My concerns for the upcoming '08 elections are (in no particular order):
- safety of our nation
- economic health of families and our country
- energy; less dependence on foreign nations
- energy; we need to control rising prices
- health; basic health services should be available to all fairly easily
- community/global service; our country needs to emphasize giving to others
- political parties; getting rid of politicians who just toe the party line
- political parties; putting more good thinkers in office regardless of their party label
- reduce debt to other nations
- gun control; make it extremely difficult for law-breakers to get weapons
- gun control; decrease number of guns in our country
- Protecting myself against my government (motive for 2nd Ammendment) is not a big concern of mine these days
- education; give families the choice to leave bad public schools and use their tax money for other schooling alternatives
- pornography; this is not free speech, it's trash, it destroys people, and we should do everything we can to eliminate it
- gambling; get rid of it too because it destroys people
- drugs; fight the source and help the addicts
- immigration; make it hard for people to enter illegally and easy for them to obtain citizenship legally
That's all for now.
