1) Someone to put together an improved international coalition to deal with Iraq, Iran, N. Korea, Sudan. The UN isn't exactly a bastion of morality or effectiveness, but we have to make it better, and we have alternatives. Clinton made excellent use of NATO in Yugoslavia.

2) Someone to fix the tremendous unbalance in US economy by a spendthrift President and Republican dominated Congress that things we have nothing but money to throw at outmoded and useless big defense projects.

3) A less dogmatic choice for the next set of Supreme Court justices.

4) A more positive and informed approach to scientific research, government sponsorship, and what science is all about.

5) A more hands-off approach to a woman's right to choose. Greater government sponsorship for world-wide family planning.

6) Government officials with better senses of (intentional) humor and a bit more self deprecation.
