Be An Informed Voter!

Sort of CF related. Regarding US healthcare, at least.

Here's a couple neat tests on the upcoming election:
<br><br>

<br><br>
http://www.politicalcompass.org/test
<br><br>
I'm interested to see everyone's results. And NO political debates allowed! That will get us nowhere fast. You can't change someone's mind when you attack them.
<br><br>
As for my results, they are somewhat closer to Obama than McCain, but I was suprised to see that I am more economically conservative than I previously thought.
<br><br>
I think most people fall in the middle like I do. I want lower taxes and smaller government, but I also believe that government can play a big role in ending poverty and helping people recieve healthcare. I can understand why so many people are undecided.

I took the first test..

My results were for McCain, which is exactly who i will be voting for..

He has so many qualities that i am looking for in our next president.

I have many reasons for my decision, but as you said we will not turn this into a debate..

I thought something worse than uninformed would be "misinformed"? <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif" border="0">

I get very little info feed over here, and its hard to say these days how much of it is accurate. But, since I'm way out here I guess I'll be missing out on Voting day. <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif" border="0">

wow, the questions at <a target=_blank class=ftalternatingbarlinklarge href="http://www.whoshouldyouvotefor.com/">http://www.whoshouldyouvotefor.com/</a> are absolutely ridiculous, and unless you've been living under a rock you know exactly which candidate your getting "points" towards.

i think my favorite is "The nominee should be a person of colour"
