Hi. While at a party last night, a guest admitted that she was not educated on the candidates. She also said she wasn't even sure she was going to vote because she didn't know enough about either one. She admitted that she had not taken the time to get educated. I was shocked.
It is unimaginable for me to think that someone wouldn't vote.

I know that it gets confusing - all the back and forth, etc.

I had heard of a website that gives information on all the candidates and issues. They don't support or oppose any candidate or party.

If you don't know where you stand yet, please take the time to check this out.

League of Women Voters US: Election Day 2008 Will Affect Your Entire Family (http://www.lwv.org/Election2008/index.html)

Also - please vote on November 4th.

Try this link A nice site to find out the basics on the candidates and the issues
OnTheIssues.org - Candidates on the Issues (http://www.ontheissues.org/default.htm)

Thanks Tom, the site is quite good, especially this page:
Pop-up Grid: Issues (http://www.ontheissues.org/Issue_Grid.htm)

This is a good site! Thanks for sharing!

I was listening to the Howard Stern show this morning and they sent a reporter out on the street to ask people who they were voting for.

If the person said Obama the reporter would say oh so you agree with him being Pro life and do you support him Picking Sarah Palin as his running mate every person said YES.

Same thing with the people who said they are voting for McCain the reporter would say so you agree with him being Pro Choice and do you approve him selecting Joe Biden for his running mate and every person said Yes!!

Talk about uneducated!!
