1) National security is the primary issue. Given the fact that 9/11/01 stopped wall street, caused a mad dash to the ATM's and banks to secure individual's money and caused that money to be kept at home, and paniced the public from doing business in fear of the next attack, the health of the economy and other issues depends on safety of the people.

2) Healthcare costs must be addressed. There needs to be a detailed account of what is being spent and where the money goes. Liability must also be addressed. Liability also causes a hospital to preform every test (x-rays, cat scans, ultrasounds, blood lab, ect) to rule out even the remotest posibility of a certain diagnosis(added bills). After all the available test are done, you may be sent to another facility if a certain test is not available at your first hospital. All of those steps are to cover medical professionals from being sued for the "one in a billion chance" diagnosis, and the people who pay for it is you.

3)Education depends greatly on the truth (telling a kid that 2+2=4 and not "5 is close enough") and how school admin is managing its funding. Too much money is being spent on pretty school buildings, bus systems to keep up with "the Jones", and other non educational componets of a school. Teaching a child about reality will prevent these kids from being nieve later on in life.

4)Social Security must be addressed in a plain and straight forward maner. When it was started this program was supported by the paychecks of the workers. For every SS recipient there was 10 workers to pay the check. The increase of SS recipients and the lack of workers over the past 12 years has made the ratio 6:1.

5)The Economy is driven by the public and is hindered by the goverment. The goverment can easily scare the people into saving their money and cut their spending of luxuries. Goverment can not cause people to go flocking to enployment and go flocking to the stores to spend money. In the Economic Sea, Goverment can clear the water by yell shark but can't get the poeple to jump into the water.
