I am having trouble getting this to run. It compiles just fun, and it will let you click one button but does not recognize a second button click. What am I doing wrong?

it will let you click one button but does not recognize a second button click

Try debugging the code by adding a println statement first thing the actionPerformed() method that prints out the value of the ActionEvent object passed to the method and also the values of any of the variables that the code in the listener method uses to control execution.
The print out will show you what the computer sees (it sees all the button clicks) so you can see where your code is going wrong.
