You're voting for it. When somebody is 72 years old, then their V.P.'s views are very important. You don't want people to know what her views are? That's what's going on here. Her views are being listed. I don't think people know enough about the views of people they vote for. That's how that war keeps going on when the majority of Americans don't want it going on. When you vote for President you're voting for their possible replacement. Our next election for President is in 4 years(not like we are gunna vote for his replacement is some special election.) If he has a heart attack next summer, then we are gunna have this lady as President for three and a half years. This would be the oldest guy I can remember going in as president. That's why the 2nd in command's views need to be clear. Now is the time to worry about it. Not then. If you vote for her, then you need to take responsibility for what she does. Same as the people who voted for Bush need to take responsibility for those 4100 Americans that he got killed in Iraq.

No matter who wins, or who dies and their VP is now Prez.. nothing will change law wise about abortion, gay rights, creationism (you really think her possibly being president would have any impact on this).
Its all up to Congress to start bills on these issues.. and they will not be started nor won or lost.
I think there are much more important issues out there than abortion (roe vs wade aint going anywhere), gay rights (hey I'm all for them, but the national gov wont be making any decisions on this... and obama supports civil unions but not gay marriage (I BELIEVE) anyway.. this will be a state by state issue), creationism (get real.. aint gonna happen).
There are too many WAY more important issues out there (#1 being our safety) to decide a candidate based of those 3 issues SCUDS.
As for your last line, you're an idiot.
