What Would Make You Vote?

Our official school year is over, so now I get to blog about things I find interesting, or consider hot fun topics. So I was reading on a few different blogs and news stories about the 2012 presidential election next year. It is starting to pick up now. So a couple of questions and thoughts for you all to share.

1- If you voted for Obama in 2008 but are unsure if you will vote for him again in 2012, what one piece of legislation could he take up and pass that would swing your vote? For me, I want him to cut the salary and cushy benefits of all the House and Senate members. It is not even constitutional that they are getting paid, and benefits like health care. Plus the money that would be saved by taxpayers would be immense. I seriously wonder if all House and Senate members were not paid their yearly wage, how much of the Obama health care plan could be funded just by doing that. Hmm that is a thought.

2- If you are a Republican kind of voter, which one of the ones already running do you like and why? What one platform topic could they run on that would secure your vote?

3- If you are an independent like me, which way are you leaning? I already spoke about Obama, for me to pick a Republican they would have to not be endorsed or more likely pushed by the Tea Party. They are just too drastic in their thoughts for me.

So what say you? Be nice politics can be brutal.
