* Informed Voting ~ Track What the Candidates are Saying

FAITH 2008

"Will faith play the role in the 2008 election that it did in 2004? How will candidates articulate their personal beliefs? How will they relate them to public policy issues ranging from education and social policy to terrorism and the war in Iraq?

"The Faith 2008 database is designed to address these questions. It tracks references to religion in the speeches and statements of the major candidates of both parties. Users can filter results by party and topic, compare statements across candidates, and explore the evolution of controversies over time.

"The database is now in a start-up phase."

"Faith and..." topics: Church/State, Education, Foreign Affairs, Morality, Social Policy, Tolerance
