Abortion and gay marriage.
People simply do not understand that it is not a federal issue. It is an issue that should be dealt at by the people and through their states.
Take North Dakota as an example for abortion. Legislation to outlaw abortion came up and you would think they were conservative and would vote to outlaw it. But they didn't.
It is not meant for the government to be meddling in period. When the states can deal and decide on this then the people can have a voice.
The federal government consistantly tries to make a "one size fits all" motto and it simply is absurd.
I am a Ron Paul supporter btw.

There are two big issues. First should we be governed by people who think government should be small but nevertheless should have military strength to protect us, and should have low income tax rates to encourage people to work, save, and invest, thereby boosting the national economy and helping us all; or those who believe in massive government controlling us, with high taxes to punish the "rich" with the taxes taken from us used to encourage citizens to rely on government handouts.
Second should we try to defeat terrorism and dictatorship with military action, or should we be appeasers who hope our enemies are not encouraged by our cowardliness, weakness, and failure to fight.
Then as a very minor bit of the second, should we bring home troops before they have been allowed to finish the job for which many have died. I can not imagine more than a few radicals going for the last, except for purely political reasons. Thus it is so wrong and so unlikely it is the most trivial.

The battle is for voters who are not straight line Republican or Democrat. To these voters, I believe the least "big issue" is global warming. There are so many other issues that are less controversial (ie. clear cut), that trying to battle whether or not it exists is a waste of time for the candidates. I think those on the fence are more concerned about international issues, healthcare, immigration, budget deficit, national debt, taxes, etc.

i visit vote Mousavi and that i'm no longer the form of person who votes for him because of the fact she/ he's terrified of the fact that Karrobi would not have many votes. Mousavi is what we want at modern subject, a brave, smart and knowledgeable guy who knows what he's talking approximately.
