So, who to vote for this 2008 election???
Since Hilary and Guiliani are at the top of the polls for the democrats and republicans, here are their platforms on the top issues:
Hilary’s Platform:
She favors abortion, gay marriage, and immigrant’s rights.  She supports solving global warming, health care reform, Iraq troop withdrawal, and stem cell research.  She favors Iraq negotiations.
Guiliani’s Platform:
Supports abortion.  Opposes gay marriage, but doesn’t want to ban the practice.  Not sure about human involvement in global warming, expand research.  Health care driven by market expansion, not universal coverage.  Open to conferring legal status to immigrants.  Doubts Iraq negotiations.  Supports troop increase and stem cell research.
It’s hard to choose, these issues are controversial and who says they will follow through with their promises?
