Which of these crises should President Obama address first?

[kentuck]

Poll question: Which of these crises should President Obama address first?

Never in our lifetimes has a leader been handed such a mess as the one that has been dumped into the lap of Barack Obama. Which should he address first?

[opihimoimoi]

1. War on Ignorance should be among the first...its cheap tooo....

[brazos121200]

2. And still the republican candidate for President got 58 million

votes. Go figure.

[kentuck]

3. Scary, isn't it?

:shrug:

[LiberalEsto]

4. Ask the new AG to indict and prosecute

Bush, Cheney, Rumsfeld and their henchmen.

[Just-plain-Kathy]

10. I'm with you. We can't let criminals take over our country and get away with it. n/t

[navarth]

5. can you add an 'all of the above'?

you know, multitasking and all....

[Idealism]

6. They aren't talking about sending out stimulus checks

From what I read, its mainly $150 billion on green technology job creation, and an un-named amount on infrastructure and state incentives.

[Cleita]

7. Other.

Stop bringing in the Milton Friedman Chicago School of Economics economists and Goldman Sachs failed officers to fix our tanking economy. Our economy is destroyed already and we need FDR type fixes.

[Sarah Ibarruri]

8. Save the manufacturing base and BRING BACK manufacturing nt

[leftstreet]

9. Do you mean "save" the manufacturing base, or "return" it?

We don't have a manufacturing based economy.

:shrug:

I'd take a stimulus check, though.
Bush's check didn't stimulate me enough.

:D

[OhioChick]

11. Save the manufacturing base and tech jobs, as well. n/t

[RedCappedBandit]

12. Step up and address all of these issues ASAP. nt

[MiniMe]

13. A President can multitask. The economy with a 2nd to Iraq

I don't necessarily agree with your choices. It seems like a push poll.

[kentuck]

14. Do you have a couple of others that you would like to mention?

I'm sure there are a lot of problems that will need addressing?

[Stargleamer]

15. Hello, people!!! Let's not forget global warming, please! n/t

[kentuck]

17. Wow!

I'm too overwhelmed to be depressed.

[realisticphish]

16. economy is the first priority, followed by a review of executive orders

as the latter can be done quickly.

And of course, he can multitask, but that would be my priority

[blue_onyx]

18. I voted for...

"Save the manufacturing base of our country and prevent a Depression." That starts with helping the US auto companies which I think will have to wait until Obama becomes president before they get a bailout.

[gordianot]

19. The depression is probably unstoppable at this point. We will need a recovery approach.
