This is neat. You answer 11 questions and on a scale of 1 to 4 how important each issue is to you. It will then give you a score for several Republican and Democratic candidates.

Couple of surprises for me there. The Democrat I least agreed with was John Edwards, but I like him the (very nearly) most. The Republican I agreed with the most was Guliani, and I hate him the most.

The rest was pretty much what I expected.

My most favored candidate was Bill Richardson.

Rather unexpected...

In order from best to worst:

Dennis Kucinich
Chris Dodd
John Edwards
Barack Obama
Hillary Clinton
Mike Gravel
Joe Biden
Bill Richardson
Rudy Giuliani
Mitt Romney
Ron Paul
Sam Brownback
Jim Gilmore
John McCain
Duncan Hunter
Mike Huckabee

No big surprises there. There's a few that I'd shift around a little (for example, Brownback's opposition to the death penalty really isn't enough to overcome the fact that he scares the hell out of me in a way that McCain does not), but the general trend is certainly accurate.

Never heard of either Dodd or Gravel, but Kucinich’s name rings a bell; even if I can’t pronounce it for the life of me. Don’t know if I’d actually vote for any of the above though. Dodd supported NAFTA and seems to have shady connections with the accounting industry.

And Kucinicinicinicinich looks weird.

Could a kind soul with a better grasp of Dodd’s politics shed some light on the situation? Never herd him discussed on NS:G.

Also, I only spotted Democrat and Republican presidential hopefuls. I’d more likely vote for a doomed third party.

what about people who arent going to utilize their right to vote? :'(

also Giulani and then Kucinich. ???

Ironically enough, the only candidate who apparently has the same position on Iraq as me is Tancredo, the candidate I would be least likely to vote for if I were American, and not Scottish. It's the only thing I agree with him about.

...

On reviewing his website, Tancredo and I do not share the same position on Iraq, or the general conduct of legal warfare. He is my political nemesis. We do not share anything in common.


EDIT: After trying the test again, tabbing whether or not I found the questions relevant to me, I recalculated my scores. Apparently I agree with Tancredo more than McCain now. That's hard to believe.

You know most vote for the one's that are most like themselves. ;)

I would point out that the poll itself was horridly narrow, none of the immigration "solutions" met what I want or would prefer. The abortion question is stupid because frankly I don't care (but am pro-choice). Too many binary answers and not enough nuance.

Third parties aren't big enough to have a primary. They usually choose their candidates, like the Repubs & Dems used, to at the convention. They won't be in play until after the primaries and then only if there is a strong candidate.:(

I'm surprised McCain was in the top 10 let alone #1 for me I wouldn't for for him in a million years. At least I can take solace in the fact I didn't agree with any of the bastards as much as some of you. Not as low as I would have liked, but oh well. Nice to know no1 agrees with me. I wonder where they get5 the candidate's positions from. I went and checked Romney's site and it claims hes against abortion, however it seems the test thinks its the other way around. Clearly they're just playing with our minds.

I didn't take the time to check the positions of other candidates, maybe somebody also sees a discrepancy in their results?

Giuliani was in the middle for me but I'm seriously considering voting for him if he wins the Republican nomination. Maybe you should vote for him also as your views are quite similar to his.

Don’t let the Liberal Left leanings on this forum intermediate you. You know they only win debates by out shouting those with more moderate political views.

Certainly there’s no socialist politicians with any even faint grasp of power. But I’d be surprised if there wasn’t a significant minority of socialist, communist, anarchist, etc., Americans. In fact, America has quite a long history of producing left and right libertarians.

Which politician in the two main parties is a socialist? Certainly none of the candidates for Presidential nomination are socialist, and they seem to cover all the different wings of their respective parties.

You can’t re-define what a socialist is due to prevailing political climate; socialism is a fairly clearly defined political movement. I recognise that America is generally more right-authoritarian than the rest of the Western world, but ‘moving’ the centre of politics to the right doesn’t make those left of centre automatically socialist.

If the ‘centre’ of the American political scene was GWB, Hillary wouldn’t suddenly become an anarchist, simply because she was to the left of that centre. An anarchist is defined by their opposition to states, not their position on some sliding scale of politics. A socialist is much the same.

This kind of highlights the weirdness of having a sliding centre; those on the far left economic scale don’t suddenly become more to the right just because the majority of people are. American politicians are, in the majority, right-authoritarian. But this doesn't 'slide' the centre to the right; it just means most are right of the centre.

It does take a bit more than a slight raise in taxes, you realize?

Does Socialized Medicine qualify? Does giving $5,000.00 to every child born in the county qualify?

We can't really just claim our own standards on the meanings of socio-political positions, can we?

In terms of your political system; Yes. In terms of some other political system; No.

Does Socialized Medicine qualify? Does giving $5,000.00 to every child born in the county qualify?

uh, no. Understand, yes, it has the word socialized in it, and it may well be a socialist policy, but you cannot define a person by a single view they hold.

well, unless you're some kind of single-issue thing. :confused:

I choose Clinton, just to piss off the OP :)

Damn him.

Gabba gabba, we accept you, we accept you, one of us!
Gabba gabba, we accept you, we accept you, one of us!

Edwards? Obama?
AFAIK, the only vaguely socialistic policies that either Edwards or Obama support are universal health care. However, Edwards doesn’t seem to support fully universal healthcare, and Obama hasn’t been too forthcoming with his UHC proposals.

Other than that, they both share fairly typical Democrat stances. Neither support full universal education, nor do they support the de-privatisation of national industries, etc. Both seem to fully support free marketerism.

So neither could be truly called ‘socialist’.

SNIP...If the ‘centre’ of the American political scene was GWB,...

My idea of a "centrist" was Reagan. A former Democrat who became a Republican. Not to far to the left, not to far to the right. He was the "peoples" President. Another "centrist" I can remember was Truman. He was a Democrat, but he didn't hesitate to take on the unions and his "The Buck Stops Here" is the same idea as I Take Responsibility. Those were the greatest Presidents in my lifetime. I'd like to see another one of them in office.

The only candidates so far that I can see that come close to either one of them is Giuliani or Thompson, and I'm leaning toward the former even though I can't vote in the Republican primary.

Okay, see here. Why are the democrats implied to be the left?

At one time the Democratic party was not to the left nor was the Republican party to the right. At one time the Democrats were for the working man, the unions, that type of thing. Now the Democrats are for taking money away from those who have a little bit more than others and giving it to the others.

At one time the Republicans were for fiscal responsibility and a small government. Now the Republicans are for pork spending, and doing whatever is needed to get re-elected.

Both parties are now for one thing. Themselves and the hell with the people. :mad:

The centre of the economic political scale isn’t determined by the middle-ground between the two opposing political parties, nor by the political views of the most popular politician. Reagan, it’s safe to say, was a President with right-authoritarian political views. That he is popular with many of Americans heavily suggests that the general American political stance leans towards the right-authoritarian.

At one time the Democratic party was not to the left nor was the Republican party to the right. At one time the Democrats were for the working man, the unions, that type of thing. Now the Democrats are for taking money away from those who have a little bit more than others and giving it to the others.

At one time the Republicans were for fiscal responsibility and a small government. Now the Republicans are for pork spending, and doing whatever is needed to get re-elected.
A lot of the above is merely loaded language, not descriptions of left/right political views. However, being “for the working man, the unions” is very much a trait of the left, while “fiscal responsibility” (which I take to mean ‘limited taxes and public spending’) and “small government” are very much traits of the right. Neither strong support for unions and the working class, nor small government and minimum public spending could accurately be described as centrist policies.

I’m afraid you can’t just pick and choose what political policies you like and call that the ‘centre’.

Ayn Rand for pres.

Kucinich 63%. Which is odd because I actually support Gravel a bit more, but it says I have no disagreements with Kusinich but 3 with Gravel. Personally I wish those 2 would find a common ground and team up, there's already too few liberal leftists in the Democratic party, its not helping to divide them more between those 2 candidates.

Fear my ability to match well to a social democrat and a Libertarian capitalist simultaneously. Soon I will shed the ideological chains of mortal existence and be as pure energy. I couldn't provide an answer for the Immigration issue, though; there isn't any anti-fence, anti-guest worker program, pro-amnesty, "security" is spelled f-n-o-r-d (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fnord) option.

EDIT: Oops! Dennis Kucinich's plan to ban handguns (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dennis_Kucinich#Plan_to_ban_handguns) means Ron Paul takes the lead! The quiz doesn't consider firearms, and such a plan has zero chance of ever passing in the United States, but still. This Birkenstock-wearing hippy liberal leftist reserves the right to keep and bear arms, thank you very much (yes, in fact, we do exist).

Loaded, to the point where it's almost useless.

It suggests Clinton and Obama for me as equal options... but Kucinich is only two points behind, and the issues I would disagree with him on, are less important than the ones I would disagree with the other two on.
