Who Would You Vote For?


Yesterday we talked about the Iowa Caucus and some of you commented on either disliking or liking certain candidates.

What Makes you Like or dislike a candidate? Their looks, how they talk, what your parents say?

What Should determine the candidate you like?

THE ISSUES!

Your Post

1.Choose the candidate that you currently think you like. Start your post with a picture of that candidate their name and why you like that candidate.

2. Now take a look at the Rock the Vote Website to read about why you should vote. Here they discuss the topics and how they affect young people. Pick 3 topics that your are passionate about and interest you. Write what your stance is.

3. For the 3 topics that you chose find how your candidate stands on those same issues and provide a brief summary. to get your candidates stance on the issue look at vote-smart.org

4. Has looking at the issues changed your candidate? If so why? Who will you look at now?
