The Hefty to-do list...

1. Deepest housing recession in a generation, growing fears of bank failures, a sinking dollar, $4 gasoline and an economy bleeding jobs, confronting wars in Iraq, and Afghanistan.


2. In 2000, the last time no incumbent was running, consumer confidence was at record levels and the economy had created 1.3 million jobs in the year’s first six months. This is important, because people need jobs.


Bush’s budgets have add 1.7 trillion to the national dept. this is important because we should not be that far in dept.


Today, 82 percent of Americans say the economy is doing badly. The people should be happy with economy.


In August 2000, 89 percent of Americans said the economy was doing well, according to a Los Angeles Time poll. This shows how much or economy has gone down if you look at the percentage above.


Voters consider education is the most important issue after the economy, Iraq war, health care, terrorism, and illegal immigration. This shows was the nation thinks is important.


4.I believe that Obama will be able to meet the challenges in the future. For example, the war in Iraq, Obama want to with drawl troops by the end of 2009. We need this for we are sending troops into a place where we shouldn’t have gone in the first place. We are wasting money on the war we shouldn’t have started. Another reason is because; on global warming he wants to have a ten year plan to produce “climate friendly” energy supplies. Which we need, for if global warming is that big of a problem, we need to fix it sooner than later. Also, in immigration, he offers the right to get legal status, but wants to secure the boarder too. This is important, because having immigration legally is not a bad thing. But we need to secure the boarder.
