I assume this is for the US, yes? Different countries have different sets of issues.
My top three picks (I'm still deciding the order) would be:
Health Insurance - healthcare system is terrible for a first world country... people think they can't do better, when in reality insurance companies are making millions of of them
Unemployment - Giving all citizens the means to earn a decent living is vastly important
Corruption - I don't mean taking bribes. I mean fixing a system where elected officials end up being more beholden to corporations and the interests of other rich benefactors, rather than to the constituents who actually elected them. Unfortunately, this may require revamping the whole political system.

PS. If you can, try your hand at giving some of the others a bit of feedback. If you already have, thanks, can you do some more?
