What the Candidates Say About Autism

Translate Into:

I was over at the Autism Society of America website and I noticed they have a section called “Vote 4 Autism” so I clicked on it.  I was excited to see that they have linked the official statements of both John McCain and Barack Obama on Autism.  With the election coming up so quickly it is important to keep that research going on the candidates so in order to provide you with the information I have linked the statements below.

John McCain

Barack Obama

You know, I’m not going to put anything on this site about who I support for President.  I just want you as readers to read about the issues, read about what matters to you, and make an informed decision.
