Rick Santorum (in review)

The Iowa Caucus is about a month away now and I feel it is important that I give where I stand on each candidate. Anyone who has read any post of mine probably knows I'm for Ron Paul, but that doesn't mean there aren't things that I like or dislike about all the other candidates. I will also add the key points to their page.

I started the primary season (in the spring/summer) thinking I would be voting for Herman Cain, but my mind has been changed so it is possible in the future that I update these reviews of the candidates with new information. I will start from the candidate that I think is least likely that I will vote for

Rick Santorum Bantam freedom score of 2 (out of a possible 10)
Key notes-
1. former senator for Pennsylvania
2. devout Catholic
3. strong family values

Conservative Strenghts (Conservative strenghts not what I believe is good)
Against abortion
Against Gay Marriage
For huge military and strong against terrorism
For Homeschooling

Conservative Weakness
For huge government intervention in your life
Believes law is there to "teach" (presidents should make laws based on their morals, not just the constitution)

I like Rick Santorum as a individual and I believe he does have good intentions and would make good decisions as a president based on his views, but he would be disastrous in the long run for America.
