Many politicians and candidates claim that they speak for American voters when in the fact the policies they advocate actually misrepresent voters' preferences.

For example, most of the 2008 presidential candidates say their proposals for "universal" health care, which are based largely on the existing system of private insurance, are what the people want. But polls show that a majority of Americans actually prefer a single payer government-guaranteed health insurance system based on the current Medicare system.

When you join millions of Americans in emailing your agendas to the media and contributing your policy preferences to this website's periodic opinion polls, you can set the record straight about you really want.

Query Service. Once you contribute your policy priorities to one of the public opinion polls, you gain the right to query the poll database to track emerging trends, e.g. how many people select particular policy options or combinations of policy options and in what ZIP codes they live.

If these contributors have indicated their age group or gender, you can obtain this information also and see how it correlates with their policy priorities, as well as with important events and changing conditions locally, regionally and nationally.

Locator service. In addition, once you have contributed your policy priorities to a poll, you are also entitled to take advantage of the poll database and this website's free locator service to find prospective allies who have also contributed their agendas to the database and whose policy priorities are statistically similar to yours, as described in #6 below.
