(1) Gov't never has the right and should not be given the power to snoop into or dictate my private affairs.
(2) Gov't should stay out of the economy unless the economy for whatever reason stops functioning. When it does the government may need to spend to start the economic bloodstream flowing. One of the elementary principals of economics is the movement of capital (spending). When private money stops flowing the public sector money must take up the slack. The economy has to have a flow of capital to function and it does't really care where the capital comes from.
(3) Religion as you practice it should guide your personal life. It should not be used by government give one religious group power over another religious or over those without religious beliefs.
(4)Except in response to actual attack, our nation should always place diplomacy over military action. We should stay out of the affairs of other nations unless they are an immediate and direct threat to our security. This was not the case in Viet Nam or Iraq. It is true in Afganistan and Pakistan.

Being a Georgian, I will admit to voting for Carter the first time out of state pride. The second time and in each other election except 2008, I voted for the candidate who seemed generally less extreme either left or right. I voted for McCain in the Ga. primary in 2000. In 2008 I voted for Obama because McCain sold his soul to the most extreme elements of a party that has itself become too extreme for its own, the nation's, and the world's best interest.
