The 2012 Presidential Election Campaign and Decision

How can voters decide between the two candidates, one of whom will be not only president, but also leader of the free world?
The 2012 presidential election campaign is almost over except for the debates, which are really beauty contests.  Unfortunately, obtaining accurate information on the major issues during the campaign has turned into a nightmare of too many lies.
Hopefully, the pre-election list below, organized around domestic policy issues and foreign policy issues, will help by providing a series of choices that the American people need to make regarding significant issues.  When voters decide between the list options and tally them, they will arrive at the presidential candidate who best represents their values and issue positions and whom they should vote for on Tuesday, November 6.
Domestic Policy Issues

• Free enterprise, self-reliance vs. Governmental "free lunch," living "on the dole," and welfare

• Reducing deficit/debt by unleashing the private sector vs. Costly stimulus packages

• Eastern European countries' economic successes vs. Greek failed economic model

• Oil/gas exploration for energy independence vs. Solyndra-like failures, oil production decreases, and crushing EPA regulations

• Tax cuts reducing unemployment rates; spending cuts to drive GDP growth vs. Rising unemployment rates, shrinking labor force with worst job record, and waning economic growth

• Free-market health care reducing premiums, maintaining quality vs. ObamaCare's rising costs and abysmal quality (Britain's National Health Service)
