What do you think President Obama should focus on for 2012? 

Everybody knows that jobs are the number one priority.

More jobs. I feel like a lot of people are out of work. It’s hard to find and keep a job.

Stopping violence. It’s getting ridiculous in our community. People are killing each other over stupid things.

Foreclosures. People need more help. Banks are taking people’s homes and they need more help and more information about how to save their homes.

I think he should focus more on immigration. He hasn’t paid a lot of attention to this issue. A lot of this country runs on the work of immigrants  — farms, businesses. He should focus on reforming the system.

I think he should focus on young people. There’s a lot of violence and issues in schools they’re dealing with. Since they’re the future, that’s what he should be dealing with.

I think that the Governor should focus on community building, beginning with the youth...that way, by the next generation, more people will be interested in how they relate to their neighbors as such, as opposed to relating to those aforementioned neighbors within the context of what they possess, as it is now...Hence, the robbery, drug addiction, and murder.
