President of the United States, a wise man who integrates
political savvy with substantive policy objectives and appoints the best people to serve
these objectives should be able to accomplish a meaningful measure in his four year term. |
Agree

|
| 2. I would be
remembered as a successful president if after four years I had effectively implemented:
Check all appropriate
policy areas. |
National policy goals
Regional policy goals
State-specific solutions
Solutions for large cities
Solutions for rural areas
Supporting other
nations' peace & free economic goals |
|
3. I would accomplish these goals by identifying specific problems as:
Check all appropriate policy areas. |
National
Regional
State-wide by specific states
Large city oriented
Rurally oriented
International |
|
| 4. I would
then appoint knowledgeable, competent, honest, experienced people to task teams and assign
them specific problems that had been identified. For example, I would build task
teams for agriculture, manufacturing, welfare, and more. |
Agree
Disagree |
|
| 5. I would
assign people with relevant skills to specific objectives. For example, I would
assign agricultural experts to each state where agricultural issues are important,
industrial engineers to each region where manufacturing is critical, welfare experts to
each city where welfare issues are relevant, and more. |
Agree
Disagree |
|
6. I would
mandate my appointed experts to act decisively:
1.) Dispatch them to their relevant regions, states, cities;
2.) Identify specific problems;
3.) Work with knowledgeable local people to develop resolution plans;
4.) Report to me within a reasonable time with plans. |
Agree
Disagree
Wow, that sounds simple
enough to work |
|
| 7. As task
teams report findings and present resolution plans to me I would mandate those same task
teams return to their areas to implement plans with assistance from local leaders and
workers. |
Agree
Disagree |
|
| 8. I would
require frequent progress reports be reviewed by my immediate staff to ensure steady
progress was being made. |
Agree
Disagree |

these task teams would provide meaningful progress for most people. |
Agree

|
| 10. I believe
many people could understand the progress we made. |
Agree

|
| 11. If,
after years of work I had success in several policy areas, I would not want to lose
re-election over issues as divisive as abortion & stem cell research! |
Agree
Disagree
Obviously - It does not make sense to win battles, yet lose my ability to
continue making progress! |
|
| 12. If,
after years of work I had success in several policy areas, I think I could get re-elected
on my accomplishments. |
Agree
Disagree
Obviously |

opponent on my accomplishments versus his promises. |
