What are the divisive political issues?
Edited on Thu Sep-07-06 07:22 AM by jody
I’ve used the web site On The Issues among others as a quick reference for political candidates’ views on various issues.

Some issues; e.g. abortion, gun control, religion, GLBT; polarize voters and could be crucial in close elections.

On The Issues gives candidate positions separately on abortion and gun control but not religion and GLBT, see list below.

Does anyone know of a site that reports candidates’ positions on the top five or six divisive issues that could win or lose the next presidential election or gain or lose control of congress for the Democratic Party?

ON THE ISSUES LIST
Abortion
Budget & Economy
Civil Rights
Corporations
Crime
Drugs
Education
Energy & Oil
Environment
Families & Children
Foreign Policy
Free Trade Government Reform
Gun Control
Health Care
Homeland Security
Immigration
Infrastructure & Technology
Jobs
Principles & Values
Social Security
Tax Reform
War & Peace
Welfare & Poverty
