President Election

Hi, I am John Tyler; I was born on March 29, 1790 in Charles City County Virginia. I was the first Vice President to be elevated to the office of President by the death of William Henry Harrison, making me your 10th president. But before I accomplished this I attended the college of William and Mary where I studied law under my father. I also served in the House of Representatives as a Democratic-Republican from 1816 to 1821, after leaving the house I also served as Governor of Virginia. Then in 1840 I became part of the newly-organized Whig Part with an offer to be that party's vice-presidential nominee. I quickly found myself at odds with my former political supporters. I had been expected to adhere closely to Whig Party policies and to work closely with Whig leaders, particularly Henry Clay. But I, the life-long Democrat, shocked Congressional Whigs by vetoing virtually their entire agenda. In 1843, after I vetoed a tariff bill, the House of Representatives considered the first impeachment resolution against a president in American history. A committee headed by former president John Quincy Adams concluded that I had misused the veto, but the impeachment resolution did not pass. But now, why I should be president today, I believe everyone deserves a chance. So I would cut taxes on the lower class families to help bring back the middle class. Also I will attempt to get more of the society working again. I would also make a plan to help reduce global warming, I do not believe it is all our faults, but we have sped up the process. I will put in place, more “safe energy” for example, by using more wind, water, solar, and other safer methods. And about the war, I would organize a plan to get out, but I will not just leave, it is time Iraq stands on their own feet, and we will leave gradually. But we will help them while leaving. While doing this I am going to make sure that home land secretly, FBI, and all federal accounts will stay in better touch to help us know what is happing in the country and out. One topic that has been and always be discussed is abortion; I will allow however the right to this if pleased. How am I to say what you can do to your body, I am not for it, but I would fell wrong to say what you most do. Also gay marriage, I would allow this, and give them all the benefits, it is their right to happiness in anyway the please. Immigration, I am for people coming to make an honest living, and try and better themselves. But if they come into our country and end up in jail, I will have them removed. Also if they are illegal immigrants, not try to become legal, I will have them removed. I also believe we need to secure the boarder better; this will be a hard task, but needs to be done. Another is energy independence; we import 75 percent of oil from foreign countries making us dependent on other countries. So we need to generate more energy from resources within our country. A majority of the money we spend on foreign oil could possibly end up in terrorist hands. So with this plan, I believe I would be the best candidate for president, vote John Tyler.
