A Look at my Platform – Poverty
Over the next couple weeks, I will take issues from my platform and further explain my positions. Today, I will discuss my views on poverty."War on Poverty" can be solved by giving poor people $30/month and sending them to Africa once a month for food shopping. A family of four in Africa can eat for $.70/day. They would still have $8.30 for beer.
I am seriously considering doing my food shopping in Africa. It can cost over $100/week for food shopping for a family of one. This is $400/month. It would be cheaper to fly poor people to Africa once a month to do their food shopping. It would be even cheaper to fly one person to Africa to buy up all the food there and fly it back home and sell it at cost. The $8.30 left over wouldn’t necessarily have to go towards beer. It could go towards a pack of cigarettes (except in New York City, where cigarettes are almost $10.00 per pack.)
While many supermarkets would go out of business under my plan, my plan would allow Americans to eat and have more money left over for entertainment. It’s not like the CineMafia is going away.

About
Ahmnodt Heare is a fictional character running a real campaign. He is an Independent candidate for President of the United States. His views on solving America’s problems is different than the ideas being offered by any Republican or Democratic candidate.
In the upcoming days, he will give a daily account of his political activities, campaigns, and other behind the scene activities like no other candidate ever has.
The purpose of this blog is to showing the absurdity of Ahmnodt Heare’s platform and show that the two major parties are equally absurd (especially at the federal level.)
If you are fed up with the two-party duopoly, then feel free to write in “Ahmnodt Heare” for the office of your choosing.
On Election Day, tell your fellow Americans, “Ahmnodt Heare!”
Ahmnodt Heare for America. Ahmnodt Heare for You.
Ahmnodt Heare for President 
How are they going to get there and back?
Swim?
They would fly there on a government-subsidized flight. It would only be one flight a month.
I should add that even with the government subsidized flights (refreshments not included), that the flight and the $30 for shopping would still be cheaper for tax payers than having them shop for food in the United States.
