Joe Shriner

While Katolik Shinja has yet to endorse a candidate for the 2004 U.S. presidential election, the Average Joe Shriner Campaign merits further consideration.

Among other things, he's...
    against abortion, capital punishment, euthanasia, cloning, the IRS, and

    for family farms, a "just war" policy, less consumption, and alternative energy sources

Foreign policy seems to be Mr. Shriner's Achilles' Heel. He doesn't seem to have a strategy to fight terrorism. "Root causes" are mentioned, meaning poverty, but not a word is said about militant Islam. If poverty were truly the cause of terrorism, we'd see more terrorists coming from places like Bolivia, the Central African Republic, or Laos.
