Want?
I want Obama to kick the republican party far, far away from any power in America.

1. I want them to focus on taking Freepers' guns away and making them gay marry.
I believe that would be domestic.

2. Can't have one without the other..
I think the needs of the empire need to be more balanced with the needs of the nation.

3. Other: global issues
climate change eclipses all other issues. If we don't find ways of slowing it down we'll face famine, wars and natural disasters unlike anything we can imagine at this moment-and within most of our lifetimes. This also goes hand in hand with peak oil. If we can't grow enough food to survive-hell, if we don't even have enough OXYGEN to breathe-than how important will any other issue be?

4. Actually I believe the new guys can
multitask... walk and chew gum at the same time.

7. IF they would stop pouring all that money into the desert sand, there would be enough to
accomplish a lot domestically.

As long as the wars go on (another year and a half?!?), the choices for domestic spending will be fatally curtailed.

Now, that is not to say that they will push good domestic policies. But with an empty treasury, even if they try, there will be little "capital" to expend.

8. Way Too Simple Minded And Broad Brush Of A Question.
I want them focused on the most pressing issues of the moment. Such issues are individualized as per category and can easily fall between either.

10. Much of what we do on the foreign level depends on the soundness
of our own nation.
