    • Does Red/Blue matter? I agree with both and disagree with both. What happened to, "for the people." I see now that the front runner is the one that raises the most money. If you don't raise a lot of money then you are nothing, and nobody wants to hear what you have to say. It SUCKS!!!

      that's the thing, it's platforms that i don't care about. it's things i don't consider issues at all in the candidacy.
      and i never said Ron Paul wasn't on the list.

      dontipo:

      there should definitely be more than two parties. it would create less of an us or them mentality in politics. of course with the current media influence it probably won't happen.

    • Do you think that there should be more political parties?
      Republicans versus Democrats are a monopoly

      Bush changed the world forever and he is done next year like nothing ever happened. Bush says, "peace" and see you later......

      We are scared of the gun.
      Who would lead the new world? because we need a stop on destruction, construction, and killing lives.
      "money talks but it don't sing or dance"

    • donkey, if you mean that the quiz tallied your favor for another candidate over the one you currently support, perhaps that tells you something.

      That's what this quiz is all about, judging blindly based on the candidates' platforms, rather than on their personalities.

      IT did not pick the other candidates. YOU picked them. congrats.

    • it didn't ask any real voter questions
      just the same propaganda questions you here a thousand times
      it ended up picking a bunch of candidates i don't support instead of Ron Paul, who i support.

    • This was very helpful. Before taking this quiz I hadn't heard the various issues or responses of the canidates and its really helped me to decide how I should vote. It also made me realize that I should look more into the issues at hand. I was confused at times by the language used by the canidates and I want to correct that before the elections.
