For me, it's foreign policy.  That may be kind of broad, but I tend to care about our foreign policy more than anything else.

What about the rest of you?

     Unions. It's strange as it's not an issue that affects me, but I like to see the government keeping down the unions.

Right now, it is national security.  its suprising that I support Obama with that as my biggest issue since McCain is perceived as the strongest on Nat Sec.

I think the reason I support Obama is that my next two issues are mostly economical, such as universal health care and properly funding education.  Plus, I think Obama will be good on National Security, more so than Republicans give him credit for.

I know my most passionate issues: Embryonic Stem Cell Research and Capital Punishment. For some reason, those are the two issues I get most inflamed about while debating/ranting.

My three biggest issues are equally important

Health care, education, and infrastructure

My biggest social issue can be described in this phrase:

It's none of your f**king business.

By that standard, Israel is my number 1 issue, and nothing else comes close.

I don't have a single most important issue. The ones I feel most passionate about:

Abortion, Wasteful spending, Drilling in ANWR, School choice (vouchers), National security/War on terrorism

I don't have a one issue that's most important. My primary concerns this election are Civil Liberties, Fiscal Policy, Healthcare, Energy, and Iraq. Not necessarily in that exact order.

1. National Security (defense spending, War on Terror, Iraq, Homeland Security)
2. Fiscal discipline (balanced budgets, across the board tax cuts, reduce government spending)
3. Energy (offshore drilling and ANWR but also becoming less dependent on foreign energy)
