    I read the health reform, that was enough for me...Personally, I can't justify illegal aliens coming to this country and receive healthcare when I practically have to give over my firstborn just to renew my driver's license! Besides, people do not seem to realize that it will catapult us into socialism!!! I am voting for Romney because his ideas most closely match mine, though I'm not necessarily keen on his being a mormon. Still, I do not want to elect a man based upon his personal beliefs in this situation and that would go for either candidate here. I don't vote based upon race, religion, or even political parties. I look at the platforms and decide. May God have mercy on us in a few days....

    Well in my opinion the number one issue to tackle is to stop the war in Irak as soon as possible. The war alone is a huge blow to the american economy

    Total money spent on the war comes to about $255 million per day, or a little less than $1.8 billion a week.

    1) Eliminating the war and that HUGE $4 Trillion Debt.

    2) Ecomony reform

    3) NAFTA Reform

    4) SS Reform

    5) Healthcare Reform

    6) A One-way ticket for hatemongers and bigots to leave America (just never return, not ever)

    7) Jobs Reformation

    8) Eliminating Most Earmarks and Non-frugal Spending Habits of Crooks in Our Government

    9) Banning fraud and racism in every state

    10) Immigration Reform and Border Control

    Those are the first 10 that come to mind. Those 10 really bother me a great deal.

    I think Obama will do quite well, but he's going to have to undo a great deal of damage done by the "ole boy" corrupt system. I hope he can reform Faux News too and stop them from all the bad press and lies. They are not true and honest journalism but lies and slander and they hardly have any Black permanent anchors on their air. It's so obviously disgusting and racist. They too can leave the country.

    Well, you asked and I answered. I hope I have not bored you too much.

    President Obama 2008!

    The spending habits of our government and the resultant devaluation of the dollar. We would not be in the economic position we find ourselves if it weren't for all the spending. That is the only way we can fix the economy, stop devaluing the dollar with artificial interest rates and an endless supply of dollars.

    Cut pork spending, earmarks and monies appropriated for stupid ideas.

    Reinstate Bush's tax cuts

    Do not bail out industries that hurt themselves by their own greed. Sub Prime lenders.

    Close our Borders

    Use some freakin common sense for you make decisions!!
