Obama must focus on U.S. to start

This is in response to the story, "Obama must form a vision for the Middle East."

Why should that be President Obama's job? There are more than one World Power Countries to stick their nose in it. Why not think first of America for a change. Help find jobs for the unemployed, shelter for the homeless, better care for injured soldiers coming home from that stupid war and families who lost their dad over there.

And it seems that's what President Obama's first agenda is.
