Honestly, lets talk about the issues.. What is good for this country right now? Have alot at stake!?

We need to create jobs. Tax heavily companies that take factories to other countries. Cut out pork barrel spending. Congress needs to quit giving themselves raises for NOTHING.

We can create jobs by building gas saving cars, alternative energy sources, such as solar and wind.

Its going to take a long long time to dig out of this hole. It can't happen overnight.

We need to clean house in congress. Get rid of the Ted Kennedys, the people that have been there forever. Nothing will change as long as the likes of him is there. We need a more bipartisan congress to work with the president and future presidents and cut this political crap out of congress.

The problem is, many people need relief now. Forclosures, unemployment, food prices and gas prices. Releasing some oil reserves would help temporairly. Building more refineries would help too.

There is so much we can do to make it better. Getting it through Congress is like pulling teeth.

Im sorry some children will go without healthcare, but you have to admit that it is some the parents fault for having kids they can't take care of. Not the presidents. And Im pretty sure that the president can't control the gas prices. Seriously, yall act like he is a God and he can control everything, that is the reason why our government is set up the way it is. And people are still talking about it because that is what the average american wants to hear. Americans aren't smart enough to understand what is really going on so they have to make it something they understand. Drama. Umm I really don't think race is the ussue at all. China will be a superpower, they have been rising for ages. Do you think that them getting "little children healthcare" is going to help our country. NO. It is going to make it to where doctors and such can raise prices because half of the people the government is paying for it. Therefor, us middle class people have to pay the outrageous amounts. They should get their own healthcare. Sorry I am biased. This doesn't apply to all situations. I know this.

A study by the National Taxpayers Union=new policies by=

obama up by 287 billion.

clinton up by 226 billion.

mccain up by 7 billion (plus the cost of wars)

Ron Paul would CUT federal spending 150 billion. He is also against any bill contrary to or prohibited by the United States Constitution.

WANT CHANGE? How about changing back to the Constitution-that piece of paper that made this country the greatest in the world !!!!!

Vote Dr. Ron Paul for President

I agree. After the Democratic nominee is selected, the campaign will be between Obama or Clinton and McCain. At that time, both views of the nation's future should be examined, the candidates integrity assessed and a decision made. That's the time for issues. It's too early now - we have until November.

You're right. Congress and the white house don't worry about things like this, though. You don't understand how it works. Congress gets lobbied and bribed, and they serve those that pay the most. The kind of policies that would help are anathema to the business lobby. Ron Paul's approach is the closest to what I think would be the most likely solution, but I know it can't be done. Both parties have been corporatized and compromised, so you can't count on either. Nadar? Nope. Green Party? Are you kidding? Sorry, but I'm afraid that is the way it is.

I agree with 100%...None of these canidates are discussing the issues ,all this damn bickering

Forgot who said it in one of the past elections..."Its the economy Stupid",,now it should be "ITS THE ISSUES"

Im a democrat...but Im more inclined to go with Mccain,AFTER all this time I have really no idea where Clinton and Obama stand.

YUP that is the America of today and probably the future...if there is a future there anymore....That's one reason i got the HELL out of that country...Who knows maybe other countries well wise up and get fed up with American intervention in there countries and team up to take down the US.

Last time I checked, the same problems existed in 2006 and the Frikken Democrats SWORE on their lives they would fix them.

That was two years ago, and I note you are bringing up the same issues.

So, tell me should the Democrats be kicked the #$# out of office for incompetence?

I love how idiots complain how the the Dem congress isn't getting things done.

Hmmmm. Kinda forgot that 49% is Republican and keeps dragging things down. Not to mention Bush and his goofy veto pen.

Once we get Obama in office things will go smoothly. And the 49% Republicans can stop being the spoilers.

ABOUT THE ISSUES: Those aren't important! FLAG PINS ARE WHAT'S ON AMERICA'S MIND!

Flag pins are most important---flag pins made in Taiwan. VERY IMPORTANT!----Not!

Puller 58 hit it right on the button which is why i am going to vote for obama.

if you got lobbiest buying all the new laws how can you change the way the system works?

you cant and obama intends to change that
