My SelectSmart Results for Presidential Candidate....post yours here
Edited on Wed Feb-11-04 01:03 AM by Dob Bole
1. Your ideal theoretical candidate. (100%)
2. Kucinich, Rep. Dennis, OH - Democrat (76%)
3. Kerry, Senator John, MA - Democrat (65%)
4. Sharpton, Reverend Al - Democrat (63%)
5. Socialist Candidate (62%)
6. LaRouche, Lyndon H. Jr. - Democrat (56%)
7. Dean, Gov. Howard, VT - Democrat (56%)
8. Edwards, Senator John, NC - Democrat (55%)
9. Clark, Retired General Wesley K., AR - Democrat (43%)
10. Gephardt, Rep. Dick, MO - Democrat (40%)
11. Moseley-Braun, Former Senator Carol, IL - Democrat (39%)
12. Bush, President George W. - Republican (38%)
13. Lieberman, Senator Joe, CT - Democrat (36%)
14. Libertarian Candidate (28%)

I find it funny that Bush is closer to my views than Lieberman. But I could be persuaded, especially since his (Lieberman's) daughers are the most beautiful human beings I have ever seen.

Edit: oops! Linkage- http://www.selectsmart.com/president/

5. If this was accurate 8 & 9 would be reversed.
I'm not surprised #1 is me but I am very surprised #2 is Kucinich, which leads me to believe this is a Kucinich supporting web site. #3 should be #2, #6 should be #3, #5 should have dropped out by now. Who is #2 again?

14. So you'd rather assume bias in the website
rather than admit to the possibility that you are supporting a candidate who does not match your political views?

It's supposed to be a learning tool. Why don't you try to learn something from it.

15. Hagelin, Dr. John - Natural Law (13%)
16. Bush, President George W. - Republican (11%)
17. Phillips, Howard - Constitution (3%)

things i've learned from this quiz:
1) policy positions are not the most important things in making up my mind, as DK is about as close to a 100% candidate as i've ever seen.

2) apparently there is another person on the planet whose political views are further from my own than dubya's.

3) apparently lyndon larouche is still alive. hm.

4) and i could've sworn hagelin should be further up that scale, as i probably would've voted for him in 2000 if nader hadn't been running.

5) apparently campaign finance doesn't merit a question in the quiz. pity, that.

15. I win! Bush 2%!! (But it's a rotten survey)
Now, can someone get Bush down to ZERO?

It's a rotten survey - nothing about tax cuts for rich and super-rich vs rest of us. Only "do you want to increase taxes?". (I mentally added "for the rich" and said Yes.)

Also, the only way to oppose ridiculous 20 year sentences for minor drug offenders is to vote: laws for all hard drugs should be reduced or eliminated.

That's probably why I won! I had the nerve to vote against drug laws and for a Palestinian state.

Try to get Bush down to ZERO!
