ivydoorI've stumbled upon something that might help you make sense of all the candidates for the next presidential election. While I have a feeling it will come down to Clinton vs Guiliani, I can hold out hope that both of them will screw up tremendously and be forced out of the running.
Anyway, here's a handy-dandy chart that gives you an idea of their stance on all the major issues. By all means, do not take this as the gospel because politicians will change their tune according to who is paying the band. It also doesn't give you every little nuance of their positions, but it does a good job of sorting out things they've flipped back and forth on. A good guide to know what candidates need more research.
ETA: I wanted to add that this is just showing you what they've SAID, not how they've voted in the House or Senate or what have you, so YMMV.

Date: 2007-07-29 02:25 am (UTC)I remember back during the last election our campus CALPIRG charter did everything they could to go get people out there and voting whether it be at the polling place or through the mail. It was difficult trying to figure out what the politicians were actually for and against since, especially with Kerry, he kept changing his mind quite a bit.
