We should place "why" as well. McCain 77% Obama 46% Nader 38% I oppose setting a withdrawal timetable for US troops to leave Iraq I support the increase in US troop levels in Iraq which has been ongoing throughout 2007 I am indifferent on the US having a long-term presence in Iraq I strongly support unrestricted free trade I strongly oppose an increase in the federal minimum wage I oppose legislation restricting employers from interfering with union votes I strongly oppose government subsidies to farmers I support normal diplomatic and trade relations with China I oppose universal health care which provides access to health care regardless of ability to pay. I oppose increased government spending on health care. I strongly support privatizing social security through personal Social Security accounts I support an increase in taxes for the wealthiest Americans I strongly support tax cuts for middle-class families I strongly support a flat tax system across income levels I support a Constitutional amendment that would require Congress and the President to balance the budget each year I support eliminating taxes on estates after an individual's death I oppose the elimination of the marriage penalty which more greatly taxes couples with similar incomes I support the elimination of the Alternative Minimum Tax I strongly support the reduction of taxes on capital gains
Gee whiz, why oh why would an unbiased source list Ralphie and not the libertarian and other independent options? Forever why? I refuse to take this (not that any of you care). I just think the point is to bump up Ralphie votes, a la the disaster of 2000.
Wow an online Nader push poll in the guise of the "candidate calculator" that's been posted 100's of times. COOL BEANS
Yeah, I like their candidate list, with everyone else in inactive grey and a red "New!" next to Ralph's name. LOL.
Sorry, but I have a problem with people thinking any vote is a wasted vote. I live in Williamson County...possibly the reddest of red counties in Texas. That doesn't meant I should sit at home on election day. IMO, if you don't vote, do not have the right to complain. BTW, I was 84% with Obama, 79% with Nader, and 50% with McCain.
here's their explanation: Waiting on Barr We have been getting a lot of feedback the last couple weeks, asking to see Libertarian candidate Bob Barr added to the site, and we couldn’t agree more. The Glassbooth crack research team has done extensive research on Mr. Barr in an effor to add him to the site. We are missing about 14 of Mr. Barr’s positions, and while the Barr campaign offered help to close this gap, they have not provided in weeks. If you would like to see Mr. Barr on the site, please contact his campaign directly here and urge them to help.
Obama: 78% Nader: 78% McCain: 44% Was surprised to discover that Obama does not fully endorse gay marriage.
Don't apologize to me. I was encouraging pirc1 to vote for Nader, since it wouldn't matter. Btw, I got an interesting result: Obama: 67% McCain: 65% Nader: 64% (1) So far, everyone seems to have McCain first or last, but I have him in the middle. (2) It seems I'll be pretty amenable to whoever wins, according to this poll.
