Answer by Tara
My answer is .. it’s true, in my humble opinion – that Obama’s
stance on most of the issues, makes the most sense. I assume the documentation is absolute.
I wondered about an issue for “Children & Families”.
Clinton: It takes a village to raise a child
Obama: Teach sex-ed; listen to evangelicals
Clinton’s take was generic – and somewhat silly .. for a Presidential candidate on issues..
Obama’s take, on one part, is to listen to evangelicals … I wondered if this would conflict with the First Ammendment. ??
One big issue in the area where I live is Gun Law. I’ve heard a lot of controversy about it – but mainly scare tactics of what HC intentions are, concerning guns. If she took away guns, imposed heavy fees on owning guns – or if the ATF searched homes for guns .. many American would be turned into criminals because they would not surrender their arms – nor pay the hefty fees to own them. The saying could apply .. “if guns are outlawed, then only outlaws will have guns.
Gun Laws
Clinton: More restriction
ObamaL restrict guns; allow suing gun makers
McCain: More gun laws; more gun rights
I wondered what could make a law suit against a gun maker? .. they just make, and sell, the guns.
This grid of issues is very enlightening, and really narrows down everything in a simple form.
