10. When we raise the minimum wage, we will pay you -- and your employees -- that new wage, too.

They might just do that, at least if you count my income after taxes. <g>

3. We will not spend your grandchildren's money on our personal whims or to enrich our friends.

How many seconds will that one last?

we promise that you, too, will be able to see a doctor, regardless of your ability to pay.

Assuming you have the ability to wait long enough once medicine is socialized.

9. We will not take away your hunting guns. If you need an automatic weapon or a handgun then you really aren't much of a hunter and you should, perhaps, pick up another sport...

So they will take away handguns?

As for automatic weapons that's a red herring. The so called "assault weapons ban" under Clinton did nothing about automatic weapons. It baned semi-auto weapons because of appearance, or non-important factors like bayonet lugs or flash suppressors. Automatic weapons have long been heavily controlled. Neither the "assault weapons ban" or its repeal affected them.

12. We will not tolerate politicians who are corrupt and who are bought and paid for by the rich.

They've already tolerated politicians who are corrupt. I don't expect that to change.
