Obama and Key Election issues
Thursday 06th, November 2008
Congratulations to Obama for a very successful election campaign. Obama is now the President-elect and in effect the current Shadow President till January 2009.

What were the three most important issues in the US Presidential election?

The answer is simple:
1. Economy
2. Healthcare
3. Terrorism

It is important for us to evaluate and compare the related issues in India.

1. Economy
Barack Obama has offered a detailed plan to get America’s economy back on track, by creating new jobs and easing the burden on hardworking Americans by offering middle-class tax cuts three times the size of McCain’s.

2.Healthcare
Barack Obama’s health care plan will provide accessible, affordable coverage for all, and it will reduce health care costs for families.

3. Terrorism and Homeland Security
Barack Obama supports increased security measures for our airports, ports, and land borders, part of a national plan to protect American’s infrastructure and keep our communities safe.
