Zusammenfassung:	This paper discusses selective hot-topic areas for the progressive caucus as election day for 2012 draws closer. It explores the many areas that Americans are concerned about today, including: immigration, house foreclosures, national banks and the education system. We delve into the many opportunities there are for the incumbent president to tap into in order to prove himself as the best presidential candidate once again. Political factions aside, the progressive vote is the vote of the future, so long as the candidates uphold the ideals and stay true to the caucus' intentions.
