I love charts like this that compare the candidates on issues that matter. However, it leaves out the write-in candidates. My favorite presidential contender is “Average Joe” Schriner followed by Sam Brownback, Ron Paul and John McCain.

Please elect any illegal Mexican in USA for President 2008. It will help all legal USA citizens to assimulate into Mexico and Mexican culture sooner rather than later. Why wait for another generation to go by for USA to become Mexico. Make it happen in 2008!

Vote Jose Illegal in 2008

Charts like this are cool, but because they literally have to “box” candidates in, they can be misleading. Just glancing through, for example, they list McCain as an “X” on “Energy and Oil: Kyoto” – which misses the fact that he’s been pushing for caps on carbon emissions for a few years. His stand doesn’t go as far as Kyoto, but neither do any of the current Democratic bills in Congress. Not sure if there are other nuances missing, but wouldn’t take this chart to heart.

Advocates ensuring access to high-quality early childhood education programs and child care opportunities, recruit well-qualified and reward expert, accomplished teachers. Make science and math education a national priority. Reduce the high school dropout rate and empower parents to raise healthy and successful children by taking a greater role in their child's education at home and at school.
