DNC + RNC = "Change"

Upon the conclusion of last nights Republican Convention and last weeks Democratic Convention the message seemed to echo "change" across the board. Obama stated it some 15 times in his speech, and McCain referred to it 10 times as well. If we dig deeper into that statement from them are they only referring to "change" on the top issues...
•Afghanistan •Energy •Health Care •Immigration •Iran •Iraq •Taxes
...or all the issues!

Certain issues are going to strike different chords with each of us, and many will follow the crowd simply because it is easy to do. Sad I know, but yes it's true. My wish for you would be to educate yourself about these candidates beyond the negative emails in circulation, or the attacking commercials aired, and of course the media bias's. So here are a few sites that help address the issues (always considering the source):

CNN
Washington Post
NY Times
Vote Smart
website:2 Decide

And if you really want to get specific about all the issues, check out each candidate individually; McCain,Palin,Obama, and Biden.

Voting is a right, an individual right at which you (yes, you alone) arrive at your decision in a small voting booth somewhere in America all by yourself. Think about how amazing that is...that's America people!
