Would you happen to have a link to a page that expains these 3 candidates in detail? McCain does not seem like he would be a horrible choice, better than Hillary anyways and I would like to have the complete 401 on each as I may be missing as few things. You and Sansui make for a very interesting read. |
I can give you a rundown as i know it... as i'm stuck between both legitmate candidates at this point.
Iraq
Clinton: Pull out within 2 years, with an option to go back if things get too bad. (and if public opinion agrees.)
Obama: Pull out within 2 years, with a small strike force situated in iraq to take out AlQueda and other terrorists in the state and other countries like pakistan. Whether Pakistan agrees or not.
McCain: Have American troops out in 5 years, with a small contingent of troops there like we do in countries like Japan and Germany. This contigent would not be used for day to day policing.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Economy
Clinton: Grow green collar jobs with a universal healthcare plan that forces everyone to get healtcare. If you get treatment at a hospital and don't have healthcare you are given a fine. Stop the gas tax for the summer resulting in 20 cents off a gallon.*
Obama: Grow Green collar jobs with a universal healthcare plan that forces parents to provide healthcare for their children. If they get treatment and don't have healtcare they are given a fine.
Mccain: Veto any bill with Earmarks to greatly stop government spending. (Earmarks are what senators use to get money by attaching something unreleated to a bill that is going to pass anyway. Like 8 million dollars for port building in Montana in a bill to approve funding to fly out war widows to retrieve soldiers bodies.) Stop subsidiaries that make the cost of food rise. Stop the gas tax for the summer resulting in 20 cents off a gallon.*
* Most economists claim this would have almost no effecet as Gas Companies would just raise their prices 15-20 cents.

Stem Cell Research
All three are for it
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Global Warming
All three believe in it and believe it should be stopped. Oddly McCain seems to be the most forcefull about it.
Any other issues?
