Implementing an economic policy
According to the Greek daily Kathimerini, Obama must first tackle the economy: "After all, we have seen that in practice it was the economy that gave Obama his victory. ... In 1992 Bill Clinton was elected under the slogan 'It's the economy stupid'. For the second time in 16 years a democratic candidate has won because his economic message gained acceptance. ... Obama must now make good on his promises to implement a progressive economic policy that helps both the working class and the middle class and at the same time preserves the trust of the markets. ... 62 percent of the voters in a survey said that the economic situation was the most important factor behind their decision. Only 10 percent mentioned terrorism or other issues."
