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.

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.

It is so important to be informed and get out there and VOTE!
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%.
