<DIV>I think that this survey is a good idea and that the questions posed could be helpful to those voters that these issues are important to as they make their decisions on who to vote for. It would be my suggestion that the survey allow for an essay answer instead of the "yes" "no", etc. That allows for the candidates to justify their answer no matter which side of the issues they happen to fall on. Then we as voters can make our decisions based on their reasoning, yes, no, or non-answers. <BR><BR><B><I>Nate Wilson <natewilson@moscow.com></I></B> wrote:
