Bigshot experts love to hear themselves bloviate nothingness while filling Washington and most of America with their important sounding hot air, but fail to understand the needs of grassroots America.
Here is a compilation of what they think the top 7 issues are going to be in the upcoming 2024 Presidential election.
After reading them, please tell the world what your top issues are!
1. Social Security and Medicare dilemma is a time bomb threatens our nation's finances. These overburdened entitlement programs, meant to protect the most vulnerable, have become unsustainable, burdening hard-working people.
President Biden's State of the Union address again showed Democrats and Republicans' significant ideological gap on Social Security and Medicare. The heated argument has been fueled by Republicans' insistence on cutting spending and the nation's rising debt ceiling. President Biden blatantly attacked Republicans for proposing reforms to address low eligibility rules to protect these vital programs in his presentation.
2. Education and Parents’ Rights are serious and need prompt attention. It is well known our school system needs overhaul.
Candidates for the 2024 Republican nomination have focused on criticizing the current educational curriculum and protecting parents' rights.
Florida Governor Ron DeSantis was a brave leader in opposing divisive views in education. He rejected an Advanced Placement course on African American studies to resist the left's identity politics and revisionist history.
America must protect children's minds from radical ideas that want to undermine our shared values and traditions. Governor DeSantis has shown his dedication to a well-rounded education values meritocracy, individualism, and objective truth by rejecting this course.
The left's outrage over this decision reveals their actual goals. They utilize education to promote their political goal rather than creating an environment Virginia Governor Glenn Youngkin has bravely defended education against critical race theory. He staunchly supports parental involvement in education and demands greater transparency and accountability in school curriculum selections.
3. Abortion, a divided and contentious issue. Democrats cynically used abortion's divisiveness to win the November midterms. Abortion debates will resurface in the highly anticipated Wisconsin Supreme Court campaign. The court will decide Wisconsin's 1849 abortion legislation, which has divided pro-life and pro-choice advocates. Does a woman have the right to declare: “My Body My Rights” If so, then does this apply to forced government vaccines and government sterilization?
4. Foreign Policy is essential to every nation's government. The unexpected discovery of a Chinese surveillance balloon above several American states has ignited heated arguments about our response to China's assertive foreign policy. Democrats and Republicans have rightly expressed their dismay at the slow reaction to this looming threat.
Additionally, serious issues like the Ukraine crisis will dominate foreign policy discussions. Republicans are worried about the amount of U.S. security aid to the former Soviet Union after the Russian incursion.
5. Illegal Alien Invasion Crisis: A National Security Risk Immigration has become a contentious issue in recent years. Republicans remain focused on the open border dilemma and uncontrolled invasion on the southern border.
The long-awaited first hearing of the year by the House Judiciary Committee addressed "The Biden Border Crisis." The number of interactions on the southern border rose to 250,000 in December, putting the Biden administration under tremendous scrutiny for its poor immigration policy.
This alarming rise in illegal border crossings has shown the current administration's immigration policy shortcomings, making Americans understandably anxious about our nation's security and sovereignty. Title 42, appropriately enacted during the Trump administration, adds much-needed nuance to the discussion.
6. LGBTQ Debate and Traditional Values: Conservative Views LGBTQ concerns have been more popular in recent years. Recently, the Republican Party has boldly supported LGBTQ-related legislation. Important problems include gender-affirming care, transgender sports participation, and gender identity and sexual orientation education in schools.
Florida's "Don't Say Gay" law and South Dakota's potential legislation to restrict transgender youth's access to gender-affirming care demonstrate the Republican Party's dedication to traditional values and protecting society from radical social agendas.
7. Crime is growing exponentially and requires immediate attention. Republicans are openly emphasizing crime's impact on key 2018 races. Crime was critical to Republicans' victory in key House districts and majority status. Candidates are expected to emphasize crime prevention and criminal justice reform amid rising law and order debates.
But what are your top issues?
The so-called 'top bigshots' are conveniently sidestepping crucial matters such as the alarming inflation rates, the disastrous Climate Change agenda, the troubling endorsement of anti-Semitism in educational institutions, reckless government spending, the ever-expanding bureaucracy, and the pardoning of the January 6th political prisoners.
And the list goes on, exposing the glaring omissions of these supposed 'important issues.'
There is so money more issue which must be addressed, including safeguarding individual liberties, defending the sanctity of life, promoting fiscal responsibility, upholding traditional values, and preserving the integrity of our Constitution.

At the moment, "my personal top issue" with the 2024 election: IS THERE GOING TO BE ONE??
Top Issue or Election?
I think what June is saying: will any of the issues be a top issue?
What I am saying is "Will there even be an election??"
Have you ever wondered what would happen if a war broke out during a U.S. presidential election? With the upcoming election and the current global pandemic, President Trump has raised the idea of postponing the election. But what does the law actually say about this? In this article, we will explore the constitutional authority, historical precedent, and the process for postponing a federal election. We will also discuss the potential judicial challenges and the impact of war on elections.
Constitutional Authority for Election Timing
The Constitution’s authority for election timing lies in Congress’ power to choose the date of the General Election. The Constitution explicitly states that the president and vice president shall hold office for a term of four years. While Article II Section 2 provides the president with narrow powers, none of them include changing the timing of the General Election. Instead, Congress has the authority to determine the timing of the election, as established by a federal statute enacted in 1845. It is important to note that no presidential election has been postponed since the enactment of this law.
In the event that there is a desire to postpone a federal election, Congress would need to amend the 1845 federal law and the president would have to sign it. However, the chances of this occurring are slim due to the political control of the House of Representatives, Senate, and Executive Branch. Even if such an agreement were reached, a judicial challenge would likely arise. A recent case in New York, where the Democratic presidential primary was canceled, provides insight into the potential ruling of the judicial branch. The court found that canceling the election violated the First and Fourteenth Amendments and emphasized the importance of having elections go forward.
Courts have consistently found irreparable injury in cases where voters allege constitutional violations of their right to vote. While emergency orders and regulations have been upheld by courts, a postponement of an election may not survive a judicial challenge. Courts draw a line when it comes to the right to vote and have a strong public interest in having elections proceed. Moreover, a postponement of the presidential election would likely run afoul of the 20th Amendment, which states that the presidential term ends on January 20th. It is worth noting that moving the date of a presidential election would not affect state and local elections.
Despite unpredictable times, the presidential election is expected to be held on November 3rd. Any new law changing the election dates would require public support and would still face potential judicial challenges. The right to vote is protected by the courts, making a postponement unlikely to survive legal scrutiny. Additionally, the 20th Amendment sets the end of the presidential term on January 20th, posing a challenge to changing the election date. State and local elections would not be affected by moving the federal general election.
Precedent of Election Postponement
To understand the precedent of election postponement, let’s consider previous instances where elections were held during challenging times. No presidential election has been postponed since Congress enacted the 1845 federal law. President Lincoln was reelected during the Civil War in 1864, and President Franklin Roosevelt was elected to a third and fourth term during World War II. Postponing a presidential election would break a 175-year precedent.

Process for Postponing a Federal Election
Amendments to the federal law and the president’s signature are required to postpone a federal election. The process for postponing a federal election would involve amending legislation, which would need to be passed by Congress and signed by the president. However, the chances of this occurring are slim due to the political control of the House of Representatives, Senate, and Executive Branch. Even if Congress and the president agreed on postponing an election, a judicial challenge would likely arise. A recent case in New York, where the Democratic presidential primary was canceled, provides some insight into how the judicial branch would rule. The court found that canceling the election violated the First and Fourteenth Amendments and emphasized the importance of having elections go forward. Courts have consistently found irreparable injury in cases where voters allege constitutional violations of their right to vote. The right to vote is protected by the courts, making a postponement unlikely to survive legal scrutiny. Additionally, the 20th Amendment sets the end of the presidential term on Jan. 20, posing a challenge to changing the election date. Therefore, despite unpredictable times, the presidential election is expected to be held on Nov. 3.
Judicial Challenges to Postponing an Election
You may face a judicial challenge if you attempt to postpone an election during wartime. Courts have consistently found irreparable injury in cases where voters allege constitutional violations of their right to vote. Emergency orders and regulations have been upheld by courts, but a postponement of an election may not survive a judicial challenge. A recent case in New York, where the Democratic presidential primary was canceled, provides some insight into how the judicial branch would rule. The court found that canceling the election violated the First and Fourteenth Amendments and emphasized the importance of having elections go forward. A postponement of the presidential election would likely run afoul of the 20th Amendment, which states the presidential term ends on Jan. 20. Moving the date of a presidential election would involve several moving parts and would not affect state and local elections. In summary, attempting to postpone a presidential election during wartime would likely face significant legal hurdles, including challenges based on the First Amendment, Fourteenth Amendment, and the 20th Amendment.
Expectations for the Presidential Election
As we continue discussing the expectations for the presidential election, it is important to note that despite the unpredictable times, the election is expected to be held on Nov. 3. However, there are several factors that could impact the election process.
One key consideration is public support. Any change to the election date would require significant public support in order to be successful. Additionally, legal scrutiny would be applied to any attempts to postpone the election. The right to vote is protected by the courts, making a postponement unlikely to survive legal challenges.
Furthermore, the 20th Amendment poses a challenge to changing the election date. It states that the presidential term ends on Jan. 20, creating a strict timeline for the transfer of power. Moving the date of the election would involve several logistical challenges and would not affect state and local elections.
It is also worth considering the historical impact of war on elections. While war casts a long shadow over elections, there is a precedent of holding elections during difficult times. Past examples, such as President Lincoln’s election during the Civil War and President Roosevelt’s multiple terms during World War II, demonstrate the resilience of the electoral process.
Impact of War on Elections
War has a profound influence on elections. It significantly impacts the factors that influence voters and the structure of choice in elections. The role of military experiences becomes a significant factor in shaping public opinion and influencing voter decisions. During times of war, domestic politics also play a crucial role in shaping the political landscape. Here are three key points to consider:

During times of war, domestic politics also play a crucial role in shaping the political landscape. Here are three key points to consider:
Our Nation has NEVER postponed a Federal election due to war... Elections during war provide the public with a robust debate over the Nation's options as it engages in War. That is a GOOD thing. as it challenges the current government to listen to the people and their desire regarding committing their sons and daughters to war.
If anything, Federal ELections become more important during periods of war... besides, there is NO CONSTITUTIONAL authority to postpone a federal election. It would take a CONSTITUTIONAL Amendment to set aside the current Constitutional language directing the conduct of Federal Elections. End of Debate.
Ok, good point.
If there is a war - no election
If there is mass cheating - no election
Only a fair voting process can produce an election!
Who defines CHEATING or FAIR VOTING.. the party in power? How will that work?
Election!
