May I humbly submit myself for this position? I have never sold arms to ANYONE, though I would certainly be willing to try.

My first act in office would be to drive an armored vehicle down Chestnut Street, and declare it open for traffic. This would begin my "Homeland Security begins at home" campaign.

Next in that campaign, I would set up a new Law Enforcement agency tasked with homeland security ONLY. Everyone who is a citizen of the US, a resident of PA, and a taxpayer in PA would be made an officer. There'd be a small budget for classes on terrorist identification, marksmanship, and similar items, but members would have to provide their own weapons. (no uniforms; that would defeat the purpose) Of course, being law enforcement officers, they'd be eligible to buy machine guns. And I'd encourage MG manufacturers to move to the state to ensure a local supply of such weapons :-)
