+ A repeal of Don't Ask, Don't Tell within the first year.
+ A tax plan very similar to that of Bill Clinton's; the marginal highest tax rate will be raised to 39% and the capital gains tax will be raised.
+ Universal health care legislation pushed through by the end of his first year.
+ A sizable investment in alternative energies in a New Deal-like packaging that will help create new jobs and build new infrastructure.
+ Hank Paulson will not keep his job. Ben Bernanke will be replaced in 2010.
+ Above all, his first term will be defined by how he deals with the incoming economic tidal wave... his first few years will be defined by it. If he can successfully steer the country of a recession (or close to it) by 2012 , he will win re-election in a huge landslide.
