Presidential prioritiers

The first job of the President is to protect the Constitution and the rule of law, which have been ignored and abused. Those who violate their oath of office or betray the intended purposes of the agencies they lead should be tried and punished in courts of law.

The second priority is to pursue negotiations to reduce the nuclear weapons on alert and dismantle the stockpile, with a declaration of no first use and  repair of Bush's nuclear treaty damage.

The third priority is to reign in corporate excess and to develop a national law that requires corporations to include on their boards
representatives of their labor, communities and consumers. In this way strikes can be avoided as well as the promotion of dangerous or useless goods and end the indifference to community interests.
Stockholders would still be in the majority on these boards.
