Please check Factcheck.org before voting

Let's face it, both sides lie out of their respective asses in their campaign ads. I would highly suggest that everyone check out Factcheck.org before voting to separate the facts from the enormous piles of B.S. this site is not affiliated with either party. it's like a political snopes.com. it debunks false assertions by both parties.

also, please consider 3rd party candidates. as long as we have a 2 party system, we are going to be stuck with voting for the lesser of 2 evils.

I dont think its fair that any candidate is allowed to spew any kind of BS They want. It is deceitful to the American public. Independent sites that check facts should be the sole focal point for how politicians really feel or vote on issues.

Going by what is said in campaign adds or in rallies gives you nothing of a sense of who you are voting for, ON EITHER SIDE

i agree, political candidates need to be far more honest than they are, but unfortunately the reality is that the people dont vote for honest candidates, with the exception of ronald reagan, they vote for the candidate who promises the most for them.
