On the Issues: A Crash Course in Politics

By Candy

It’s ok if you’re not “into politics” as much as you would like to be – a lot of people aren’t.The lack of the average person’s knowledge of current events in the world of politics stems less from straight-up ignorance and more from some brainiac with horn-rimmed glasses knocking them for not seeing ‘last night’s debate on current issues’ in a smug, self-righteous manner. The world of politics should not be an exclusive club for elitists.

Would you like to be more politically-savvy without being criticized by every Tom, Dick and Jane with a copy of the Wall Street Journal under their arm?

On The Issues provides “non-partisan information for voters in the Presidential election, so that votes can be based on issues rather than on personalities and popularity.” To further widen your knowledge on the presidential candidates you can even take the 20-question Presidential Match Quiz to see which candidate best represents the issues you find important.

Cruise on over to On The Issues and take a few minutes to get informed on what might be the most important election of your life. (Note: once you have the knowledge, don’t get too full of yourself!)
