Despite the excitement and interest of the Presidential campaign, what is the next step? We can't afford to be shortsighted and focus so much on getting a particular candidate in office, that we don't have a plan for him/her to be accountable once they are there. What issues are most important: foreign affairs, the economy, health, etc? This will be a particularly divisive campaign, and it is just getting started. How will our nation's next leader rebuild from a difficult election process, and start getting cooperation to move forward?

Well that's the presidents job... to come up w/ the correct plan of action....and lead the country in the "right" direction... I know that Obama has outlined a Cause and Effect and Action Plan for many of the Nation's top issues... So...hold them accountable for what they professes they will do..

That is exactly what he needs to focus on. I feel that he would be great for improving our relations with the rest of the world. For one thing, he is African American and he looks like the people in other parts of the world. I don't know how well or receptive other countries will be to, McCain, another white male. America needs Obama, so he can go in and fix all this stuff with foreign countries.

I think foreign affairs should be the first priority of Obama. We have to minimize external threats to the United States. After he establishes a better relationship with other foreign countries, he should focus on the economy. As a country, we are becoming to service oriented and focused on the bottom line, which is profit. I think we need to find a balance between services and products. Obama needs to focus on decreasing the national unemployment rate, and reward companies that employ U.S. workers.
