Mr. Wells believes that the world needs the United States and that the United States needs the world. He is determined to push for World Peace and a tremendous world economy by making the economy of the United States the strongest it has ever been.
Eaglenomics
"Eaglenomics" takes the best from the Left Wing and the Right Wing. For many decades the people of the United States have elected a President that was leaning heavily to the Left Wing or Right Wing. This basically means that half of our population has not been represented by a President that they agree with on the issues.
Times have changed and "Eaglenomics" is the plan that all Americans can look to and find issues that can be identified with. This plan has structured solutions to restore Prosperity to our land by getting people from all walks of life to work together.
The Plan
1) Work diligently to unite all Americans to act as one nation regardless of race, religion, or sexual orientation
2) Create Prosperity and Full Employment for all
3) Equal Justice for all
4) Develop Sustainable Energy Independence
5) Reverse International Trade from Deficit to Surplus
6) Restore and Advance US Manufacturing in all sectors
7) Revamp the US tax code
8) Restore Social Security to financial health
9) Structured Educational support for all Americans (Free College Tuition, Elimination of the $1.4 trillion in student loan debt, and Universal Childcare)
10) Eradicate the revenue deficit and the national debt
11) Fix National Healthcare
12) Strengthen our National Security

Equal Justice with Team Rise Up
Thomas Jefferson wrote "We hold these truths to be self evident that all men are created equal." Over the entrance to the Supreme Court is the phrase "Equal Justice Under Law." This only holds true for those who are wealthy.
Most Americans can not afford an attorney when legal matters arise leaving them stranded from justice. Mr. Wells believes that we can equal the playing field by joining millions of Americans in group legal coverage. Hardly anyone can afford an attorney that charges over $300 per hour, but most can afford legal protection of less than one dollar a day. Contact Team Rise Up today to learn more about this issue.
