This question is for people of all nations, not just Americans, in case anyone was wondering.

meh, I chose environment, but that's only on a political level...
I'm not much of a green-freak, but I'd like for our government to trying being more environment friendly, simply because we can and there is no good excuse not to be...

Agreed. I'm a moderate environmentalist, however. I think we should recycle, turn off the light when we leave the room, not keep the water running while we brush our teeth, pick up litter, etc., but leave it at that. The pantheism that is so prevalent among environmentalist movements today is appalling.

Well...the lights and the water, I can agree with...recycling and picking up litter requires me to go out of my way. However, not littering is something I try to do. Also, I'm all for a move for renewable fuel sources. If politicians put more of a focus on it, I believe it could happen...(err, it is happening,...but I mean it could possibly completely replace dirty fuels in at least a century...)

Terrorism and International Affairs kinda relate. I'm pretty damn sure Osama has Bush/Cheny banners all over his cave right now. Know why? Bush's poor forgein policy is driving other countries away from us. France? Germany? Now Singapore and Spain...who's next?

Turkey (in case you missed the news about that Turk getting killed)

True, but by International Affairs I meant our relations with allies and other foreign countries (International Relations would have sounded better, then).

I went with other because there's really not a single issue that concerns me the most--almost every one of the options concerns me a great deal. The domestic ones worry me more than the foreign affairs ones, mainly because I'm here and not there, but they all worry me because we really are a global society now, and what we do affects billions of other people.

It's a tough choice between Environment and Civil Rights, but I went with Civil Rights, because there's not much that can get me angrier than hypocritical people taking away a right most of the world acknowledges.

I'm mostly concerned with the legalization of marijuana.

Is that just because you want to get high legally? lol - just kidding - but why would a relatively minor and unimportant issue like this be at the forefront of your conerns? Just curious ;)

The Transplants made a song called D.R.E.A.M.

It stands for "Drugs rule everything around me"

That pretty sums up why I'm so concerned about it.

Interesting, I don't quite get it, but that may have more to do with my sleep deprivation than your explanation.

D.R.E.A.M. = "Drugs Rule Everything Around Me."

The same applies to me.

I'm going to have to go with civil rights. Not to suggest I'm not concerned with other things on that list, but civil rights would be at the top.

Crime is insane now-a-days!!
