CANDIDATES AND THEIR ISSUES

LET'S TAKE A CLOSER LOOK at the positions of the four remaining politicians at the top of the two major party tickets. Please take your time. These links are loaded with other links. It is not only imperative to know what a candidate says, but one should know what a candidate has done in the past. While it is tough to gauge what a candidate will do in the future, one's history does play a role. Voting personalities or traditional party line is one matter, voting the for the whole package something quite different. Become an intelligent voter. Know your candidates.

Republican Ticket...

John McCain, US Senator, (R-AZ)

Sarah Palin, US Governor, (R-AK)

Democratic Ticket...

Barack Obama, US Senator, (D-IL)

Joe Biden, US Senator, (D-DE)

Apologies to the campaigns of Ron Paul (R-TX), Cynthia McKinney, Bob Barr (R-GA), Chuck Baldwin, Mike Gravel (D-AK), Ralph Nader, and any others of hinterland label who have stumbled onto the ballot somewhere around these fifty (yes, fifty, Senator Obama) states. Two words: snowball's chance. But check out this wonderful resource. Even the hinterlanders have their "say" and "do" memorialized. Even those who didn't make the cut.
