What is the most important thing to you when you vote for President of the United States?
You can be specific or broad. If you want to mention side issues, go ahead, but I really doubt people vote for a President based on how much their wife makes, how many pantsuits they own or what their bowling score was. Is it a personality trait? Is it their record of getting things done? Is it their ability to Communicate? Is it their education, IQ? Is it their party? I could go on, but you get the point, let me know what is important to you.
I ask that you not answer if you do not vote.

Someone who follows the Constitution and Bill of Rights religiously, and would never do anything to alter them in any way. No stupid interpretations or useless laws that make no sense. It's written in black and white plain and simple. I also want my country to have the strongest military as well, you start messing with the security then were all screwed.
jointly as I trust you relating to human beings in general do no longer do sufficient examine till now vote casting, I ought to argue consisting of your good judgment that vote casting for the President is a few thing significant. they are each and each of a similar, and balanced via Congress. the only actual skill they have is govt judgements like beginning wars, and that they gained't try this if it skill political suicide. The electoral college comes to a decision who would be President. The nominees are desperate via super specific hobbies. till you take place to stay in a form of states that are unsure, you have little to no result. My information? George W. Bush is possibly the WORST public speaker of any present day President we ever had, and he nonetheless have been given elected two times. (He has gotten plenty greater helpful at speaking in the previous 8 years) and that i help him. no longer like it mattered. I voted. no longer like it mattered. The states I lived in have been already desperate via standard voters properly till now I have been given to the polls. we've not seen a actual chief in an prolonged time. they are all in the wallet of specific hobbies. Obama isn't that guy which will LEAD. could as properly have a teleprompter interpreting robotic for President. they could as properly merely come out and say "Vote for me. i glance greater helpful and youthful than the different guy" or despite! Frankly, it makes me ill. You youthful voters ought to pay greater interest on your close by elections. those are those that rather result you. To TIGER above: provide me some information on McCain's and Obama's vote casting data in the Senate. tell me what specific pastime communities advise what candidate. the innovations (the two emotional and opinionated) your are spouting has little to no longer something to do with being a President. tell me what candidate has govt journey dealing with a extensive group of folk and an incredible volume of money.
For myself, each election and each candidate is considered independent from the partisan party. I would tend to discount the viability of any extreme to the far far left or the far far right.
Generally I feel by the time it gets to the arena of the partison convention the field has been narrowed and in the end, whoever does win will not actually send the country down in flames. But this year we are approaching the DNC with a person in the front-running who has proven his unsuitability for the office of the President of the United States. He has proven this by his own judgment in a mentor; his loyalty to a racist minister who appears to be a lunatic with his crazy ideas about the HIV virus, the African Jesus (he was a Jew), the God Damn American and all the other things we've heard. This contender has a wife who is unsuitable, in my not so humble opinion. She is a loud mouth, a bully, a hateful racist and would be an unending embarrassment as First Lady using the front steps and living room of the White House as her platform for spewing evil.
I think that Hillary Clinton would work hard and most likely be a very good President, probably serving two terms. I think Bill would be an asset behind the scenes. I don't think either are perfect people, but I think their loyalties are 100% for America.
I believe John McCain to be an honorable man, and very capable with this good Congress of being our President. His age is a concern, but no sitting or retired President has died until well into their 80s or 90s since Lyndon Johnson, and he was retired....having suffered health problems since the 1950s; and dying about 1972, I think without looking that up. McCain's mother is out on the campaign trail in her 90s, his father was a patriot who did die young, but the indications are that John McCain is healthy. A Vice-Presidential choice is always important, as they say...."the Presidency is a heartbeat away". And JFK was young, if you remember, and I do.
I think I judge the one I will vote for the Presidency on their worth as a person, their loyalty to the country, their past experience and my confidence that they would act appropriately in an emergency.
Vote for Hillary now, or McCain in November Nobama
After watching America vote George W. Bush in office twice, who knows what they consider important in choosing a president? Now that one can see the facts and results of George W. and his failed policies...what do voters consider..it must be the political party they are affiliated with, they vote that way no matter who the party has as a nominee! Will America continue to vote for and elect more of the Bush-Clinton family dictatorship? When two families dominate the political arena and accupy the "White House", year after year, term after term......Americans are being controlled, manipulated through various means of deception, distortion and trickery! Every year, the Democrats and Republicans start out with a large-field of candidates with great idea's, but in the end, it is always a Bush or Clinton that gets elected and America ends up with 8 years of more of the same! Where the bigger problem lies is government under these two families has America in a pickle. Each term we are not better off....the National debt is larger...America keeps bleeding blood and treasure...we have one-sided trade agreements that are anti-American worker...our borders have allowed an invasion of illegal people entering in and out of this nation at will...the U. S. Congress cannot pass legislation to address this issue or Social Security which is going broke in the near future...health care is still not within reach of many Americans, but socialized medicine may not be a good answer to address it without actually ruining what good is in place at this time...our military is and has been misused once again...not in war, but in occupations, where there is no-clear cut chance of achieving victory and our troops are just sitting ducks in a live shooting gallery! Iraq was nothing short of a big, distorted lie and mistake and like Vietnam it shall be remembered as that by those that judge history of our nation in future years and generations! I vote, but I get sick and tired of not having a real choice to pick from instaed of having just what Big-Business want on the ballot! This voting for the lesser of two-evils is getting old! America needs some kind of real change for the better, not more of the same as it has got us nowhere, just deeper in debt! George W. Bush has added over 4 trillion more dollars to the national debt...so much for his conserving money, careful spending of tax-payer dollars? He has threw away more dollars in an unnecessary war in Iraq, than what all the others did, put together in their terms in office! Conservative...what is conservative about President Bush...his willingness to admit the truth about anything on any subject? When George W. Bush wins two terms, I am not sure what they voted him in on concerning his abilities to lead this nation. The truth is elections in America today, must have some kind of method to the madness as we keep electing inept government, that has everybody's best interests at heart, except the American citizens who they supposedly serve! Anymore I wish I knew what was most important as there are so many important issues being ignored within this nation, America's demise cannot be far off on the horizon unless real change comes and real change for the better comes soon!
