So far I here people voting for certain candidates based on their war stance. But what happens after? What are your reasons beyond the war for supporting your candidate? Immigration, taxes, health care ,economy and more social issues. Please tell me what is important to you after the war and why you support your candidate on the issues above, because face it life will go on here in American when the war is over. I am trying to understand why these front runners are so popular. Thanks

After the war ... I want a government that's fiscally responsible and respects the Constitution, and doesn't think every problem is solved by creating a new program and throwing money at it.

That's why Paul is my guy.

Can you give more info, such as when do you anticipate the 'end of the war', how will you know it's ended, what if a U.S. Embassy gets bombed afterwards, or another Navy vessel, or some U.S. citizens kidnapped by an Islamo-Fascist demanding the resignation of Hillary?

I'd really like for you to define that 'end of the war' before I go stepping in the doo. Unless you're a looney liberal leftist, in which case no further info required.

Illegal immigration, H1b visas, outsourcing, free trade. Any issue that directly effects the American workers pay. And I get sick of hearing about bogus unemployment numbers, job growth and a growing economy, a thriving stock market and all this nebulous crap that means nothing to a man trying to put food on the table.

I want good paying jobs and living wages for everyone.

Believe it or not, my support for several of the Democrats in this race has nothing to do with the war. Both parties are culpable, as far as the war's concerned.

I actually believe in social programs, healthcare, education... and even believe in taxes to pay for those things! (Though I do think we need to trim a lot of fat in the gov't). I don't believe that privitization is the answer to everything. I, too, believe in the Constitution. I believe in Habeas Corpus. I believe in fostering international relationships and cooperation. I believe in reducing the level of constant fear that pervades our nation.

So you feel the war will go on forever? Cant you just answer the question?Why are you voting for your candidate, other than war stance. No I am not a liberal looney.
