    For me, this election has to be all about finance. Who can start the turn around this country so desperately needs. I have read Romney's plan, and while I think 12 million jobs in 4 years is on the extreme high end, I believe his plan would create close to 10 million jobs in 4 years.

    For Obama. What will he do to reverse the national debt he has increased so much during his first term, and why should we believe it won't spin further out of control with him in office

    For Romney. What will he do about the increasing cost of healthcare. What is his plan to help all Americans afford more and better healthcare

    Firstly, Romney can't do anything directly with the fiscal cliff, it occurs before he comes into power, let alone the President having direct control on the voting in Congress. But from what I've heard, the lame duck congress does tend to follow voter patterns even if they aren't re-elected. When 2008 shifted democratic, the lame duck let stuff slide towards left views. When 2010 saw a referendum and shifted back right, the democrats let more bills go that were right wing in view.

    But I could be wrong again. link

    For both candidates:
    1. How do you plan on moving America past a consumer culture to one that values human rights and freedoms over corporate profits?
    2. How do you plan on reintroducing by-the-people-for-the-people democracy to America?
    3. How do you plan on reducing the billions spent on the military and enacting a foreign policy that emphasizes peace and autonomy?
    4. Can I get another hit of what Barry's smoking because I am not nearly high enough to think that any of these questions would be taken seriously.

    10,000 years ago, the great lakes were under miles of glaciers. Where did the glaciers go? And why would you expect the cause to be any different from any warming going on now?

    The planet has gone through natural warming and cooling cycles, of course. But data shows recent (past few hundred years and accelerating last 50 or so) warming that is totally out of line with natural cycles. Data shows that human activity is a major if not the major contributor to this anomalous warming. That is accepted by nearly all the world's climate scientists based on the actual research.

    great questions, sad thing is that even if they were asked, they would get dismissed with lies and doubletalk

    your prez

    1) If I were to become famous, youu would be able to find at least 25 other people per year that would say they were in class with me, why is it that we can not do the same for you?

    2) After four years of green tech failure, why do you keep pushing for it?

    3) When are you going to present a budget that will pass?

    4) Past presidents have become more moderate as their term went on, this allowed both parties to work together, why have you gone to the other extreme and ensured division?

    "Why do debates matter? Is it possible that there will be any substantive answers to things in this forum? Shouldn't voters have access to enough information in other areas where they don't need to rely on how someone does in this sort of freak show?"

    That's three questions, I guess.

    Just want to know, this is the one guy we know the least about, seems like his history changes depending on what is best for him at any given time.

    I couldn't name a single person I graduated with. If someone famous graduated with me, I'd be the perfect person to rush in front of the media to say I don't remember him. Probably lying.

    Then I would have to believe that you are the exception, most celebs have hundreds, if not thousands of people that "knew" you is K through 12 alone. Throw in any of the three collages he attended and the post grad stuff....should be more than three guys that remembered smoking dope with him

    Have they interviewed everyone he went to school with?
    Also, is it your belief that he didn't go to those schools?

    Interview who? Were are the records? What schools did he attend? Who knows? I dont, nor do you or anyone that would defend him, that is the point.
