What are the big issues?

  • The economy, stupid. ^_^ Stimulus package, rescue homebuyers, re-regulate Wall Street, restore competition and transparency to markets, undo Bush tax cuts, let workers and middle class have a share of economic growth,...
  • Trade. Free for corporations but not for people doesn't count.
  • Environment. Renewable energy (to combat Global Warming, and for security), reregulate pollution,...
  • Immigration. A path to citizenship. Help countries so that their citizens will not have to flee from war, oppression, or dire poverty.
  • Afghanistan, Pakistan, Al Qaeda, Taleban
  • "Rogue states", failed states, civil wars: Iran, North Korea, Burma, Cuba, Sudan, Congo, Somalia,...
  • Foreign aid. Obama proposed doubling US foreign aid, including a $2 billion annual Global Education Fund.
  • Supreme Court. Obama could have the opportunity to appoint three Justices.
  • Lower courts. Obama will have to appoint about 50 judges immediately.
  • The First Dog, promised to the Obama children as a reward for their good behavior during the campaign. It must be hypo-allergenic. They would have preferred to get a shelter dog, but Obama says, "most of them are mutts like me."
