How come certain presidential candidates web sites don't talk about certain issues.?

The republican web sites dont say anything about force and the environment, while its the top issue on democratic web sites. Likewise, Democratic web sites dont talk about immigration.

Because at this issue, they are running for their party's nomination. If you look at the polls, immigration is not as high a priority for Democratic first-class voters as it is for Republican primary voters. Likewise, according to the polls, apparently Republican voters don't mind a look after much about energy and the environment.

After the primaries are over, you will see some changes on the websites of the two winners and they will begin talking about the issues that problem to those who only vote in the general election.

A campaign is about getting elected and you have to get the nomination first before you can get elected. Thus, for now, the candidates are going to devote most of their time and resources on appealing to those who are going to determine who gets nominated.
