Patriotcast Vol 2 No 2

Welcome!  This episode looks at the Republican candidates and MacWorld 2008.

I present a detailed comparison of Mitt Romney, John McCain, Rudy Giuliani, Mike Huckabee and Fred Thomson.  I provide the candidates' positions on the following issues:  immigration, terrorism, the Iraq war, fiscal responsibility, economy and taxes, and healthcare.  From January 16th to the 18th, I examined the "Issues" section of each candidate's web site and attempted to extract each candidate's position.  I have prepared a PDF document of the Candidates' Position that you may download.  The order of the data has been changed from the podcast presentation to allow for proper comparison among the candidates.  I hope you find this document useful.  I strongly encourage everyone to go to each candidate's web site and gain your own understanding of the candidate's position.  This presentation may not yield the nuances of each position.

I plan on presenting the same comparison for the leading democratic candidates during my next podcast.

The second part of the podcast discusses the announcements that were made at MacWorld 2008: Mac OS X Leopard Sales, Time Capsule, iPhone software enhancements (mapping location), iTunes Movie Rentals and Apple TV, and MacBook Air.
