#1 - Mike Huckabee
#2 - A scary midget
#3 - Rudy Giuliani

Huckabee was #1 even before I hit that tax reform slider.

If there were more social policy questions, Huck would be nowhere near #1.
 
1) Rudy Giuliani
2) Mitt Romney
3) Mike Huckabee

I guess I'm a republican, eh? I hate politics.
 
1) Mike Gravel
2) Sam Brownback
3) Fred Thompson

lol so everyone except Hilary, Obama, and Huckabee?
 
1) Rudy Giuliani
2) Mike Huckabee
3) John McCain
 
It gave me three people I would never vote for and the sliders made it worse.

There really weren't enough topic areas for me. Further proof there is no one for me to support in this election
 
How about, no? A bunch of guys I don't really like, including Rudy "9-11" Giuliani and Hucka-what?
 
1. Ron Paul
2. Rudy Giuliani
3. Duncan Hunter

What? I gave the most hawkish views on the war.
 
when taking that quiz, I realised how little I care about the "issues." What's more important to me is the decision-making process, how well you are to react to a crisis, whether the policies put in place are a transparent attempt to help your buddies, how much you are trying to shove your religious theology down our throats, how likely you are to put competent, thoughtful people in positions of responsibility, and how well you work with Congress. It's naive to try to describe a solution to Iraq in one sentence; what is clear, however, is that it was completely ineptness and irresponsibility that got us to this place--which again brings me to my opinion that the decision-making process itself is more important than trying to devise "solutions" that are nothing more than sound bites. I don't care one whit about the "immigration crisis," which is a made-up issue meant to draw attention away from the areas that really need attention, like global warming and health care.

Unfortunately, under the current administration, scientific findings by allegedly independent federal agencies have been infected by politics. Is it possible that man has not contributed to global warming? Maybe. I'd much, much rather overreact and be wrong than to do nothing and be wrong and destroy the planet, especially when emissions could be drastically reduced simply by changing the fuels that we use and giving cows some chewing gum.
 
Unfortunately, scientific findings (in the USA) for 60+ years have been infected by politics. That'd be when the atomic scientists got a "conscience" and tried to influence policy over whether they should be used.

That giant sucking sound is the taxpayers' money going into the pockets of allegedly independent scientists and the allegedly independent institutions they work for.

You don't see the conflict between these two statements?

"whether the policies put in place are a transparent attempt to help your buddies"

and

"scientific findings by allegedly independent federal agencies have been infected by politics"

So you'd rather have transparent (or not) policies put in place to help Gore's buddies (about 55% of the scientists). It's a pretty transparent appeal to a certain base of a certain party.

If you want to respond to this, do so in my blog please.
 
My number one guy was Huckabe. Thats who I was thinking of voteing for, but he dont have a snowballs chance to get nominated.

I'd appreciate it if you didn't ascribe opinions and viewpoints to me that I haven't expressed. Thanks.

However, to keep this back on topic, perhaps I should mention that I was thinking specifically about the FDA when I made that second statement.
 
Wow. Any other liberals here?

1) Barack Obama
2) Mike Gravel
3) Hillary Clinton

Ron Paul was a close 4th
 
1) Mitt Romney
2) Rudy Giuliani
3) Fred Thompson

Figures...
 
1. Duncan Hunter
2. John McCain
3. Mitt Romney


I was for McCain from the beginning. (even before he ran)
 
1) Dennis Kucinich
2) Mike Gravel
3) Barack Obama
 
Kucinich
Gravel
Edwards
 
Clinton
Edwards
Beiden

Funny thing here is, I've been a huge Barack supporter, and he was #4 for me.
 
I don't understand what most of the things (e.g. Tax Reform) means, but I'd quite like to take the quiz. Anyone wanna give me a brief description of each?
 
Tax Reform.

The US tax code is 800,000 plus pages. Very difficult to understand - though for most people, it's simple enough to fill out the 1040ez form (it's like one page).

The idea of tax reform is to scrap the current tax code and implement something in its place that's easier and makes more sense. Like a national sales tax or a flat tax.
 
I think that would me more like the UK, 17.5% VAT on everything, plus different taxes on different goods. E.g. petrol is something like 200% :S
 
Apparently, I'm a republican.

Now give me my gun and get your mexican ass off my lawn. oh wait, what's that? you're not done watering it? well, then finish off and get your ass off my lawn.

i guess i value experience too much to be a Barack fan.
 
#1 - Chris Dodd
#2 - Barack Obama
#3 - Mitt Romney

But most of the issues didn't mean that much to me. I tended to vote for things the way I'd want the UK to be, or what I like about the UK (e.g. NHS), but I had to adjust some sliders purely to make sense of it all. For example, I value experience, but don't mind between House of Reps, Senate of Governor. I just don't think being in the military or running a business ought to make you a good candidate for President. More than anything, though, I value good Education for the most powerful person in the world. They should be able to pronounce E-CON-O-MY!!!!!!!!!!!!
