#29 on the MOST POPULAR tab (at 12:58am pst). Out NEWEST question - Please help get it to #3.
"If you believe we need to win the war in Iraq to make progress in the war on terror, do we not need to start and win wars in all countries that harbor Islamic fundamentalists since they are the proclaimed enemy? Do you agree with Senator McCain's statement two weeks ago when he said 'I'm sorry to tell you, theres going to be other wars'?"
#11 on the MOST POPULAR tab. Please help get it to #4.
"What caused the housing bubble?"
#5 on the MOST POPULAR tabPlease help get it to #5.
"The Federal Reserve recently propped up the markets with an emergency rate cut, which experts agree will create yet another bubble. Do you believe that the government should continue to delegate the power to control our economy to a private banking institution, that has no congressional oversight?"
#1 on the Most Popular Tab. Please vote for to keep it on top.
"Can you explain exactly what your definition of winning the war on terror (not limited to Iraq) is, when you think we will 'win', what you think it will cost to 'win', and whether you feel the cost today and in the future is and will continue to be major drain on the economy?"
Moderator - please note this is solely intended to be a question about the candidates views on the impact of the war on terror on our economy (and is not meant to be a foreign policy or Iraq question).
#2 on the Most Popular Tab. Please vote for it to keep it on top.
"In the Florida debate Senator McCain said "we have american troops all over the world today and nobody complains about it because we are defending freedom. Thats one of the obligations of being the worlds super power."
Do the rest of you agree with Senator McCain and if so, what amount of taxpayer money will you allocate for this obligation?
Do you believe that a majority of American taxpayers also feel this obligation and want to fund the defense of freedoms across the world, while we loose our own."

No other candidate can answer these questions successfully given their positions on the war and the economy.
A LOT of thought went into these questions. They are specifically designed to (a) touch hot button issues - the economy and foreign policy, (b) not be an overtly blatant RP questions (even though we might see it that way) and (c) ensure that candidates who dont answer the question are exposed.
Please help spread the word to vote for this questions. Send this to your facebook/myspace friends, email contacts - who ever you can.
Keep the vote legit so we can hold our heads high and say that thousands of Americans want to know the answer to the question.
