We would need to double the size of the Secret Service just to handle security for his family.:):):):):):):):):):):):):)
Yes Sir, you are correct!
Shoot Nate brings his own cabinet, chief of staff, press secretary, no need to hire those people.
The new "National Pastime" wouldn't be baseball......
I've never actually met Nate or his wonderful family. But I have a lot of friends that are either from large families or have oodles of kids. I have heard it called "a maddening joy".
My bet would be if Nate were President it would be worthy of a Disney movie. The presidential motorcade would be a modified school bus. Room on the south lawn would have to be made for "everything that doesn't run right now". And the SS would probably be required to put GPS ankle monitors on all the kids just to keep track of them. Any kid from Arkansas should be able to give "the slip" to agents not versed in tree climbing or fence hopping.
And then there's the animals....
Secretary of Technology: Javad Ashjaee.

No it would be a rave about "Javad". 😉
As his close buddy, maybe I could be named the First Cow. Either that or Secretary of Agriculture.
Perhaps he could name TDD as Secretary of Defense and put Hub Northing in charge of prison reform.
And Kent to be responsible for maintaining the PLSS (would that be the BLM?).

Technically yes, all under the Department of Interior. With Kent as Secretary of Interior he could probably single handedly get rid of the rectangular system and implement a style more like his beloved West Texas.
Somewhere out west our predecessors could erect a scattered pile of stones as a monument to his work. Although it would be National Park, the monument would be a half mile from the nearest road and one would have to cross private property to get there. All the pamphlets would list the distance from the road in varas. Nobody would actually really be able to tell if they were at the site or not.
Since there would be so much confusion over its location a fence corner nearby would probably be accepted as the monument....
If Nate were President.......there would be a Javad LS in every home....;)

The bearing to the monument would be pseudo true bearing using a declination which is several degrees off the real declination; Kent would expect visitors to have to figure out the real geodetic bearing in order to find the monument. There would be forms in a weather proof cabinet at the parking spot that visitors would have to fill out to figure out his pseudo declination, maybe along with a hurt feelings form for those who aren't well versed in mathematics.
Instead of a chicken in every pot there would be a bun in every oven!
If Nate were President, he'd hand pick about 10 guys, as advisors, and he'd have these 10 hand pick 10 each, then he'd vet them, and carefully surround himself with people that pray, and consider, that without God's Blessing, we are toiling in vain.
Then, he'd make contact with various church leaders, all over the country, and have them pray for the administration, so that all decisions had heaven's blessing.
And, He'd be concerned, because earthly positions of power, tend to corrupt.
There's all too much evidence to this.
So, Nate will probably live, and die a surveyor, and a guy that loves God, and Country, and fellow man.
Now, on that Javad part.... there is a story there. We won't go deep, but just smack a few highlights.
The story is that better equipment, always results in better work, and better work, results in better quality in all directions.
The love of quality is driving the liking of the gear.
Show me other gear, that is SUBSTANTIALLY better, or speeds things up, and I'll try to get it.
And, If I were president, I'd move the presidential residence to a mobile home, and cut the salaries of all congress, until the economy was fixed.
And, Legislate fishing, as the national past time!
And, no, I don't want to be president. But, I do want to fish more.

Episcopalians pray for their clergy, bishop, and national leadership every Sunday. We've been used to praying for "Barack, our president and Joe, our vice president" but soon that will change to Don and Mike (weren't they a comedy team at one point?)

Maybe he could appoint Francis H to work with Kent to resurvey all of PLSSia into a better system....
