RE: Answer 10 questions - see which candidate matches best
1. Dennis Kucinich - nyynnynyynyn - 16
2. Ron Paul - nynnnnnynnyy - 12
3. Bill Richardson - nyynnyynnnny - 10
4. John Edwards - nyynnyynynny - 8
5. Barack Obama - nyynyyynynny - 6
6. Hillary Clinton - nyynyyynynny - 6
7. John McCain - yynyyyynnyny - -8
8. Mike Huckabee - yynyynynnyny - -10
9. Mitt Romney - yynyynynnyny - -10
10. Rudy Giuliani - ynnnyyyynyny - -10

I thought these questions were absurd, by the way.

"Should the government provide a universal health care system?" strongly implies a government run system. I don't know any candidate other than Kucinich is advocating that. What most democrats support is the idea of universal access to affordable healthcare, and reform that will ensure that every American has access to affordable and portable healthcare that meets patients needs.

Also, the immigration question is ridiculously vague. What are "stronger measures against the presence of illegal immigrants?" That sounds like it almost implies a massive search and deportation operation for 12 million people... Now, more border control on the other hand, I think we could all support.

Also, is the only solution for Social Security a FICA rate hike? I doubt it, but does clicking no mean you don't want to do anything about the SS system?

I hate surveys like this, but I guess I took it so I deserve what I got.

My hunch is that the survey's yes/no methodology skews things towards the most ideological candidates, Paul and Kucinich.

I also got a 1.09 in the "Overall Presidential Candidate Rankings", so it doesn't look like I'm getting elected anytime soon. 03-lmfao It's just as well. I don't think the USA is ready for Government By LauraMac.

That once again the Other Greg Childers is right and you are wrong....

And don't think about arguing this fact, as no actual proof will be presented. However, you are definitely wrong.

You wouldn't know a fact if it gave you a lap dance.

I just said it was interesting. I didn't say that the poll was scientific by any stretch of the imagination. Internet polls are meaningless.

RE: Answer 10 questions - see which candidate matches best
the scary thing is Richardson is the only candidate of the Dems that beleives in markets basically.

Richardson also has far more overall political experience in different positions of responsibility than any candidate of either party

1) 6 term US Congressman
2) Energy Secretary (cabinet position) no other candidate except Tommy THompson(R-WI) has cabinet level experience.
3) US Ambassador to the UN- foreign policy experience that almost all others lack especially Guiliani, ROmney, Huckabee, Paul and Clinton.
4) Governor of New Mexico, Chief Executive Experience that Fred Thompson, Clinton,Obama, Biden and McCain lack.

5) Is Multilingual, a real plus in a world with fast growing developing nations in Central & South AMerica.
