Kidding aside, my two issues would probably be the last two (though I recognize that all of these are important, of course):

Politics/Government/Corruption/Campaign finance reform
and
War in Iraq/Peace/Foreign policy

3. I Checked other and said all of the above, you can't narrow it to just 2
What a stupid ass poll.

The other question on there was about the American Dream being Material or Spiritual, Huh?

4. Terrorism and Spending
Of course it is hard to pick just two. But that's what the OP asked for. So to say you can't pick just two means you're an asshat.

This is, of course, on a national level. On a state or local leve, I would pick education. But that's a national issue to me really.

6. Why isn't uneeded war on the list ! ? Is that terroism/security ?
Given that list, I would say jobs/economy and health care/insurance/prescription drugs and welfare/child care/homeless/housing/poverty.

I know thats three but they are all important and have been virtually ignored by the bUsh mis-administrations.

9. I say the 2 top issues facing this country are (1) a renegade administration that thumbs its nose
at the laws of this country and the rights of its citizens, and (2) the spineless, gutless chicken shits in the Democratic leadership that allow it.
