There is a difference between having a strong federal government and a weak one.
The federal dept of transportation is pretty small, but they give the money and standards to each state (for interstate highways). Each state as road crews and has the right equipment. What would happen if they made it all a federal government operation?

Clinton/Gore had the right idea with their National Partnership for Reinventing Government . They eliminated 250+ outdated government programs, slashed more than 160,000 pages of regulations, cut more than 640,000 pages of internal rules, and (with a Repub Congress) balanced the federal budget for the first time in 30 years.

I will only vote fo a candidate that has a sound policy for balancing the budget. I don't care which party they belong to.
