Great website for knowing where politicians stand on nearly every issue (voting rec, etc)

I wonder if he [Obama] has had stock in PP since he voted against the born alive infant protection act.

"The logical import of Obama’s vote against BAIPA [Born-Alive Infant Protection Act] is that he disagrees, i.e., once a baby has been targeted for abortion it thereafter has no inherent right to the food, comfort, and medical care provided to other babies born alive.

Indeed, during Illinois state senate deliberations on BAIPA, Obama stated that one of his objections was that the bill was “designed to burden the original decision of the woman and the physician to induce labor and perform an abortion.” Apparently, once the decision to abort has been made, a child is doomed even if born alive."

Thanks for the post, ETL. Site has a good bit of information, and on quick review of a few (Kasich, Carson, Cruz, and Sanders) looks to be pretty comprehensive.

Thanks, went there twice did not see his picture.

[ETL]

I’m sure it was there. He’s the lone black candidate, so it’s easy to remember. Unless, for some reason, perhaps a correction to something about him, they temporarily removed it.

Excellent, once again...thanks.

[ETL]

Yes, thanks for that.

It definitely is a useful site, even though, in some instances, there is at least the opportunity for them to falsely or incorrectly interpret particular people’s positions and views on things. Voting record is the most reliable.
