America in Trouble?

Considering the huge deficits, the stock disasters,and Hurricane Ike, what do you think about the situation? Worse case realistic scenario would be what? Which presidential candidate do you think can help us make the best recovery? How long do you think it would take us to be out of this massive deficit? Side-note I've read that Russia is stocking up on gold and other valuable commodities in preparation for a total crash of the dollar. Perhaps some paranoid reporter, but I thought it might be worth sharing. What do you guys think?
