Preparing for Nov. 6, 2012

You have heard it over and over....get out and vote!
Well of course, I agree with this but how about being an informed voter.



This is an interesting test.
It shows results in a number of ways
It indicates that the majority of Americans haven't the slightest idea as to what is going on.
It's no wonder our politicians take such advantage of us.


It's astonishing that so many people got less than half right.
The results say that 80% of the (voting) public doesn't have a clue and that's pretty scary.
There are no tricks here - just a simple test to see if you are current on your information.

Presidential Primary Election February 28,2012

Arizona will soon be choosing their nominee for a republican candidate and I have watched many of the debates but truthfully many of the things that concern me are not usually discussed, like gun control. The following  web site can be of great help.

 Where  does your candidate stand  on some of the following issues:

Abortion

Budget;  Economy

Civil Rights

Corporations

Crime

Drugs

Education

Energy ;  Oil

Environment

Families ; Children

Foreign Policy

Free Trade

Government Reform

Gun Control

Health Care

Homeland_Security

Immigration

Infrastructure; Technology

Jobs

Principles; Values

Social Security

Tax Reform

War ; Peace

Welfare; Poverty


Be sure who you vote for shares your preferences and positions and then.......


 keep track how your congressmen/women are voting by joining Megavote

We the people..............do make a difference!

This is a great page Monica. Thank you for posting it. I shared the test on my facebook page. We have three grandchildren voting in their first Presidential election this year and one in his second and I want them to especially be informed. I am fairly confident they will each make 100%.
