Off the top of my head, the economy as well as our global reputation stand out as massive national problems. There's also the alarming impact that the Iraq war has on our national debt. I see these are just a few of the problems and the "wrong direction" that we have been headed in, for a while. It is magnified by living overseas for the last 18 months, and observing firsthand the extremely poor opinion of all things American, in several countries.

Fair 'nuff. Good to know.

Let's say that's the worst-case scenario (I disagree that it is, but just going with your opinion). Do you really think that could be worse than the last 8 years? I guess I don't. And maybe there's just no resolution to that difference of opinion.
