I have no training in journalism and I have been critical of the press for not asking the President tougher questions. These are some of the things I would ask if I were given an opportunity to interview the President. Let me know what you think and please add your own.

1- Mr. President you have repeatedly stated that you inherited a terrible economy. Other Presidents have inherited similar economies---Warren Harding(1920), Franklin Roosevelt(1932) and Ronald Reagan(1980). I am wondering why you chose to govern like the one who failed?

2- Can you give us an example of one free market reform you initiated since becoming President?

3- If 9 trillion dollars in debt was "Un-American" when you were Senator then how do you justify personally increasing the debt by more than 9 trillion dollars?

4- Who is your favorite Founding Father and why?

5- You have expressed recently that Christians have done some terrible things throughout history in the name of Christ. The current problem we have is radical Islam. Can you explain which Muslim groups are a threat to the US and which ones are not a threat?

6- The IRS has clearly been targeting individuals and groups that don't follow a certain ideology. How do we stop and then prevent the IRS from being used as a political weapon?

7- If Iran develops a nuclear weapon do you think they would use it without provocation?

    I would not waste my breath asking him questions!
    In case you have not been paying attention for the past 6+ years, there is a very real chance his answers will be nothing but lies or to put it in the liberal medias terms "Misstatements".

    1. Who is your favorite philosopher and why?

    2. If Vladimir Putin announced tomorrow that Russia no longer recognized the existence of Ukraine as an independent country and then annexed it, what would you do?

    3. You state that ISIS has "hijacked" the Muslim religion. What is the difference between what ISIS practices and Islam?

    Is "Leading From Behind" really spin for "Following"?

    Thank you. It is too bad they won't even be asked. If he dances around and doesn't really answer that says something about him. I hope the press steps up soon and does their job.

    1, Mr. President, why are your college records sealed? Why won't you allow them to be unsealed?

    2. Mr. President, why did you not send a representative of your administration to Margaret Thatchers funeral, yet you went in person to Nelson Mandela and to King Abullahs?

    You forgot the most important question: Do you wear boxers or briefs Mr. President.

    It sure would be nice if someone would ask your questions but his answers would be too revealing.

    4 is my favorite.. It would be the hardest for him to give an evading answer.

    Sir, since it is now certain that Iran will have the bomb within 10-12 years what steps are you going to take to protect America and it's allies from a Nuclear Terrorist State?

    He makes some pretty dumb statements off the cuff. I remember the "Joe the Plumber" remark. I think if he were challenged more we would hear some interesting admissions.
