Decided or Undecided?

It's probably close to impossible for anyone to find a candidate they agree with 100% on every issue. So I guess the key is to decide what matters most to you and pick which candidates feel the way you do on your top issue, then go from there. If you agree with someone on your top issue but are polar opposites on your number two issue, that's probably not your candidate. Believe it or not I think it's a good thing that there are such a large number of candidates in both parties. Even if someone is a total long-shot without a prayer of winning the nomination, each of them has something a little bit different to bring to the table. Since politicians live and die by polls and since the media loves to report on every poll ever taken someone who may not win may still get an important issue to the forefront if it gets enough attention from the voters. I know I want to vote for someone who isn't going to make me feel "threatened" that if I don't vote for him I'll likely die in a terror attack. Annie

I am not sure of who I think would be a good President next year. However, I do know that I am not supporting Hillary Clinton as I don't think that she is ready to accept that kind of responsibility or that she will do what is best for the country. I wasn't fond of her husband as a President and I can't see her doing anything different. I feel that we usually do accept candidates that fall short of our expectations as it seems that they never are exactly what we want in all aspects.

I am at a loss on this one as well. These canidates are really going to have to sell themselves to me to get my vote. I was going to vote for Hilary Clinton, but she is anti-video games, she wants to put so many restrictions on video games that there will not be any great ones out there anymore if she becomes president. I do not know if I want to vote for Obama because of his beliefs. I am at a loss on this.

I am probably in the same boat that you are in the fact that I am totally undecided. I had my pre-conceived notions, but I never really set my sights on one candidate. More and more though, as I seem to get more information, I find myself finding flaws in every significant candidate. I might find something I can rally around with a candidate, and then see something that makes me think twice. I really think that it's hard to accept a candidate that falls short, but at the same time I think that it makes sense to prioritize and find out what is the most important to us in terms of agenda and/or policies. It's difficult to find one candidate that fully embodies everything that we want, it's amatter of getting the important stuff taken care of.

It's hard to find two people who have the same opinion about everything, so it's going to be equally hard to find a Presidential candidate who shares your opinion on everything. Some of them may be willing to *say* they share your opinion, but they're all trying to get votes, ya know. ;-) However, if you don't vote (paraphrasing Sebastian Bach of Skid Row), it's like an automatic vote for the guy who wins.

The only way I can sort them out is to eliminate the people I don't want, one by one. That should eventually leave me with the person I should vote for. The problem is that it is so easy to keep eliminating candidates so that you end up with zilch to vote for. Since I am not mainstream, the person I will end up supporting will likely be an unknown. So be it. I might be the only one voting for my choice, but I have to go with the person I think best supports my values, win or lose. The mainstream candidates are too compromising and mostly wishy-washy and blow in which ever direction will get the most votes. I don't even know anymore if the "new" president will matter all that much. Congress will still but fiddle-fudding around and getting less done then ever. They will use the excuse that it will take a year or two to get in sync with the new President. More political hogwash, which is why we never get a final answer to anything in government. All we get is a law, then a million exceptions negating that law according to who you are, like a minority or special interest type person. For all I know, Castro might get elected...lol.

For me there has always seemed to be a conflict, with either party promoting issues important to me. I feel you need to look long term as to how you think they will perform and also, check their position to date...have they lied? Have they backed down on an election promise? Have they changed course on an election issue. It's really all about trust and it doesn't seem to matter what country you're in, trust is sadly lacking. Is it the politicians running our countries or the big corporations? Money talks.

Decided or undecided it depend aupon subject.And we can decided yes or no.

I'm not a very political person. I follow the candidates a little but probably not enough. My first instinct though, is that I would love to see history made with the 1st female president. Most already felt that she pretty much ran things when her husband was in office so why not have her do it from up front.

We most choose the candidates for its own account and try to find maximum on it to see if he deserves your vote.
