Who You SHOULD Be Voting For

So because this blog has partially turned into a conversation between Zac and Timmy that everyone can silently ponder about, and partially because this election is the one that I have paid the most attention to in my young voter life, I thought I would share this with you.

My goal is not to pitch for one candidate over the other. To be honest, I don't know enough about one specific candidate to feel passionately enough to sway your strong opinions one way or another. On the radio this morning, they were interviewing a webpage creator who has made it easy to show which candidate cares the most about the issues that matter the most to YOU. On the first page you rank which issues matter the most to you. There is a 20-point scale. You can give as many points as you'd like to 14 different topics, as long as you don't exceed the allotted 20 points. As you continue through the site, it asks you more detailed questions about your chosen issues.

Check it out: http://glassbooth.org/ and take the quiz. It takes less than 10 minutes and I think it will be very interesting to see whether or not we have accurately decided who we are voting for. If you are undecided, will you vote for the candidate that the quiz thinks you should? Do you agree or disagree with this clever and unique way of helping Americans choose the next President?
