Dateline: July 19, 2020. Gallup poll shows a six-point lead for Democrats on a generic ballot.

Voters are waking up to the fact that the Republicans offer no ideas to solve our problems beyond cutting taxes for the rich. Unfortunately, the Democrats offer no ideas beyond spending money we don’t have.

I’m running on two main ideas:

1. We need to cut taxes on the middle class and on small business. That’s why I’m crusading to exempt the first 20 to 100 employees from the payroll tax. This would raise the take home pay for many middle class workers; it would increase hiring, and it would keep many struggling small businesses from shutting their doors.
   
   
2. If we eliminated everything in the federal budget other than transfer payments and defense spending, we’d still be sitting on a $600 billion a year deficit. Unless we want much higher taxes or insolvency, we MUST cut the sacred cows. Raising the full eligibility age to about 71 for Social Security and Medicare and ending "Team America World Police" would solve our impending insolvency.

The election of 2010 is the election for Republicans to try something different.
