Obama's First 100 days


In Franklin Delano Roosevelt's first one hundred days as president, he proposed and Congress passed many major laws that attempted to deal with the Great Depression.  Take a look at the NY Times 100 days blog, free registration required, to remind yourself about the New Deal.  

What should Obama do with his first hundred days?  In 100 words (it fits doesn't it) or more, give us your opinion about the country's most pressing issue.  If President Obama has begun to work on your issue, what do you think, so far?   In a few days, after several people have responded, comment on another student's posting.  

Important: Since this will be graded, put your first name, and last initial at the end of your posting.  For your safety, do no give your complete name, blood type, social security number or anyother information that could identify you to the general public.
