I personally think that President Obama should focus on the economy first. As you can see, America's economy is HORRIBLE! I think he should focus on changing the way America buys and spends and to help out those who are in need. I think that cutting back on the amount of money that is printed can help us. The American dollar has decreased significantly in the last several years. I also think Obama should focus on healthcare. Thousands of Americans don't have healthcare or insurance. I hope that he would be able to help those American's who are without Healthcare and Insurance. Last but not least, I think he should help unite this country. As we all saw, the day after Election Day American's were DIVIDED. I hope that the new change to America can allow us to get along and to get along better regardless of our backgrounds.
Nothing, the new president is going to tax everyone that is basically rich and turn them broke. He is going to take the money and send it to Kenya and give it to them. So he is going to over tax the Americans that have money. He is going to pull the troops out of Iraq and not fight against terror. The gas prices are going to go to the roof.

I think he should try to keep gas prices down. I think he should try to make peace with the places we war with. He should show everyone that he’ll be a good a president by keeping the promises he made and his word. He should try to get the economy back to where it was four years ago. Make it where nobody has to die in war by not running his mouth. I think he should go back and fix all the problems Bush has messed up which will take more than four years so he has to get to it.
Well you know that everything happened for a reason. I think the there should be many changes in the world and Obama should be one to start those changes. If people choose him is because people want him to be and think that he is able to do things. I think that Obama should focus on education and people in need. Many people I have seen out in the world that need in this world that nobody helps, which people should. If people have jobs they should stay with their jobs to so that people can make money and have good lives. Well I am not the president so I don’t know what to really do to make things better but yup. Jejejejejjejeje ok....LIZ
I think that president Obama will do a great job at being president. I think that he should start off by giving jobs back to people. We (Americans) are in a state of a recession. I think that he should take us out of this war. When we are out of this war I think that jobs will be offered and we will be out of this mess we are in. I think that this will boost the economy and money will be circulating around once again. I think that money makes the world go around. Therefore if jobs are in money is in too once again.

I think Obama was a great choice for president and I'm glad that the majority of the country agreed. Now that he has been elected, I think Barack Obama should put most of his attention on the economy debt. The economy is in a terrible condition and needs serious changes made to help those who are suffering because of this. Many around the world are struggling to get by with the little food that they have because they cannot afford food anymore, or are traveling by foot because they can’t afford the enormously high gas prices. This era is now considered the worst the economy has been since the Great Depression, which took place over half a century ago. I think Obama should put an end to the war in Iraq to help prevent further debt and make an attempt at putting some peace to the world.

I think that Obama should help the economy. The economy is one of the most important things that should be on his list. If the economy keeps on falling more people will become unemployed and not able to support their families. There are a lot of people who are unemployed now imagine how it would be when more people are unemployed. The prices of everything will skyrocket and then all the citizens in America will be in terrible trouble. He should take all of the troops out of the war so all the money would not just go to all of the troops. All of America needs money and most of it is going to the troops. That is what I think!
I think that it is pretty cool that we have the first black president of the United Sates. But I really think that we should finish the war in the Iraq. We shouldn’t just pull all of the troops out of Iraq. One of the things that I don’t agree with him in is that he is going to cut the taxes for the middle and lower class but raise taxes for higher class people and small business owners. That will force them to have to have to close all of the major and small businesses. Also many of the foreign countries that moved their businesses to the United States. Many of the businesses are going to be forced to leave the country, because of the such high taxes which is going to leave many job losses which in the long run going to make the economy worse, and is going to have to force everybody to have to resort living on government welfare. So does Obama really want to make the economy better or worse? Only time can tell. But we will see.

I think that President Obama should be careful about what he does because so many people are used to the things that the Republican Party has done. Some of the things that Obama is for and what he wants to do is kind of ridiculous.
All that I want the president to do now and in the future is to help this country and not tear it down. The Republican Party has done some things that I like and don’t like but something tells me that something is going to go wrong. Also I want the president to work with the Democratic and Republican Party to make this Country, the UNITED STATES OF AMERICA better for the good of all the citizens.
The #1 thing that I want the president to do is keep the troops in IRAQ because if we take them out of the war, then we will have another tragedy that we had on September 11, 2001. I think that we should finish the war so that we can do all we can to prevent something so tragic and dangerous from happening again.

I think that President Obama has many things he has to deal with. One major thing is he needs to deal with the war in Iraq. I think that the soldiers have done their jobs and it might be time to come home, but that is in the future president’s hands. Another thing is the whole gas deal. I think we should do something to keep the prices low so part of the economy can be better. The economy needs to get a lot more improved if our country is going to get any more advanced. One other thing that I think Obama should work with is people’s jobs. Many people expect to lose their jobs very soon, so we need to do something about it all.

I think it doesn’t matters who our president is. What matters is what he does while he is president of our awesome. I think he should give more jobs and get the government out of debt. We are fanatically screwed up and he has to fix it or America will be no more. -summer
With the change of president of the United States there needs to be a change in economy as well. The first task that needs to come to attention should be how American spends their money. We need to figure out how to cut back on items that we can live without. I’m not sure what exactly Obama should do because I myself am confused about what is going down in America today. The leaders of America should start out at the bottom and come up with an idea to bring the United States to its former glory.

I am glad Senator Obama will be president for the United States of America. I didn't think McCain cared about America as much as Obama does. McCain didn’t seem like he knew what he was talking about. In plus I am Democratic and we poor people need the money. I think Obama knows what he is doing. He seems like he will do good in the world because I liked his speeches. I feel save having him as my president.

I think that now that we have a new president, I believe that our economy has got to get better. The economy is already terrible and many people are losing jobs all across America. Personally I think that when I am old enough to run for president, I am going to run that white house. This world is going downhill and I hope that it gets better.
Andrew Metcalf “Jeb”
Personally I could care less whether Obama is black or white, or if he had yellow polka dots. Obama just needs to be smart in his decisions as our president.
One thing that will affect our country is that Obama believes in taxing the upper class is the way to solve the economics of our time. But what he doesn’t understand is that the upper class practically controls the middle and lower class. So if he taxes the upper class he is only hurting everyone else. Because the upper class controls most of the businesses and the exports with the other countries, taxing them will only stop the flow of everything. If the flow of exports comes to a halt the countries that depend on us will suffer as well. Also Obama plans on taking our troops out of Iraq. Personally I believe that we need to stay there because if we come out, they will only follow us into America. And no one wants the war to hit the US soil.
Personally one thing I want to see Obama to do is to be wise about his decisions, because they will affect him too.

I think that new president elect Obama should hit the economy problems first because we need money to support our families and to feed them every day. Also, he needs to hit the gas department because gas prices should be $1.50 or lower because we use our cars everyday for elders to be taken to dialysis and we use our cars for ministries to help other people out there on the streets. As a nation I think the rich and famous should help out the lower class by hiring them to do work for them like concert, stone walls, and other thing that will help the economy. We should all be as one nation and help each other out to the fullest extent. Like for example, Michael Jordan, he should bring down the prices of his clothes and other items and understand the problems that are going on in the economy.
