" I think it's nuts to have six Catholics on the Supreme Court, I couldn't care less whether or not you're an Evangelical - as long as you keep your religious views out of my government."

I'm with you, NO religion mixed with government.
The funny thing is Evangelicals are the biggest offenders in this regard. Take Huckabee & the rest, always trying to impose their views on the rest.
The Catholics on the Supreme Court haven't shown any overt influence of their religion in their rulings.

Candidates should tell voters what their main goals are & how they intend to enact them.
First question I'd ask, do you believe in 'compromise?'
and will you spend time with both parties?

Obama was a great candidate, but a lousy politician!
He didn't even spend time with his own party developing relationships, let alone the other party. That has caused a lot of issues, with regard to governing...

I am curious where you see yourself.

I'm a person that shares some views with each party and is at odds with much of each. I do not favor the two party system, and think there is a glaring need for something in the middle.

How do you distinguish your views from those of the Republican Party?

I have zero interest in abortion, I don't want the ten commandments posted, I do not want religion involved in government, I think it's nuts to have six Catholics on the Supreme Court, I couldn't care less whether or not you're an Evangelical - as long as you keep your religious views out of my government.

I think Wall Street is almost EVIL and needs to be reigned in. I think there should probably be a different, more "punitive" tax rate for income derived by the likes of hedge funds...or corporate CEOs that make 1,000 times what their workers do.

I think we need to raise the SS retirement age, and probably tweak the rate higher.

I *think* I'm in favor of universal health care. Or something WAY different than what we had, or now have with ObamaCare

I could probably come up with a lot more, if I thought for another minute or two about it.

saw the media as victimising the GOP

You missed my point. Not victimizing. Wasting/ruining a chance for me to learn positions/philosophies from the candidates.

Not that you can ever find a Republican who admits to listening to Limbaugh or watching Fox News.

I'm not a Republican. I have never watched/listened to Rush. I do watch Shepard Smith on Fox.

I'll finish later, I've got to run.
