A few thoughts (largely agree with Blackraisin here):
-Increase per-child tax credit substantially
-Eliminate marriage penalty in tax code
-Probably the most controversial one:  substantial additional tax credit for married couples with children under age 7 with one spouse staying at home and another potential one for parents who choose to homeschool their kids
-Strong increase in earned income tax credit for lower earners (staggered appropriately to prevent "negative income" at point when salary increase is canceled out with lower benefits) but this increase only applies to married couples
-Make divorce much harder (not an economic platform, but would obviously have significant economic effects)
