Question

What are the 5 biggest tasks facing the incoming president?

Answer 1

1) Fuel prices

2) The economy

3) Terrorism

4) Illegal immigration

5) Social Security

Answer 2

Gas Prices

War

The Economy

More War

and Terrorism

All of which neither Obama or McCain will be able to fix.  

Answer 3

1)  Find ways to further erode America's sovereignty.

2)  Get rid of the Constitution.

I guess those two tasks ought to cover it.

Answer 4

It's not the economy.  I expect the economy to turn around by Jan 2009.

I think it's wrapping up Iraq, one way or another.  Then implementing a coherent long term energy policy to secure our energy independence.  Then implementing some sort of health care reform.  Entitlement reform including SS & Medicare are important, but I doubt either of them will do anything substantial.

Answer 5

imho they are:

1.  getting Congress to face fiscal reality and cease spending on everything that could possibly buy a vote

2.  build a working energy policy

3.  solve the long term entitlements problem

4.  permanently increase productivity growth so that our children and grandchildren have a realistic chance of having life better than we have our lives.

5.  defending the Constitution.  

Answer 6

the war in iraq, the war in Afghanistan, illegal immigration, fuel to drive our economy and getting rid of more liberal judges.
