I found myself on Bernie Sanders' website today reading his statement on the alleged violence and all of the other nonsense in Nevada.

While I was there, I had a few free moments, so I clicked on "Issues" and quickly scanned the 34 listed issues. I even read a bit about Guam... because holy crap - Guam is an issue? well it is - but that's not what this post is about - this post is just a quick observation. Senator Sanders offers 34 issues for me to read about, learn about, study, etc.

So this got me thinking... off to Donald Trump's website I went.

Issues? He lists 7 positions... and one of them is the wall. and one of them is the guns. I guess I won't discount those two positions (as much as I would like to), Mr. Trump is taking 7 positions.

Lastly - I meandered over to Secretary Clinton's website. She lists 31 issues.

I'm not suggesting that the number of issues (or positions) is something to judge a candidate by. This is simply an observation that some candidates seem to have thought through real issues that effect the lives of everyday US citizens, and some have not.

Get informed kids. It's certainly time that I do.

Fewer issues = less likely for a Trump supporter to find something to disagree with.
