President Obama and Candidate Mitt Romney are each striving to prove he has what it takes to move America forward. Yet both campaigns have been light on the issues and hesitatant to put forward detailed policy proposals. The winner of the presidential election faces a litany of challenges, including how to create jobs and kick start the economy, even as the global market sputters. On top of that, a perfect storm of bad economic policy and hyper-partisan legislation has caused the country to hurtle toward a fiscal cliff.
