President of the United States

  It's strange how things happen? For awhile, I was seriously considering running for President of the United States, a fact that I had shared with one of my one way friends. But after more serious consideration, I figured that I was about a billion dollars short for reaching that goal! The story of a simple man with a limited formal education becoming President of the United States is the stuff of fairy tales, as there is no way ole Abe Lincoln could have become President in this day and age!
  But anyway, the strange part is, that I am running for the presidency of the Homeowners Association of the village that I live in. But here's the really strange part? The problems we face here are exactly the same as the problems the country faces, and the reason for these problems are strikingly similar! This once sleepy community where people go to retire, finds itself embroiled in law suits and political wrangling! It has gotten so bad that it pits neighbor against neighbor, and there can be no logical reason for it! It smells like corruption? Our current village president rules as if he were elected king, sound familiar? What reason can there be for bringing about such a state, where neighbor is pitted against neighbor? Who or what stands to gain in such a circumstance? 'A house divided against itself cannot stand' is more then a famous quote, because it is true right down to the foundation of this great nation!
  I will look to do for this community what the next president must do for the country, and there will be nothing more pressing to do, and that is to heal this land! The way we are now is not the way that it should be. The country, just like this little village deserves better then to be divided and worried all the time. In both situations, the people are to be told the truth, and no one's agenda is more important then that of the common good! So my plan here is a simple one? I look to return this village to exactly what it was before this current administration, I look to make this village a sleepy community, just as it was!
