He would get my vote. Cant argue with any points in his plan.

I agree on all points.  Shame it will never happen.

Ditto to the above zero on ideology 100% on practicality not so sure on the retirement age to 70 if I was 63 I think I would be voting against it.

The simple fact that he realizes that there is a difference between coal miners and office workers speaks volumes. I havent seen common sense like that out of Washington in a long time.

Not that it matters much relating to his plan, but does anyone know his funds long term returns?

[dcollon]

The last I saw was that he has compounded capital at roughly 16% since starting his fund in 1991.  I don't have the breakdown of yearly results though.

Great common sense  ideas that should be implemented!  I would add for pt.10:  Change presidential term to 6 yrs. so a president could implement his/her ideas w/o wasting 25% of time in office on reelection.

4 years is good because the only things folks want over a long period of time will get done.  This is the way the system is designed.
