Introduction
You will select and research one candidate for U.S. President/Vice President. In addition to using books, magazines and newspapers to find information about the candidate's point of view on major campaign issues, why not also use the power of the Internet? The links below will get you started.

You should find out as much information as possible on your candidate, because you will complete a Presidential Candidate Summary Sheet. You will also be encouraged to read and bring in articles about candidates which we will display on our Election 2008 Bulletin Board.

*Third Party Challenge: You may already have a favorite candidate and you probably know a lot about this candidate. Challenge yourself to select a Third Party candidate you know nothing about. Then, compare and see if you feel the same way about your favorite.
