I'll help you Rick.
Were I to be elected (I'm not running) I'd end by Executive Order:
● Education (The States should be the ones with this responsibility)
● Homeland Security (folded back into the CIA and FBI where it belongs)
● Housing and Urban Development (bye-bye Fannie/Freddie!)
And that's what I'd call "a good start."
Oh, and it's better - those are departments. Agencies are under departments. (e.g. Fannie is an agency, HUD is a department.) So Perry not only hosed up the answer he doesn't understand the hierarchy of the Executive branch either!
Since Rick couldn't remember what to kill or how the very branch of government he wants to head is organized it's rather obvious that he destroyed his own Executive Office of The President

I love the way Perry kept looking to Ron Paul for help. RP fed Perry a correct answer; the EPA is an independent AGENCY that he would eliminate along with 5 DEPARTMENTS (Commerce, Education, Energy, Interior and Housing & Urban Development. ) Perry backpedaled that answer, but after the debate said that the third 'agency' he would eliminate is the DoE.
Put a fork in him; he's done.
