presidentmatch

02 Feb 2004

I took the quiz on presidentmatch.com to find my ideal candidate. The results were unsurprising:

Kucinich: 100%
Sharpton: 91%
Kerry: 81%
Dean: 79%
Clark: 76%
Edwards: 68%
Lieberman: 63%
Bush: 6%

I was surprised to see Edwards as low as he is, but looking at a comparison between his answers and mine, I can see why.

And, no, I can’t figure out where the 6% i have for Bush came from. Maybe something we both had “No Opinion” on.

Ha ha, I’m only 3% Bush. Probably because we both oppose immediate withdrawal of US troops from Iraq. Although for different reasons.

I also agree with Edwards even less than you do (60%), Kucinich the same, and everybody else more. Which I suspect really means that I agree with Kucinich less, and the rest of them are graded on a curve. Which would mean I agree with Edwards even less. Maybe.

What was the deal with that last page where it asked how important “Crime/Education” is to you? I think crime is important (in that I think the death penalty is barbaric), but I think education is the most important political issue our country has, and I don’t feel that way about crime. Oh well.

I didn’t understand that, either, or also how they lumped together “Economy/Environment”

I mean, I can understand how they are tangentally and in some cases directly related, but they are still two different things you could care about in very different proportions..
