9. What would help is if Obama were much more progressive with his
policies.. There in lies my problem with the candidate. I want Universal Healthcare. I want fair trade policies. I don't want Nuclear Energy to become the saving grace from oil; not when my degree and knowledge says better. I want to work 30hrs a week and my husband to work 30hrs a week and for that to be enough money to provide a life, home, and existence (esp. want time enjoying my home and family). I want my science degree to mean I can actually get a job in that field (increase scientific funding). I want more money spent on education; not bombs.

Now don't get me wrong, I understand that Obama is not the congress. I understand that these things haven't happened yet. I'm not sure they will happen in the next 4 to 8 years. I really hope so.
