But what would be a conservatives top 5 list of concerns?
Illegal immigration
The politicalization of our federal intelligence and justice departments
Loss of faith in the electorial system, attempts to overturn election results
Dissmal of basic rights as a fundamental principle, including freedom of speech and religion
Erosion of the concept of “Innocent until proved guilty”
I wish I could worry about education and federal budgets, like in the past, but right now the above are a far greater threat to our nation - they have the power to literally permanently destroy it.

1) economy/jobs
2) health care /costs
3) illegal immigration
4) borrowing #4 and #5 from Old Hag - wrapped up into one big ball of wax - erosion of free speech rights, media-created social turmoil, intolerance to opposing points of view....the constant 'nothing is good in this country' with which I wholeheartedly DISAGREE,
5) my property taxes LOL OK -
5) politicians. Time for a changing of the guard. They seem to forget they are outnumbered, however, they DO keep getting re-elected, a very troubling situation in and of itself. The political rancor and in-fighting are embarrassing and very troubling, too. Nothings getting done.
1. illegal immigration
2. continuing huge run up of national debt, inability to balance the budget
3. massive corruption by both major parties
4. continuing power grab by the federal government
5. A media that is mostly aligned with the democrats
Conservatives love to talk about illegals but then don't hold the GOP accountable for next actually fixing the problem.
We came to close real reform with Obama and the gang of 8, but the GOP torpedoed the whole thing.
Meanwhile, illegals continue to do jobs in this country that no citizen has any interest in doing, and they get demonized for doing so
I hold both parties responsible.
"Real Reform".... give me a break. Put a wall up, close the border if need be. Then start arresting employers who hire illegals. Deport any illegal who does as much as jaywalk. That's real reform.
