Foreign Policy I dont think we should listen to the UN, they dont run our country and they dont know whats in our best interest. We dont need there backing for anything.
Taxes I understand right now there is a range of 15%-35% tax brackets. I am not trying to change nor write a new policy, do i believe in flat taxes, probably not seeing how in our current situation ect.. it would probably cause more shit then its worth. I am just for the idea that we are all equal in the US and deserve to pay equally, get the chance for education equally, get everything equally without jumping over infringing on someones rights. That is a thin line.
My fav guy for the economy would be Joe Lieberman
Joes idea on the Economy I personally feel that we dont have a candidate worthy of being in office, not one candidate has mentioned the borders. This is the biggest issue in the US as far as im concerned.
Yes my professor said this, he did say that the deficit does NOT affect the economy. Of course he told me a huge spiel, basically saying that democrats use this as a platform against republicans because in politics republicans are military spenders and are known for making the deficit jump, whereas democrats are big on the economy and arent into military spending. He said its a big misconception and business and political science majors tend to realize this debt really doesnt have an impact. Seriously, my professor i had last semester is a genious, he knows his shit.
There are two topics in which i dont really talk about or care to have a conversation about. Death Penalty and Abortion. I think these two topics are worthless to talk about when there are bigger issues to tackle. I think these two topics are brought up to label politicians liberal, conservative, compassionate ect... I think there are bigger issues and i care not to look into these very much. <img src="/~stretch/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
Im ok with civil unions, but its not what gays want, they need there agenda met. This is yet another special interest that will label a candidate. Its funny how a candidate will tell us how he/she feels about gay marriage or abortion, yet is too scared to offend people or lose votes by touching on the borders. Close em, ship em out.
