Rudy Giuliani has just released what he calls his ‘Twelve Commitments to the American People’ [link updated]:

  1. I will keep America on offense in the Terrorists’ War on Us.
  2. I will end illegal immigration, secure our borders, and identify every non-citizen in our nation.
  3. I will restore fiscal discipline and cut wasteful Washington spending.
  4. I will cut taxes and reform the tax code.
  5. I will impose accountability on Washington.
  6. I will lead America towards energy independence.
  7. I will give Americans more control over, and access to, healthcare with affordable and portable free-market solutions.
  8. I will increase adoptions, decrease abortions, and protect the quality of life for our children.
  9. I will reform the legal system and appoint strict constructionist judges.
  10. I will ensure that every community in America is prepared for terrorist attacks and natural disasters.
  11. will provide access to a quality education to every child in America by giving real school choice to parents.
  12. I will expand America’s involvement in the global economy and strengthen our reputation around the world.

It’s a pity that the current Administration as well as both parties in Congress have lost sight of many, if not most, of these priorities. ..bruce..
