Some Great Election Blogs

Renewable energy is an important issue in this election, but renewable energy is not the only issue worth discussing. Nobody can decide which Presidential candidate to support by comparing the candidates' stances on only one issue, so I selected three links to blogs that deal with other issues. There were many blogs to choose from, and I cannot display all of them, but choosing three blogs from the entire collection was very difficult. You are welcome to explore other blogs that deal with issues, but I will show why you should visit these three blogs in particular, so I recommend that you visit these blogs first.

The Issue On Taxes
by IGetNoSleep

Taxes are an important issue in the election, and, as IGetNoSleep has mentioned, are important in the Presidential Debates. There are analyses of these debates with respect to taxes, along with a plethora of information and links in one post. Recently, there was a post outlining an intriguing type of tax, but that post stands alone in its intrigue. However, IGetNoSleep posts earlier than the authors of other blogs dealing with election issues while maintaining an equivalent or higher level of post quality. If that speediness is insufficient, as of this post, the entire Vice Presidential Debate can be watched or read without interruption. In fact, the only reason not to look at this blog is an insignificant error in described post publication, as posts usually are published on Tuesdays or Fridays, not Tuesdays and Sundays. This error, though, can be easily repaired, and since taxes are discussed frequently, you would be wise to educate yourself with the information shown in this blog.

Apparently Money Doesn't Grow On Trees by Britney

This blog focuses on the economy, and, unsurprisingly, has some focus on the bailout plan. This blog, though, also has briefly outlined the less obvious declines in the global market. As of this post, the connection between the global markets has not yet been explored, but the post mentioning that fact was quite recent, and Britney counteracts this small gap by providing consistently large amounts of information in each post, and these posts may contain the most well-blended information in the blogs I looked at. There are also figures and a video on the economy to look at if you do not feel like reading Britney's posts. There is also a sidebar filled with the latest economical news, only adding to the saturation of information in the blog. In fact, given the obscurity of the global market on television, you may learn more about the economy from this blog than from the mainstream media.

Foreign Policy In Regards To Colombia by St3Vzla

Perhaps the most intriguing of all the blogs, this blog focuses on the issue of drug policy, particularly with respect to Colombia. The author, despite the little or no amount of coverage of this issue in the news, managed to collect a surplus of knowledge for one post. Many of the other posts, though, lack that large concentration of information, nor is there any news bar or similar extra addition, but the huge concentration of information is less than what can be found by researching other issues. Despite the difficulties in researching this topic, St3Vzla has maintained great variety in the posts so far, making this blog a nice blog to see one of several issues buried among the many other issues of this election.
