    ABORTION- It is a human beings choice whether or not to carry a fetus to term.
    AFFIRMATIVE ACTION- Unbelievably out-dated.
    BUDGET & TAXES- Taxes should be based on income, the top 10% of the nations wealth should be paying over 25% of the nations taxes, the bottom 10% should be paying 0.5 - 1%.
    DRUGS/CRIME/DEATH PENALTY- Marijuana and naturally occurring drugs such as mushrooms, peyote, mescaline should be legalized, however I believe that drugs such as cocaine, heroin, meth, etc. should remain illegal due to the impact these drugs have on society. MDMA should be legal as a prescribed drug only.
    The entire prison system needs to be re-done, drug offenders need help beating addiction, they don't need to be locked up.The death penalty should be applied to many more types of violent crime.
    EDUCATION- College needs to be more accessible to financially challenged kids.
    ENVIRONMENT- I do believe that we need to start doing whatever we can to go "GREEN" but I do not believe that humans are the cause of global warming, I believe that we are currently in the middle of a natural climate change that happens to the earth quite often.
    RIGHT TO DIE- Every being should have tis basic right.
    FOREIGN RELATIONS-I think we should remove ourselves completely for th UN, and approach our perceived enemy as an enemy nothing more nothing less.
    GAY RIGHTS- Homosexuals should be protected under our constitution not because they are gay, because the are Americans.
    GUNS- People convicted of violent crimes should have these right suspended, everyone else should have this right to bear arms.
    HEALTH CARE- We need to kill the HMO while re-vamping the PPO, establish more clear and concurrent guidelines for treatment, including experimental treatments.
    IMMIGRATION- Plain and simple.. If you are a illegally in this country, you are a criminal, and should be treated as such. We need to keep Mexico as a close ally so we can offer advice on how to build their economy so Mexicans would rather stay in Mexico.
    LABOR UNIONS- Unions are extremely out-dated, they were created to give workers safe and healthy working environments, when such things were a rarity, these days they are normal.
    VETERANS- They need to be taken care of properly! I think it is absolutely ridiculous that most homeless people are veterans. These men and women are the reason we have such great opportunities here in America!

    I'm putting this in no particular order because I don't feel I can rank their importance in a cut-and-dry manner.

    ABORTION
    Abortion should be available for reasons of medical necessity, hands down. As for trimesters, I'm not familiar enough to make a clear judgement on this. I'll say this: before any brainwaves are present, it should be available across the board. Once any neural activity is present it should be allowed as a matter of medical necessity, a very poor financial situation, or inevitable severe illness in the child. I don't support anybody doing this as a means of casual birth control. If you can support it, and it's healthy, then you should!
    As for partial-birth abortions, doing them in the last month or two; that's just sick. I don't support partial birth/really late term, that's outright murder IMO.

    AFFIRMATIVE ACTION
    I support an affirmative action not based on race, but on need. I think if a kid shows superb academic ability and comes from a poor neighborhood, regardless of his/her race, they should get some special funding.
    I do not support special consideration based on race. If a black kid shows exceptional academic ability, he will get the scholarship he deserves.

    BUDGET & TAXES
    Ohhhhhh that's a complicated one! Too vast to cover in one post really. But I support elimination or bare-minimum application of the income tax. Taxes need to be minimalized by cutting out many of the government's major wasting of money. I do, however, support a moderate degree of taxation for a socialized medical system along side the private sector, as well as educational funding.

    CAMPAIGN & POLITICAL REFORM
    I say implement an outright ban on donations from corporations. Now this could still be difficult because of individuals making large donations handed over to them by corporations.
    So.... assuming we can't figure out a way around that, put very short caps on corporate donations.

    Actually, I'm just gonna say it, I don't know how the hell we can get around this problem. There's always a way to weasle around the system and make sure corporations get special policy consideration. Damned if I know how to fix it. Maybe because it's late and I'm half asleep right now...

    CRIME
    Extremely strong penalties for gun crimes, rape, murder, million-dollar white-collar crimes... I'm sure I'll think of more later.
    Overal, I'm not for this primitive eye-for-an-eye notion of justice by revenge. I would take a utilitarian approach that focuses on harm-reduction (for society)

    DEATH PENALTY
    I don't particularily care for the death penalty, I don't think it's an effective deterrent, but unforuntately I think there's times it's called for. I would reserve it for the real bad sicko's, the Ted Bundy's and John Wayne Gaisy's of the world.
    In fact, I think I'd reserve it for rape/murder combo's and multiple murders above a pre-determined number. Otherwise murderers would get typical life-sentences.


    DRUGS
    End this rediculous war on drugs and start treating it as a public health issue. Do away with the DEA and cut off all funding to anti-drug groups like DARE who only discourage drug use by lies and scare tactics, rather than educating the public with real facts.
    Personal use and small amounts of any substance should be decriminalized. Cannabis and hallucinogens should be legalized, regulated, and taxed; their tax-profits put into rehabilitation centers.
    Production and sale of any other controlled substance carry's harsh penalties, long prison sentences. This will include alcohol.
    Acohol and tobacco, however, will be legal to produce in small quantities. Sale, however, is still illegal.
    Addicts who are found to have committed a crime to feed their habbit, or committing assult/murder because of a drug-induced violent state, will be forced into a rehabilitation center. Even after their addiction is past, they will remain a while longer and learn healthier ways of living; providing programs such as yoga, tai chi, health and fitness, and meditation.



    EDUCATION
    Education should recieve more funding for smaller classroom sizes and up-to-date textbooks and equipment. Teachers in the US should be getting paid considerably more, relatively on-par with Canadian teacher's wages. ($36,000-$60,000 a year depending on experience).
    Private schools are of course allowed, but with no government funding.

    ENVIRONMENT
    Forming a nation and people that live in harmony with nature should be a top priority. I strongly believe this is essential to mental and physicall health/well-being.

    I support the creation of mass and intricate transportation systems such as skytrains that run on clean, all-electric energy, provided to the public at minimal cost per ride.

    We should aim to have all-electric cars on the road in a reasonable time period. Companies like Tesla motors have finally invented electric cars that are as (and more) powerful as any combustion engine. The myth that we need bio-diesel and hydrogen are perpetuated to keep oil companies in business. I actually do support keeping them in business, because it is a huge industry after all, but their efforts will have to be transferred to electric power stations, vehicular and battery production, and management of other transportation models.

    Aircraft should run off hydrogen fuel, as it's the only non-polluting fuel I'm aware of that would have sufficient power to fly jumbo-jets.

    Industrial emissions need to be massively cut, with the eventual goal of zero emmisions nation-wide.

    Power grids should be largely based on existing clean technologies like hydro power wherever available. The rest will provided by micro-hydro, tidal energy, and wind. Wind power, while initially expensive, will be more economically sound in the long run since no refueling will be necessary.

    Produciton of new houses will mandage energy-efficient models, with solar-panneled roofs and/or geothermal heating systems, taking huge strain off the public power grid.


    EUTHANASIA ("Right-to-Die")
    I believe that anybody living in a terminally ill state, in constant pain and suffering, should have the right to end their own life by means of physician-assisted suicide. Methods like morphine overdose would be preferrable. If they're going to die anyway, why should they be forced to live out the last few months in agony? Value of life should be based on quality of life, not just the fact that you're alive. It's your life, it's your right to choose.

    FOREIGN RELATIONS
    No more policing the world.
    Humanitarian efforts will remain at relatively the same level.
    Businesses will be limmited in how much of their workforce can be from other nations. A certain percentage, I'll say 70%, must be American (or the same nationality as the company's owners).


    FIRST AMENDMENT, FREE SPEECH & THE INTERNET
    What can I say? I'm all for it.

    GAY RIGHTS
    I believe gays should have the right to be married if they so choose. The "sanctity of marrage" is bullshit, Christianity does not have a monopoly on this union and should not dictate it's principles. Buddhists, Atheists, Hindu's can all get married after all. And really, some speak fearfully of destroying the "sanctity"; well, how exactly is two men or women getting married going to affect your marrage?
    Sodomy in a consentual context should be 100% legal. Making a sexual practice illegal on Christian principles in unconstitutional, it's none of the states business and big brother can stay out of the bedroom.

    GUNS
    Handguns, shotguns, and rifles should be completely legal. Assault weapons should not, they're unessecary IMO.
    I support a 3 day waiting period for background checks, and thus those with a violent criminal record or mental illness will be barred from owning a firearm.
    I also support allowing the general public to carry firearms on their person. I don't support making the general public defenseless against victimizers and criminals. If you're going to pull a gun and rob a store, you might think twice knowing half the customers are carrying.

    HEALTH CARE
    I support a government-funded, socialized healthcare system like we have here in Canada. But, I'm 100% against this federal ban we have on privitized healthcare. private healthcare should be available to anybody who can afford it, thus getting the wealthy out of the line in the free system so the low-income can get in faster.
    I also support government-funded fitness, nutritional advising, yoga, tai chi, and meditation programs provided at minimal cost, no cost to those who couldn't afford it. An ounce of prevention is worth 100 pounds of treatment. I think the general public should enjoy a healthier lifestyle.

    IMMIGRATION
    If you come here illegally, skipping legal proceedure, you're booted the frick out right away. If you keep coming back ilegally, you're going to prison.
    Immigrants with valuable skills, such as tradesmen, doctors, pharmacists, high-education sorts should have top priority. Nobody with a criminal record should be allowed in.


    INTERNATIONAL TRADE
    We should demand suppliers have the same health and safety checks on their products that we do. Otherwise the rest is outlined in foreign relations.

    LABOR UNIONS, JOBS & BUSINESS
    Fully in support of labor unions. I not support the government's ability to force a labor union to end a strike by arbitrarily declaring them an "essential service". I don't know about the states, but here in BC our government has done this to 7 major unions after they striked against massive pay cuts. One such union was the nurses union; my mother is a nurse, she works her ass off and does not deserve a 15% pay cut, especially after those assholes voted themselves a raise shortly after.
    Business practice is outlined in foreign relations.

    MILITARY, WAR & VETERANS
    Military should be shrunk to a considerably smaller size, but one sufficient enough to occupy or defend against any nation. I support missile defense systems and homeland defense forces. The army should be made into a much smaller, elite fighting force. One that has the best, latest-and-greatest equipment and highest degree of training on-par with special forces; just much much smaller.
    Foreign invasions and wars should be based on a real, direct threat to the united states or her allies; usually based on that nation directly attacking us. No more world police, military action will be defensive.
    The navy is way larger than it needs to be, and should be cut.
    An anti-missile defense system and anti-nuclear defense system, that is perfected and utterly covered, should be installed. Then all land-based nuclear arms should be scrapped (which will save a pretty penny). Trident submarines, which make up about 50% of the US's nuclear arsenal (last I heard) will remain in very small numbers, ready to carry out the unthinkable should things come to that.

    BUDGET & TAXES
    drastically scale down the size of government and eliminate IRS and income tax

    CAMPAIGN & POLITICAL REFORM
    no regulations, everybody should be able to campaign how they want, its a free country. Plus lots of campaign finance reform can actually hurt smaller candidates
    CRIME, DEATH PENALTY & DRUGS
    Leave it up to the states, not a Federal Issue(i.e., No Federal drug laws), pretty much the same for the death penalty even though i disagree with it

    EDUCATION
    Should not be funded by federal gov't, let the states pay for their schools

    ENVIRONMENT
    government should not regulate it, going green is so popular right now that if left to the private sector companies will most likely do everything they can do be environmentally friendly

    EUTHANASIA ("Right-to-Die")

    LABOR UNIONS, JOBS & BUSINESS
    any group has the right to unionize

    Hey, why don't we have our own cannabis dot.com kangaroo presidential election? Vote for you top three candidates based on their personal manifesto. Oh I know it'd just turn into a popularity contest wouldn't it ... I predict if we had one though Rebgirl would become the first ever woman cannabis dot.com mock president, then P4B would get his lawyers in to transfer the vote to his one man party.

    In no order of importance.

    ABORTION - Pro choice and state right

    AFFIRMATIVE ACTION - Eliminate it. Let test scores and job performance determine the better person. Lets stop passing on hiring the better qualified Doctor, only to hire those less qualified just because someone had to meet X quota of whatever reason sex,religion,race,etc.

    BUDGET & TAXES - Eliminate all tax on earned income regardless of rich or poor.

    CAMPAIGN & POLITICAL REFORM - eliminate all the leaps and bounds a 3rd party candidate has to go trough to make it on a ballot. Break this co-sponsored 2 party system we got stuck up on. Also introduce term limits on all elected positions. I believe we should drop out of the UN and kick them off American soil. No reason why people we did not elect into power should have any say in our nations affairs.

    CRIME, DEATH PENALTY & DRUGS - Eliminate the war on drugs. Re-legalizing will cut out allot of our crime and lower the prison population. Do away with the death sentence. Instead place those who would be on death row together in general pop and let them kill each other for free.

    EDUCATION - remove standardized testing and allow school districts to go back to teaching. I'm a believer that education in this country would improve greatly if we privatize this sector.

    ENVIRONMENT - remove restrictions that ban new nuclear reactors from being built. All of ours are old and outdated. Technology has improved in this field that it is now safer and more efficient then ever before. Also push for renewable sources like wind ,air and water/hydrogen. We should try to distance ourselves from the current oil/coal deal we got going now.

    EUTHANASIA ("Right-to-Die") - pro choice and state right

    FOREIGN RELATIONS - open dialog and trade to all nations and not just people we think our our friends.

    GAY RIGHTS - state right

    GUNS - Pro 2nd amendment as long as they do not pose a danger to society. Setup a court system and a jury pool of both doctors and non medical personal. If someone is not competent to own a firearm, that decision should come from a jury of his/her peers, not government deciding who can and can not.

    HEALTH CARE - Do not mandate it. Government run health care would tank the medical field. Instead should crack down on frivolous lawsuits and doctors who repeatedly make mistakes. Offer low or no interest rate loans to doctors who would agree to work low income clinics or VA's for a specified number of years after medical school. I believe this is what we do now for teachers.

    IMMIGRATION - Build a real wall. One made of stone, brick and, mortar. Fence's can be easily cut through with wire cutters. A solid wall will provide more efficiency. Also eliminate "birth right citizenship".

    INTERNATIONAL TRADE - Free trade for all nations! Adjust global tariffs to allow American products have a better chance at competition. Let us tax imports at the same rate those nations tax ours. I believe China charges allot more for US imports then US charges China for their imports. Stop selling weapons to the world, they just seem to end up in the hand of our enemies anyways.

    MILITARY, WAR & VETERANS - Close up shop to some 600+ US military installations on foreign soil. No reason why we still defend places like Japan,and definitely no reason why Americans should be paying for it as well. ~60% of our Annual budget goes into the pentagon. End not just war but our policing presents on the world. Stop going to war just because someone wont play by America's rules.

    SOCIAL SECURITY & SENIORS - Allow people to opt out of social security. We should be able to invest it instead. Seniors (and everyone else) be able to buy prescriptions from foregone countries. People in Canada are not dropping dead any faster from the same medications we have here. Medical marijuana maybe able to replace many prescriptions at a fraction of the cost.

    Nothing makes me sadder then seeing some 65+ year old working at a McDonald's so they can afford the heating bill. Eliminate all taxes on the social security check and give those who are 65+ tax exempt status on minor non luxury purchases. Government currently wastes allot and if we can practice some lean management tactics we can then pass on what we save to help seniors who really need it.

    ABORTION: I believe this is a matter that should be the choice of the mother and the father of the child. However I do believe there should be some regulation on how many times one can get an abortion. What bothers me the most is when abortions are used as a form of birth control to irresponsible women/men. Yes I am throwing men in there because they??re just as responsible when it comes to using protection.
    AFFIRMATIVE ACTION: I don??t agree with this and it isn??t working, and it??s also being abused.
    BUDGET & TAXES: I say to begin with we should stop spending as much as we do over seas. Cut a lot of the programs that have no been working like the War on Drugs, and the No Child Left Behind.
    CAMPAIGN & POLITICAL REFORM: ??TV makes enough money on what these people do and the news of the day, they should be required to give equal time to ALL candidates.? I agree with P4B here. I also believe that special interest groups should be forbidden to associate with politicians who are campaigning.
    CRIME, DEATH PENALTY & DRUGS: I say if you do the crime you do the time. You know it??s against the law when you committed the crime therefore you should be held 100% responsible. I am not for the Death Penalty I believe it makes the supporters just as guilty as the defendant. Drugs in my opinion are not the problem. The problem is the War on Drugs.
    EDUCATION: Give all control back over to the parents and the communities of the schools.
    ENVIRONMENT: Even though I am not a believer in this whole global warming is our fault idea. I still believe it is our responsibility to take care of a planet that has been so giving to us.
    EUTHANASIA: If you want to die, then that??s your choice.

    FOREIGN RELATIONS:Mind our own business and worry about our own country??s health.
    FIRST AMENDMENT, FREE SPEECH & THE
    INTERNET: Just as it says! The internet should not be regulated at all.
    GAY RIGHTS: I am all for it. Just because I don??t agree with their lifestyle they??re still citizens of American and deserve the same rights as a heterosexual.
    GUNS: Everyone should own one! =) If you have been convicted of a violent crime then you forfeit the right to carry any kind of weapon until you have proven to the community you live in you can be trusted with a weapon.
    HEALTH CARE: I don??t think a free system is the answer. Just because the Government pretty much destroys whatever they touch. I believe a sound and strong economy combined with competitive health care system is a great start towards affordable health care.
    IMMIGRATION: It??s against the law and needs to be dealt with. I do not believe we should be responsible for paying for millions of illegal??s who enter this country and abuse the welfare state.
    INTERNATIONAL TRADE: I believe we should trade with everyone. I would also like to see a lot tighter security in our ports.
    LABOR UNIONS, JOBS & BUSINESS: I believe Labor Unions are a good thing when they??re 100% behind the people they represent, and have deep roots into this country??s history. We need more jobs in this country that??s for sure. Too many corporations are heading over seas and still making most of their money off the country they left. I think there should be some harsh penalties on corporations who bail just for cheaper labor, and better tax breaks. Crack down on companies who take advantage of illegal labor.
    MILITARY, WAR & VETERANS: I believe in a strong military at home. I think it is a necessity to have in order to keep our country free and safe. I do not believe that the military or its weapons should ever under no circumstances be used against the citizens they protect. War should always be the last option on the table. We should never do any kind of pre-emptive striking. We should talk and negotiate with all countries. Never go to war on suspicion. I believe the Veterans are neglected and deserve the best help and support we can provide for them.
    SOCIAL SECURITY & SENIORS: We need to be able to take care of the people who took care of us. Younger people should be able to opt out of paying Social Security and choose whatever they would like to invest in for their retirement.
