Select a Candidate Quiz

Takes about 1-2 minutes.

This will compare your answers with ALL candidates. I found this to be of interest .... It may not actually pick your "favorite" candidate (or party) It did not select the candidate I had expected! What was really interesting was how all of the candidates rated with my views of life and politics. Click on the website below

Pass this along to friends ... I suggest you do it without disclosing who your candidate was before and after the survey!

I don’t believe these are issues for the Fed. government...

( Should have written: Constitutional amendments...)

Another tie between Fred and Duncan, I’m for Fred though.

The only issues I “agree” with Hitlery and others is the death penalty which they really don’t support and know it’s a non-issue where they can make themselves look tough on crime.

With guys Like Romney and Guiliani it’s impossible to have them on this test because they change their positions to pretend to be conservative, and will then become liberals again if they win.

My top two were Fred and Duncan with 47 each. I think the only thing we differed on was my opinion that children of illegals born in the U.S. should not automatically be granted citizenship.

That train has already left the station. The Supreme Court is part of the Federal Government.

For kicks and giggles I’ve taken this quiz twice now. Both times came up McCain. Heck of it is, I wouldn’t give him the time of day let alone my vote.

For me...Hunter won w 34...while Tancredo, Thompson, and Romney (huh?) tied for second at 31

I am a little puzzled.....the summary said that Hunter didnt agree w me on immigration! There may be a little problem w the survey...although I figured Hunter and Tancredo would be one-two w me.

That’s why I tried to clarify my statement ( I got distracted when I meant to say constitutional amendment.)

Yes, the SCOTUS is part of the gov., and the error of Roe was made by that body, and that body needs to make the correction. That’s the way I look at it, and why it is so important in my book that we continue to elect a President that will appoint Justices that will break the stranglehold of decades of liberalism...

Yeah. I came out with McCain, Tancredo, then Thompson and Hunter tied.

They’ve miscategorized Thompson’s position on the marriage amendment: he’s not in favor—he prefers forbidding court redefinition of marriage and leaving the matter to the legislatures of the several states—and doesn’t seem to think the issue is a big one, which agrees with how I ranked it, but the site shows me as disagreeing with Thompson.

I’m guessing they are representing McCain’s positions as more conservative than they actually are in the way they score the quiz.

Of course, one of the issues I don’t agree with Tancredo is his only campaign issue—I’m not such a radical exclusionist on immigration—my substantial agreement with him on almost everything else is irrelevant.

That's one part of my earlier post. I ended up with a 1 on Kucinich for that reason! LOL! I doubt if that wacko and I could even agree as to which planet we are currently on!

That what they want you to think. They said the same thing about Howie Dean about this time in 2003. Too bad for the Establishment Republicans activists, not random Junk Media poll respondents, nominate the Party's nominee

I was 44 each for Thompson and Hunter. Neither Hillary or Obama appeared on the list. I weighted most of the questions as “very important”. See what that does for you if you take the quiz again.

Took a similar quiz in USAToday and came up with Romney. Not a chance.
