I've already made my decision for November, but of the things I've been most frustrated about during this election cycle is the sheer time burden of having to sift through sound bytes, spin and lies to ferret out where the presidential candidates actually stand on all of the issues.
Fortunately, OFRecord.com has created a handy table comparing the positions of the candidates head to head, complete with facts and figures on proposed tax burdens, position statements, and proposed policies and programs.
Best of all, it's compiled by Bespoke Information from CITED SOURCES. No or little spin, pure information.
Go. Read. Then VOTE.

It's one thing to know their platforms, it's another to consider the likelihood of any of their planks making it through Congress. No President makes law on his/her own, and it's equally important to find a candidate that one believes will be able to work with Congress to get something accomplished.
