I quit immediately upon seeing the very first issue's phrasing: whether you want a president who will "Appoint Judges Who Will Outlaw Abortions."

No one is talking about judges being able to announce, "whoo! I am outlawing abortion! Ta da!" or appointing such judges.

The proper phrasing would be, "Appoint Judges Who Will Sustain Greater State Restrictions On Abortion."

Judges can't outlaw anything. That is the duty and power of the legislature.

Supreme Court judges can determine if a law violates a state or the national Constitution.

Are young children due Constitutional protection of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness?

The Supreme Court will one day determine that abortion (infanticide) is unconstitutional.

Relative to one another, how important are the following factors?

So that your results are prioritized according to the issues that concern you most, tell us how important each one is to you. The information you provide will be used to rank the candidates on your final list.

Social Issues
Crime/Education
Security and International Policy
Benefit Programs
The Economy/Environment

Only at the leftist Big Media would interest in the Economy be tied to the Environment or Crime linked to Education.

Crime is tied to Security (threats internal and external). Crime includes everything from violent crime to drug trafficking to mail fraud and identity theft.

What are "social issues"? Socialist issues? What makes them different from "benefit programs"?

Where is "the Constitution" in the list of issues that concern you most?
