Ipsos i-Say

I hope that our job,s stay here in the USA. Get our country back to where a low income person can make ends meet.

I'm looking forward to a smart, well-spoken president who will be looked to by the world for strong leadership and as a role model for the country and then the world to work together.

I hope the economy bounce back and in a couple of years i can retire and not worry about my retirement fund not being there,the war stops and bring our young men home to raise their family, cut taxes for the ones that need it the most and get a health care plan that everyone can afford and for god sake stop the greedy oil companies from robbing the country blind.

I'm not sure which candidate will win but I hope he will be able to get this country in order again as it is the pits right now. So many things have to be corrected that he will have a long way to go and will need a lot of help not only from Congress but also from the People.

No matter which candidate wins, that person is now in office. I would hope that we could all get along and support our elected officials. The next election is our opportunity to change whatever we don't like. But at the present time we should support our elected officials rather than undermine them. This doesn't mean we have to agree with what they do but don't keep backstabbing.

Simply put, Spiritual Revival!

I am looking forward to rational decision-making, thoughtful policies, and calm negotiations.

My hope for our country is that no matter who becomes our next president, he will work with the congress to get us out of the mess that the government has gotten us into in the first place. We need lower taxes, better health care and more regulation on the banking industry. We sure don't need any more Freddies and Fannies. And I would hope that the media would stop badgering one party while praising the other. Fairness and truth in reporting is much needed.

i hope some one can fix this place be fore it get any worse.i hope they pick the right one.

As with every new president,I hope for good and pray and support each one because he is our elected offical and we should honor them.

Our country is in deep trouble in many areas. Neither candidate is dynammic and neither has satisfied me with a plan for moving our country forward and addressing some critical issues such as the war, the economy, poverty, etc.

I don't like any of the candidates.

What I am hoping for is a better economy, more jobs, our money value to raise, more help for people losing their homes, and that our new president will be able to change the anger that other countries have for us to accepting the USA! Also, that the war in Iraq and Afganistan ends soon.

I will try to give my support to our new President even though he was not my first choice. I do hope he can accomplish at least some of the things he has so promised. Live United is our United Way Campaign Logo. I would like this to be our Logo for the United States. God Bless America!

That our country will truly prosper under the leadership of President Obama and our service members get to see positive results from their sacrifices abroad.

A new begining

I am very fearful for the future of our country, but I do pray we can come together and work on the issues that affect us all. I especially hope that we will once again begin to value life, young or old, and treat all life with respect.

I hope for 1) an opportunity for racial harmony based on modeling appropriate behavior, 2) health care reform that is fair to both patients and providers, 3) an increase in the NIH budget, 4) a sense of measured, thoughtful decision-making in the White House.

I will be glad to see the election over and watch the economy improve under the capable leadership of President Obama and a veto-proof Democratic Congress!

I think that this country has become separated and divided into so many different groups. Therefore my hope is that our presidential leader will be able to unite some of these groups together to enable our nation to gain strength in numbers, become focused in cause and win with determination to suceed overall.

I hope that gas prices continue to go down and that Pell Grants are given a raise (the amount of money that is given to each student who qualifies) as well as a revamping of the educational system that encourages more charter schools and private schools (being opened). I also hope that a troop withdrawl will happen but not in such a way that we have sacrificed for nothing, too many have died for there to be nothing accomplished. I hope that the bailout is persued to be paid back and that the government (we the people) will actually make a profit out of this loan to wallstreet. I would also like to see the bigwigs who profitted from the mess they made be held accountable and have everything taken back from them and they should all be prosecuted!

Not looking for much with the democrats giving every thing away. and cutting our military to bits.

That Barack Obama wins. Then all will be well.

I am looking forward to big changes in the country. I want to see the war in Iraq ended and our people come home. I think we need to pay more attention to the homeland and our problems here: poverty, famine, no jobs, too much money going to the war. I'm looking forward to all peoples pulling together as one--Americans--rather than as individual races, nationalities or religions. We need to rebuild for a stronger, braver, united America.

I would like to see no back biting in the future between the different political groups. I would hope that our Government will proceed ahead to handle our problems with honesty and what is best for our Country.

My hope is that whichever candidate is elected to the highest office in the land on November 4 will truly work hard to bring about some of the changes promised during the campaign, changes that will make life better for all citizens of this great country: Lower taxes, provide health care for all, lower college costs, provide better schools for our children, lower gasoline prices, better job opportunities, straighten out the mortgage mess, improve the economy,and bring our brave troops home soon to their families.

There are several issues that each of the canidates have that I disagree with. And it really doesn't matter who is elected, we are witnessing a historical event. We will either have the 1st African American (I really hate those politically correct phrases too), or the 1st female V.P.. As it turns out Obama won the election. I rooted for him when he was running for the Senate the 1st time. And he accomblished some good things for the State of Illinois. What we need to do is band together and stand behind our new President. But I also strongly feel that it would be wrong of us to just pull our troops out of the Middle East. And I hope his advisors convince him to stand back for awhile. And I pray that he will be given the opportunity to do some good for The United States of America.

I would hope that the economy would improve. This country needs to create and KEEP jobs here in America. If everyone was working, the economy would improve, and there would be less crime.

We need someone with a backbone! Someone who will look at what Austrailia did and follow suit....if you want to "join" our country then you need to "learn" our country...why are we...the americans...the ones who have to learn a new language, pay more for health insurance, pay more taxes, pay for a better education for our children, etc., etc., etc., and the ones that "join" us are getting free health insurance, no taxes, free education, not to mention the free food, housing, medicines, and government checks...enough is enough!

My main hope is that we will be able to recognize the main tenants of our country four years from now, specifically our freedoms (such as they may be even now) and that we will be able to continue our own individual hopes,dreams, and aspirations. We don't need to be forced to support or lift up those who do not want to put forth the same effort. Dreams are realized through hard work and personal sacrifice. Americans are the biggest givers in this world whenever a disater strikes or we know of another in our community, our country or even in the world in need, is that we respond to thaose needs - in a big way. It would be nice to know we will be able to continue to do that in the future.

Let's pray that President Obama leads this nation in all the wright ways and brings everyone together.

For the first time since Kennedy, I feel deep, honest, life-giving Hope. Past messes by numerous administrations take time to fix. Patience and concerted, cohesive efforts of many, are needed to turn The Ship off rocky shoals, onto navigable waters: help Ourselves and the World repair damages. Obama cannot do it alone. The People must say what we WANT the world to look like. Fix environmental issues: without a functional world, there's no point in anything else. As those get fixed, associated repairs to education, support for sciences, more jobs, cleaner industries, better medical coverage and care will happen: Everything is linked to environment. The World knows "as the US goes, so goes the world". We finally placed a candidate they respect into office--a rare occurrence! Take deep breaths, roll up shirtsleeves, get ready to work!

I hope that people weigh the issues carefully. Both candidates have good and not so good platforms. I think one of them has a great speaking ability, but will he be able to deliver what he has promised? I'm thinking, no. He is too inexperienced to carry out his big, unrealistic plans. I'm just saying....

We need a Democrate to become President. I think that we need help in better insurance and economy. I don't think that War is the answer. We need to bring our Men and Woman back!

This promise of change has be a long time in coming. I supported this effort and look forward to a positive result.

I have hopes that with new people will come new ideas that will get our country on the road to financial recovery. No matter who was elected they would have a large struggle this first year to work towards financial recovery and to settle our affairs overseas. We are very naive if we believe that we have full honesty in our officials and that because of a new election there will be straight across the board in making laws and passing legislation that will fix everything. We just have to make sure we study and elect those we believe in and make sure the check and balances are in order.

Right on, Grace! I’m so tired of our tax money being spent to provide accommodations for people who are here illegally. Neither candidate for president is willing to address this issue for fear of offending someone. Why be afraid of offending illegal aliens? They can't vote. I've heard Obama talk about companies that ship jobs overseas; what about companies that hire illegal aliens? The jobs are gone no matter what happens. We will never get ahead no matter how much we work and save because the government will find ways to take more tax dollars and use them to help criminals (or people who refuse to help themselves). Our infrastructure can't support this huge, unplanned growth in population. Our schools are not equipped to provide so much ESL help.

I would like to see Obama run this country like it should have been ran for many of years!

My hopes are tax cuts for the middle class and to restore or economy, we are headed for the next great depression. The Biggest one of all is to bring our troops home. They have been there long enough

I'm just worried that whoever gets in won't do a decent job--based on our choices this time around, if we were given that option "none of the above" would win in a landslide!

I hope the economy improves, gas prices continue to go down, and the Republicans win!

I have real Hope that this country will move forward with Families and Small Businesses leading the way...screw Big Business they have done nothing for this country except ROB US BLIND!!!

This is one of if not THE most important presidential elections. We need to vote. I'm voting for Barack!

Well, it's the day after the big election and I am hopeful that now that we have a new president-elect our nation will start to move in the right direction and the economy, which is, right now, my number 1 worry, takes a turn for the better. I know it will be months, if not years, before we are out of the hole we're in, but I am very hopeful that last night we took a big step in rectifying the situation

I THINK IT'S GREAT WE HAVE A DEMOCRATAS PRESIDENT.ALSO THE MAJORITY OF THE SENATE IS ALSO DEMOCRATS.OBAMA AND HIS WIFE TOOK THEIR OWN MONEY AND HELPED OUT THE HURRICANE VICTIMS AFTER IKE.IT'S ALSO AWESOME THAT HE IS GONNA PULL THE TROOPS OUT OF IRAC.ABOUT TIME.MY FIANCE IS A NAVY VET AND HE WAS IN IRAQ.UNFORTUNATELY IT'S GONNA TAKE HIS WHOLE TERM AS PRESIDENT TO UNDO ALL OF BUSH JR'S DAMAGE.

My hope is that we can put aside our fears and work towards peace in our homes ,coumminities and our country

Following the election of the President I hope that the economy goes better.

Moral Stabillity

That the world will be a better place,and racism will stop!
