On Day One, the next president should call for summit meeting in Washington for all great powers - including allies, Security Council permanent members like China and Russia, and emerging powers like India. Rather than enlarge the out-of-date UN Security Council, the next administration should convene this "global great power concert" with informal meetings of heads of state on a regular basis.
I agree that the UN Security Council permanent membership is out of date, but that's too many countries (8) and doesn't reflect the real situation. The real great powers are Russia, China, and the US. Everything else is just giving the US extra seats at the table.
