Who Should You Vote for in the Forthcoming Presidential Election?

I, like some Americans, am completely stuck. At this point I can't declare my allegiance with either political party, because it seems there are so many good points made on both sides. My email inbox is literally filled on a daily basis with forwarded emails from friends trying to coerce me to choose either Democrat or Republican- Obama or McCain. I read almost every one of those emails in an attempt to decide my vote. However, last night I received one such email that added a little humor to this decision-making process. Can't decide for yourself? You should try it out, too! It's good for a laugh, because of the funny graphics, and it also touches on some of the most important issues that we as Americans face in these United States. Plus, it's on the ABC News website. Can't go wrong there, right?

Have a strong opinion about the War in Iraq? Thing Gay Marriage should be legal? Are you genuinely concerned about the effects of Global Warming? It covers them all. The quiz categorizes topics with two statements from each candidate on that topic in this order:

1. The Economy
2. The war in Iraq
3. Health Care
4. Immigration
5. Abortion
6. Gay Marriage
7. Global Warming
8. Judges and the Courts

The quiz ends on each candidate's statement about what it means to be the Commander-in-Chief of the United States. Of course, throughout the quiz, it doesn't say which candidate said which statement until the end, where it compares them side-by-side. This adds to the fun of the whole thing, in my opinion. I think the quiz could be a very valuable tool to first-time voters, especially the younger generations, who don't honestly know where each candidate stands on the issues that mean the most to them. Now more than ever we need to let our voices be heard, and to vote is a powerful thing. Every vote counts, and helps to shape America's future.
