Next question
Among the Democrat candidates, what are the differences in their positions on the issues. Just the issues that are important to the majority of Americans.
1. the economy
2. taxes
3. healthcare
4. immigration
5. education
6. moral issues
7. war
Unfortunately, Most of the Democrats are not talking about current issues. It seems like if its not universal Health Care or Ending the War in Iraq, we are hearing gender/race bashing, etc etc.
Wether they like to talk about it or not, their websites have an issues page.
Clinton: http://hillaryclinton.com/issues/
Obama: http://www.barackobama.com/issues/
2. Taxes. Most of the programs, etc that the Dems are trying to come up with lead to two things. Bigger Government, Higher Taxes.
3. Health Care. Hillary wants to make it mandatory for EVERYONE to get health care. Obama wants to bring down health care costs so that everyone can afford it.
4. Immigration. In the beginning of 2007, Jim Gilchrist, found of the Minuteman Project, interviewed all the candidates (Rep. and Dem.) and came to the conclusion that most Dems. don't believe our immigration problem is that big of a deal. Just for a side note, Gilchrist threw his support behind Mike Huckabee.
6. Moral Issues. Hillary is a member of the United Methodist Church and Obama is with the United Church of Christ. Regardless they don't support ending abortion or outlawing gay marriage.
7. War. It seems like they all want to get out of Iraq, but from what I've heard Clinton has the best plan to get out of Iraq "safely".
I think those are all that I'm qualified to answer.
