10 huge issues being ignored in the U.S. presidential campaign ➔

election:

think-progress:

Here’s our list, what do you think is going unaddressed?

Unfortunately, Obama and Romney take very similar positions on a lot of the stuff on this list — the drug war, internet privacy, and the security state, for instance — and if there’s no conflict, why would we even mention such an issue? </sarcasm>

What would you add to the list?

I’m actually perturbed the most that Obama has not only made the issue of marijuana legalization a laughing matter but, as a minority himself, has failed to address why more minorities are being incarcerated for a plant which the DEA has unequivocally stated that no cases of overdose have ever been reported.
