Here’s an interesting thought excercise I came up with just now. Imagine:

Via nonimportant reasons, you, personally, are now president of America, and have the clout to choose up to six policies to enforce during your term. There are restrictions – you must either compromise on your stance for a given doctrine/law (this being to blend your stance with one you don’t agree with), or instead hold firm on your position, but sacrifice one of your remaining options (i.e. if you held firm on the first of five choices, you now have three remaining instead of four). You must have at least two choices left to hold fast.

What does your presidency look like?
