Nearly all voters agreed the economy was in poor shape. Eight in 10 said they were worried the economic crisis would harm their family’s future, while about half said they were “very worried.” At least four in 10 said their family's financial situation worsened since 2004. And a stunning two-thirds expressed concern about affording health care. Health care and the economy. Not unrelated. Personally, I would add the environment, but that is still too abstract and far off in time for most. If he gets the right people, all of those things can be related, and can help to build the country "from the ground up" as Klein said in the piece I posted earlier. It would take longer than the usual bromides for goosing the economy, but would be more solid and sustainable.
