If I were President, I would: Tighten the penalty for drunk driving, take a good long look at the wars we have and see why people think they're necessary (and hopefully pull out and bring troops back home where they belong), and focus more on what people in THIS country need, not what people in other countries need. Let's deal with OUR poor first, shall we?

75. If I had three wishes, they would be: To win the lottery so I could go back to school and get an undergrad degree in biology and then go to med school so that I could become an emergency room / trauma doctor. To win the lottery so that Rob could also go back to school and become whatever he wants (I think he said he would be interested in being a pharmacist). Make sure Gabriel has the best of everything so that he can be anything he wants to when he grows up.
