Gallup Priority Poll


American Public's Priorities for their Elected Representatives

This is an interesting grouping of issues. This is not to be confused with the priorities of the American public (for the D.C. under 35 crowd that would be a different list altogether, read: flip cup, etc.).

American Priorities (and general info from the polling):

1. Iraq: The dominant policy issue.
2. Terrorism/National Security: Should be dealt with.
3. Economy: Lower my gas prices.
4. Energy: Nuclear power and alternative sources.
5. Illegal Immigration: Control the flow.
6. Healthcare: Need reform.
7. Education: Good teachers, good results.
8. Morality: Behave.
9. Fixing Government: Listen to the people.
10. Environment: More needed here.
