Implementing of a 3 President System
3 Presidents Reside over Executive Branch: The United States has outgrown the original constitutional construction of a singular president in charge of the executive branch; it's time to implement a three president system in which there is a more equal and responsive representation (ie. republican, democrat, independent) of "We the People". The issues facing this country and the world are much more complex than at any other time in history, more globally impacted and related, and citizen's opinions are more polarized than in recent history, therefore a concensus of executive powers is appropriate and provides a more democratic system for the citizens of this great country. Implementing a 3 President System: 1. Each party would have their primary selection, and a primary for the independent party would need to be created. 2. GOP would select 2 candidates in their primary. 3. DNC would select 2 candidates in their primary. 4. IND would select 2 candidates in their primary. 5. Each legal voter would now vote for 1 candidate from each party in the general election. 6. Those candidates from each party winning the general election would now become the 3 Presidents governing the executive branch of the U.S. government. 7. A 2/3 majority vote of the presidents would be required for any/all executive decisions. 8. Each president would have their own advisories, but again their recommendations would require a 2/3 majority vote before any of their recomendations were enacted or related in representing the United States on foreign or domestic policies. 9. All other executive statutes would remain intact i.e. term limits etc., except where executive decisions are involved. 10. In the event of a death of one of the presidents, an emergency selection of 2 candidates from the party losing respresentation would be formed and a general election would be held to select the new president. 11. That newly elected president would serve the remaining time in office of the former president's elected term. In the event that I left out any furhter explanation, please feel free to advise. … Read More

Dear Aaron,I suggest you read it slowly and carefully, and you will answer your own question. Keep in mind that no executive decision is made in the manner to which you question.

Thank you both for your comments. First, let me state that the idea posted by Julian stating the votes be counted in such a manner as to allow losing votes to go to the second, third and so on candidate is creative yet somewhat counter productive to the process (from my understanding of what you put forth). I ask you think about the intention of the 3 party presidency in a different light i.e. no one person can run away with a presidency given the concept of majority rule. As seen by the seating president, it is not a difficult task to take the country in a completely opposite direction of the will of almost 50% of the American population. Thus the concept of a more equal representation and consensus building prior to any execution of executive orders, vetoes, foreign policy (war, nation building etc.).To address Aaron Straus Garcia: I have absoulutely no idea if you understand the concept. Although a novel idea it is, I don't think you grasp the concept given your statements. The 3 president system acts in uniformity of policy based on majority rule. I appreciate your comments none the less.

I enjoy researching and tend to think of most topics outside of the box as such I tend to have very different ideas than most people that I meet. Although people may or may not agree with me, they do walk away with a novel perspective. My point of sharing ideas is not to convince or persuade, but simply to brain storm as one thought leads to another thought and so on. I am not interested in debating, however, I am very much interested in sharing ideas. If you comment on any of my topics, I ask that you comment with the thought of provoking thought not provoking an argument!

I sincerely think you are missing the concept, and as such your comment is terribly elementary. I don't require your rendition of how my government works as I am more than familiar. I ask you to think on a level that is worthy of reading and discussing this concept as that's the point of this web site. I don't require your approval of an idea to know it's novel and viable, but I'll respond because I sense that you are very young. Out of curiosity; just how quickly do you think the President makes a decision? Do you think it is made in a second (if you do, that's the problem with your thinking)? Do you realize that yes there is time taken for briefings, counsel, recommendations etc. that typically occurs before decisive action is ever taken. Also consider for a moment individual interpretative framework, illness (mental/physical) etc. Are you thinking yet; if you are then you should be saying, %u201CMy that is an awful lot of power%u201C. The power behind my idea centers around equal representation for the people of my country, and not only equal representation but moderated representation by a 2/3 majority. Remember this is a discussion about an %u201CIDEA%u201C, by not sharing ideas on the topic defeats the purpose. This is not an exercise of you attempting to inform on a regurgitated elementary level (which is obvious), no this is an exercise in "THINKING". SO THINK BEFORE YOU SPEAK!!!
