In response to the 'Ron Paul' thread......

[ACooper]

Here is a fun little quiz that might show you WHICH candidate you are more aligned with 'views wise'

I can tell you that Ron Paul was tied with one other Candidate as my top selection (that matched my views closely) and Hillary and Obama were WAY, WAY down the list..............and that's all I am gonna say

73% Obama for me. Then Clinton with 72% (which kindof irks me) and John Edwards tied with Dodd at 71%. Ron Paul was the last on my list with 20%.

 

[96 GTS]

First for me was Obama with 92%, then John Edwards and Hillary Clinton with 87% and 86% respectively. Ron Paul was second to last with 24%.

2008 Presidential Candidate Matching Quiz

lol Mine looked like yours with the all the democrates at the top! ^^ So I guess I'm Democratic ^^

 

[Lilavati]

The results surprised me somewhat, but they shouldn't really . . . the questions are simplistic enough that it ends up skewing the results. In a lot of cases, I didn't like most of the answers. Oh well, that's politics.

 

[96 GTS]

It surprised me too, but there's a whole lot of questions I didn't agree with any of the answers, so I'm sure that changes things.

 

[Oski]

My top two were Romney and Thompson, which I really like Thompson....hopefully he will win some of the southern states over in the primaries.

 

[MelissaCato]

57% Ron Paul
56% Tom Tancredo
53% John Edwards
53% Mike Gravel
52% Joe Biden
52% Mike Huckabee
51% Chris Dodd
51% Fred Thompson
50% Hillary Clinton
50% Mitt Romney
49% Barack Obama
47% Bill Richardson
47% Dennis Kucinich
44% John McCain
29% Rudy Giuliani

I didn't like the questions and some of the answers were turnspeak. Ohh well.
That was fun.

 

[GlassOnion]

Who the hell is Bill Richardson? Apparently I agree with 83% of what he does

 

[jess2416]

Mike Gravel was at the top of my list at 68%...

LOL I always thought I was kinda on the conservative side when it comes to the economy.. But that quiz seems to think I should vote for a democrat. I think I will, 'cause the quiz said so.

YES.............YOU MUST OBEY THE QUIZ.....OBEY THE QUIZ.........OBEY THE QUIZ!

LMAO! I know you are just kidding RD, I just had to use my hypno gif SOMEWHERE!

 

[Renee750il]

Well, maybe it's getting people to examine some of the other candidates . . .

 

[Beanie]

Not surprising... John McCain was the top for me. (OH NOES REPUBLICAN)
I don't think most of the other results were accurate, though. Particularly because Hillary was above Obama and Edwards both - ugh.

 

[Herschel]

I refuse to participate. I have issues with almost every question. For example:

9. What is your view on the national budget?
A balanced budget is a top priority. Make sure tax revenue matches spending.
A balanced budget is a top priority. Make deep cuts in spending to prevent deficits.
A balanced budget is not a top priority right now.

I believe that a balanced budget is a top priority, but I don't think we need more taxes to accomplish that.

WEll the way I saw the question was to be SURE not to spend MORE than they are taking in for taxes.......Not necessarily RAISE taxes to meet spending. But I agree with the second option anyway..........they need to stop spending so much on CERTAIN things in order to balance things out.
