Here's the solution to the Hillary/Barack stalemate.




The Walken Platform


These are the issues that need solutions now, and Christopher Walken is not afraid to address them. He wants his supporters and opponents to know that he is clear in his ideals and will fight to lead America to a better place.

Campaign Finance Reform:
"I believe that campaign finance is a very tough issue, with good points on both sides; but I feel, as a wealthy American, that I should have no more say than even the least fortunate American citizen. Free speech in politics is about the voices of all those who support you, not who supports you with the biggest voice."

Military Funding:
"I am a huge supporter of the military. I have always thought of them as our guardians, and when our guardians are making less than the poverty line, and children are suffering because their parents decided to join the military, well, I get very upset. I feel that instead of sending billions to the Pentagon's pet projects, it should go to the troops."

Stem Cell Research:
"I'd met Chris Reeve several times before he died, and after having met him it is tough to be against . I am for human knowledge and expansion of human life. If stem cells are one way to do that, I cannot support legislation to restrict this potentially life-saving research."

We appreciate the great response you've sent us, interested in more information about Christopher Walken's policies and platform. Please have patience as he puts his ideas into words, and as soon as they're available, we'll put them here. Thank you for your support.

1. There is no stalemate except in Hillary's mind.
We have our nominee.

2. It must suck to go through life with no sense of humor.
I'm sorry for you about that.

you haven't told me that lately b/c you locked yourself up in GDP and you rarely come out and play anymore. :(


This is for you---:hug: I know it's been rough around here lately but I just wanted to tell you that you are a fierce and passionate person, just like your candidate. Keep your head high. :hi:

31. Walken sucks. Every time he's on SNL all he can do is read the cue cards... badly
Then I started noticing that in most of his recent movies, he just reads his cue cards. He's a "bankable" star--just a character actor lately--so he keeps getting hired. He's creepy, but he doesn't even seem to try to be an "actor" per se, any more.

So maybe he'd be a perfect president.

41. That freaky movie!
I thought I hated it when I first saw it, but I talked about it for days and days... I made Howard watch it a year or so ago... he had the same reaction!

If a movie makes you talk about it days down the road, it had a hell of an impact on you!

I watch it once a year or so, just to get my freak on!

Personally, I'd LOVE to see Christopher Walken in the Oval Office. He has the qualities that we're looking for...AND a Best Supporting Oscar! You can't ask for more! :-)

Kicked and recommended.

usually a nice break, but unfortunately, it has been lost on some.

45. Oh yeah
A president who scares the pants off everybody, I'd go for that. 20 minutes of glowering silence for State of the Union addresses, Congress jumping under their seats every time he suddenly smiles, the whole country tiptoeing around, trying not to be noticed. It'd be quieter than the Eisenhower years. We could use the break from acting like overheated idiots.
