The most fun pick-your-candidate quiz! Ever! It's quick, with just two stages of questions — the first stage requires you to distribute 20 points among a slate of issues depending on how important you think they are (4 points to the economy vs. 2 points for Social Security, etc.)

The second part features issue questions requiring answers on sliding scale of strongly agree to strongly oppose, and then presto! Your percentage of similarity to each and every candidate is calculated, no voter's pamphlet required. Let me know how you score!

wow! i think i am the only one on here who got ALL republican candidates? maybe? 76 - guiliani 70 - romney 67 - mccain i think it's because i don't approve of drug legalization or increasing taxes on really wealthy people. i'm not rich either - but i wish tax cuts were for lower classes. but a lot of wealthy people do work hard for it, people like my brother in law and sister who both grew up in lower middle class or lower class situations (my mother was a single mother with two kids when my sister grew up; my brother in law grew up in a less than favorable neighborhood and had little money) and now they have a lot of money. i don't think they should have to pay more because of their insanely hard work to get where they are.

I found this on another blog I read right after I took the quiz and was wondering who Mike Gravel was. http://www.matthewgood.org/2008/01/whos-mike-gravel/

I ♥ Kucinich. It's a shame. :( Barack is the closest realistic candidate with 68%.

I got Dennis Kucinich too :) (I have no idea who that is, but I'm not American so I guess that's kind of acceptable :OOPS: )

74% Obama, 73% Clinton, 70% Giuliani. I'm very moderate -- almost bordering on Libertarian (though I don't like Ron Paul) so I agree with the results.

I'm 94%(!) Dennis kucinich...who knew? Too bad a vote for him would be essentially wasted.

"John Edwards shares a 80% similarity with your beliefs"Radical. I love how they have that "find out why" link, too.

Another Dennis Kucinich!! I was lucky enough to hear him speak at the high school I was teaching at in 2004. He is AMAZING. I doubt he will ever be elected, but I still love him! :-)

Hey, three in a row Kucinich.

This was a good quiz, since it weighed the results. However, my results were similar to ones I'd seen on other quizzes, and unfortunately, it doesn't change some of the disagreements I have with the major contenders. I also got DK.

96% Kucinich and Gravel, 87% Obama. Fun times.

bailaoragaditana 5 years 18 weeks

I got Dennis Kucinich 89%, Mike Gravel 86%, Barack Obama 85% - fairly accurate, I suppose, since I'm an Obama supporter (I'm realistic enough to know that Kucinich will never be elected president :-p )

I took the quiz and found it to be inaccurate with it's information. Not so great.
