Ok I don't get this.
Everyone has values. But don't we have some kind of ranking system? Here's a couple of questions to consider for this election.

What's more important to you:
a. being able to have a job and putting food on your table
OR
b. if someone else can get married

What's more important to you:
a. If your tax money creates jobs and gives you a retirement
OR
b. that it provide a golden parachute to Billionaire CEOs that sank our country's economy like the Titanic.

What's more important to you:
a. A leader that will take all powers, keep everything secret and prevent any trace from being found, that will take your money and give it to his billionaire buddies
OR
b. A president that believes in democracy, that elected officials have to represent the majority that elected them (even if he/she disagrees), and that will answer questions (even when they're tough), keep records of what is being said and done (so that others in history can learn from challenges and opportunities of our times), and invest in today and tomorrow's economy

And let's be real.

If someone who is running for the office to REPRESENT the people of a nation refuses a debate with his opponent, will that person, once elected:
a. Be accountable to the people, respond to inquiries from the press and from control systems in the democracy
OR
b. Take the executive power to be a form of monarchy, where the ruler decides to his/her own will (and let's face it, not represent the people or the people's will)

... These decisions are why I vote.
