door to door candidates are just people that knock on your door to say whom they are and why they are standing

You should have put 'door to door representatives of the candidate i should not have put that due to the fact that that is wrong i am asking about door to door candidates not representatives if you wish to make a rude remark about my spelling or, in this instance a definition, do me the honour of getting it right

Oh I see. Well I thought you meant representatives of candidates, because no serious candidate has time to actually knock on random peoples' doors and talk to them about themselves and the election. You didn't see Tony Blair, George Bush, Bill Clinton, Margaret Thatcher, or don't see Hilary Clinton, Barack Obama or John McCain doing the same either. Clearly for an obvious reason, it's highly ineffective and time wasting.

Talk to people publically, take questions, get to know your voters.

Are TV ads for parties allowed in the USA? What about the poorest parties, don't they get a say in promoting the party? The ideal thing is to have common days (usually saturdays) where representatives for the different parties meet one place and talk with people, give them brochures etc. That's the best way for the People to get information. Happy workers' day.

At the moment in the UK, i would just like it if Gordon Brown could hold an election so that he would get thrown out... he made such a mess of things yesterday... if only it had been a general election.

Door-to-door, but in most cases that's not ideal, or even possible, so letters or some such would be good.

I think it's much more helpful to have the candidates have debates over youtube and to have a lot of their information accessible over the internet so much more of the general public can access it. Otherwise, if it's too difficult to find out, a lot of people will be apathetic and you won't get anywhere with it.

In most cases, door-to-dooring is done by local electionists, candidates in the county or...whatever it is in the USA. For instance I live in North Wiltshire, so a candidate might come to my area and knock on peoples doors.
