Know Your Stuff: The Mother Lode

There is a simple to use online source of hard facts about each candidate, where you can find out how each voted on every pertinent issue in this campaign, as well as the names of everyone who has endorsed him and how interest groups have rated his performance-for instance, the Childrens Defense Fund has given Obama a 100 percent rating twice, and John McCain a high of 22, and most recently a 10. And the Campaign for America’s future, dedicated to sustainable energy development, gave John McCain a 17, and Barack Obama 100.

If you’re not familiar with Project VoteSmart, please bookmark these pages: http://www.votesmart.org/issue_rating_category.php?category=2&go.x=8&go.y=13&can_id=9490&type=category AND http://www.votesmart.org/issue_rating_category.php?category=2&go.x=8&go.y=14&can_id=53270&type=category.
With this tool you can provide objective information for anyone curious about each candidate’s proven positions on the critical issues the next President will confront.
