Simple yes or no. Is abortion the most important issue that the US is currently facing and are you pro-life or pro-choice?

No, I don't think any objective person thinks it's the most important issue.

However, I do think that a person's stance on abortion tends to correlate with a lot of other things, and is an excellent indicator.

I think it is the most important issue in general and that makes border security and immigration policy an even more important issue right now because poor immigrants mostly vote Democrat.

The only people who don't think abortion is important are people who themselves were not aborted. yet so eager to sign up other people for something that they would not want done to them.

No, the most important issue is to restore sanity in politics starting with the president. Everything else will follow from there.

Most important issue? I do not even think it is on the radar except among the fanatical, single issue voters.

On a list of my 100 important things, it would not even make the list.

I rank it somewhere between naming a post office and naming a bridge.

The biggest issue is keeping girls from getting unecessarily knocked up. Solve that somehow, and abortion will be a non-issue.

3 most pressing issues that have long term disastrous effects are, lack of money management, single parent households and sexualization of the children.

Again, all due to getting knocked up.

No, but I bet it's somewhere as a Top 10 issue with at least some people.

Pressing or Important. Both mean different things.
