It can be difficult, especially when people are not fans of politics. Issues voters can really have a hard time deciding at times because the media can be quite biased when it comes to information about candidates. Most newspapers and television shows will focus on only what many people consider positive aspects of candidates.
Even the papers and programs that cover controversial and perhaps negative topics can be biased.
However, the media can also help at times. This is especially true when it comes to the Internet. It is full of information about the presidential candidates. For people who are not all that interested in politics but have ideals, it is good to learn what candidates support. It is also important to learn a bit about some of the history of the candidates.
However, even after learning these things, decisions can be difficult. Thanks to the Internet, there are many different Presidential Selectors online. They can be used to help determine which candidate is the best candidate to support.
ABC News's Match-o-Matic
This selector focuses on a few main issues important to voters. There is no way to rank the importance of the issue. There are also no links to help understand the issue. The fun part about this selector is watching the animated bobble head candidates.
USA Today's Candidate Match Game
This selector is almost identical to ABC's selector. There is still no way to rank the importance of issues. The nice part about this is that the ideal candidates shown rise the amount they match with the opinion inputted about the issues.
WQAD's Select a Candidate Quiz
This selector has only 11 questions. They are not as deep as some of the other questions and issues featured on other selectors. However, on this selector, there is a way to rate the importance of the issue.
