American Economy: What grand solution?

I am a little perplexed by the general message I think am hearing correctly from the presidential campaign candidates.  The message I am hearing is, a change of leadership will bring about a solution to our economic woes.  Well, we were told that before in the face of a looming financial monster just before Obama took office.  Since then Congress has been asked to raise the U.S. debt ceiling four times and the national debt is higher than ever before with no sign of stopping.  Regardless of the candidate’s party affiliation and worldview, what miracle solution is there that can’t be done at present, in spite of the present administration?  I don’t understand the logic.  What grand knowledge do any of these candidates have that would warrant me to vote one way or another, that can’t just be put into action now?  Why wait for a new president for these alleged solutions.  Is anybody else hearing this insanity?  I might be off, however, in that I may be oversimplifying their respective proposals towards a remedy for this financial crisis.
