Most of the sites I've seen with all the candidates arent very good. Theyre mostly incomplete at best.
There are 18 candidates running for the Democratic and Republican nominations right now. I'll give you their names and campaign websites)
Democrats;
Barack Obama - http://www.barackobama.com/
Dennis Kucinich - http://kucinich.us/
Mike Gravel - http://www.Gravel2008.us
Joe Biden - http://www.joebiden.com
Hillary Clinton - http://www.hillaryclinton.com
John Edwards - http://www.johnedwards.com
Bill Richardson - http://richardsonforpresident.com
Chris Dodd - http://www.chrisdodd.com
Republicans;
Rudy Giuliani - http://www.joinrudy2008.com
John McCain - http://www.johnmccain.com
Ron Paul - http://www.ronpaul2008.com
Sam Brownback - http://www.brownback.com
Tommy Thompson - http://www.tommy2008.com
Tom Tancredo - http://www.teamtancredo.com
Jim Gilmore - http://www.jimgilmore08.com
Mitt Romney - http://www.mittromney.com
Mike Huckabee - http://www.explorehuckabee.com/
Duncan Hunter - http://www.gohunter08.com
Keep in mind these are their campaign websites, and so naturally youre only going to find the stances they say they have. In order to really make the best choice you should look into all their records and such to make sure they actually practice what they preach, etc. You can see their un-biased biographies on Wikipedia.org, by just typing in their name in the search bar.

Each candidate has his or her own web site. Do a Y! search by the candidate's name. Then visit his/her site.
Don't rely on web sites from special interest groups, bloggers or hatchet men, as they all will be biased.
Congratulations, you are doing the right thing...getting yourself properly informed and educated. It's too bad all voters don't do that.

I like this one because it has a wealth of information about US government and Congressional candidates as well as state issues. There are also some great links.
Congratulations on exercising your right to vote!

You only need to know about Ron Paul if you have any brains whatsoever. If you are braindead I cannot help you. All the other candidates are exactly the same.

You can go to their official websites which explains their positions on issues. Sometimes your local big-city paper or news channels have it on their websites.
