What is the make or break issue that will turn you on or off?
I want to see answers from the gut!
Please no diatribes, make it short and to the point.
Taxes?
War on terror?
Immigration/boarder control?
Crime?
Supreme Court nominations?
Iraq?

Curbing illegal immigration and deporting the ones that are already here, and punishing employers who hire them.

I can't name just one, but I will try to name them in order of importance. I tried to name them in order of importance, but they are all equally important.
1. getting rid of the income tax for US citizens. But, the truth is that we are already not required to pay that tax. We have just been lied to all these decades. If you watch America:Freedom to Fascism, and then watch all 6 of the following links, you will understand what I am talking about!
(I can't get the link to work...so you can just google it--and you can find the other five videos on the site)
Just The Facts - Part 1
And, the Federal Reserve also needs to be nothing but a bad memory!!!!
2. The ending of the war in Iraq, and no war in Iran either
3. The abolishment of the Patriot Act and Homeland Security
4. Revoke the Real ID Act
5. Not for profit, universal healthcare for all.
6. Revoke the right to work (for less) laws in all states, and strengthen the unions again. People before profits!
7. An end to NAFTA and CAFTA, and the NAU. Reward corporations for keeping manufacturing jobs in this country, and penalize them for outsourcing.
8. Clean and honest elections so that we the people can elect candidates that stand for the constitution and for the people, and for the environment, instead of standing for the corporate elite with their NWO agenda.
9. Cleaning up the environment, and strengthening the infrastructure of this country.
10. This is for all the other things I could also name, like a quality education for everyone. I think even a college or tradeschool education should be free for everyone with the capabilities, and the inclination to go. This would benefit the country as a whole, and lessen the need for social services. I also feel that assessment of each persons strengths and weaknesses, and likes and dislikes, etc., throough comprehensive appitude, psychological, and personality testing, should be given...to ensure that each person is in the best job.
11. I have to add, a new, comprehenisve, unbiased investigation into 911, and impeaching Bush, and Cheney, and Rice, and any others that are involve with the same crimes committed by these evil men. *sm*

Corruption!!
There are 25,000 registered lobbyists within DC...thats roughly 25 lobbyists for every elected official...sick!
And in all the categories listed on your post have all been heavily lobbyied.
We clean this mess up, then the American Voter can clearly be heard. Otherwise we have to shout over mountains of money.
As a pre-emptive strike to the uninformed...there is no such thing as a good lobbyist. Even the Education lobby is corrupt as no one is advocating against education, so why do these people exist. Simply to allow access into the Education system for big business (vending machines is every school) and to influence spending on pet research projects (do we really need to spend $2 million dollars to see how thick and slow Heinz Ketchup is?!)
Same thing with the Anti-Cancer lobby. No one is for cancer!
They are there just to channel government spending to specific companies.
So in short...kill the special interest @$$holes and lobbyists and the power will return to the people...where it rightfully belongs.
p.s. shut up about this being a party issue...greed knows no party affiliation.

i for my area do no longer think of this is the events that are detached. i've got faith we've Liberals and we've Conservatives and that they have got tentacles to the two events besides with the aid of fact the Libertarians. It in order that occurs that those 2 communities are on the farthest spectrum from one yet another. each and each team have a diverse imaginative and prescient for our united states of america. till all of us come at the same time and are available to a decision to return to the middle and not the extremes would be unable to co exist in a functionally rich way.

The war! The war on terror, the war in Iraq and hopefully a war on Iran. I'd like to see North Korea bombed off the planet too.

The War and the larger issue of peace in the middle east and stabilization.
The Economy
Healthcare
I like that you added the Supreme Court too, something people rarely do discuss but is of immense importance. I feel we will long be suffering the affects of Bush appointees.

Get out of Iraq, bring everyone in Gitmo to trial or let them go, give green cards to all illegal immigrants who are working now, and raise gas standards to 35 mph. Bring on the thumbs down!

The economy. Somebody needs to do something about all this outsourcing, rising poverty, dropping inflation adjusted incomes, and lack of people going into science and engineering majors. We're quickly becoming a McDonald/Wal-Mart nation.
