Some things I know about Al Franken from his radio show:
1) He's against the 2005 Bush Bankruptcy Bill. He's talked about how bankruptcy is often the result of medical bills.

2) He supports "Net Neutrality."

"Net Neutrality" legislation could prevent the people who run "Democratic Underground" from getting hit with new bills from telecommunications companies.

3) He's against the Bush tax cuts for the rich which turned budget surpluses into budget deficits.

4) He has a low opinion of Rush Limbaugh and Bill O'Reilly.


Feel free to share this information with anyone who may be more likely to vote for Al Franken based on it.

1. He's for the expansion of Medicare as a government insurance program because it is EFFICIENT
More efficiency= more money going toward care, less going to red tape, and less coming out of YOUR pocket.
