The Presidential Elections 2008- a tutorial?

I thought maybe we could use this post as a place where we could look up candiates platforms in the presidential election and have at hand information for those that don't have time to do their own research (better to help others make an informed decision, I think.)

so, this is what I have so far

Barack Obama's blueprint for change

Hilary Clinton issues

John Edwards for President

Bill Richardson change and experience

John McCain for President

Mitt Romney Strategy for a stronger america

Fred Thompson Security Unity Prosperity

Rudy Giuliani 12 commitments

Washington Post the 2008 Frontrunners

feel free to add any independents/other candidates or any info you find about the top 8.

Here's the NYT Candidates page. They also have a lot of resources about when the primaries are, how they work, etc etc.

NYT Candidates

ETA: You have to also keep in mind the political leanings of the palce you're getting info. WashPost is a right-wing paper and company (and I work for them!), and the Times is known to be elft of center. OnTV news it's really swayed. I watched a few political experts talk about how Obama is the most pro-abortion candidate ever and wants to raise taxes.

this is why I watch BBCWorldNews. it seems to be the most straightforward of any news cast.
