Answer:

As one of the thousands (millions?) of Americans without health insurance, I'm selfishly hoping he jumps right to affordable health insurance.

Answer:

Well, as most have already stated, the economy should be a top priority. I think one thing that could be worked on at the same time as the economy, hand in hand with it, would be working on clean energy sources. Then the Iraq war, and also the one in Afghanistan, which most people seem to forget about.

Answer:

I hope Obama focuses on the economy and getting us out of Iraq. The cost of war is not helping our economy. I also like the idea of a flat income tax rate.

Answer:

The economy first, then the home mortgage crisis, then medical coverage.

I would like to see a straight 20% - 25% across the board income tax for everyone and all businesses -no exceptions!!

Answer:

I think we need a focus on the economy first ... job creation and helping people keep their homes.

Answer:

There's so much to do it's almost impossible to know where to start, but I'd say the economy is probably top priority. It affects almost everything else in our country.
