Sure, I voted for Nader last time 'round, but only out of complete and utter disgust with the Reps & Dems.

The list doesn't make sense to me. First off, I put fiscal responsibility at "high" ("Regardless of increases or decreases, it is vitally important that federal spending and taxes are balanced.") and my list starts with a Green and then a bunch of Democrats? Yeah.

But I guess being anti-NRA, pro-abortion rights, and somewhat pro-environment knocks out the republicans, huh?

First off, the only Repubs they have are Bush and McCain - so seeing lots of Dems, etc. is natural. Second, they don't know the stance of every politician they have there so take all of this with a grain of salt. Take this....

General Wesley K. Clark
quote:
No confirmed positions on abortion, affirmative action, economic policy or health care. He’s on the record as opposing the trade embargo with Cuba. However he has made some telling statements. "I grew up in an armed forces that treated everyone as a valued member of the team," he said. "Everyone got healthcare, and the army cared about the education of everyone's family members. It wasn't the attitude that you find in some places, where people are fending for themselves and the safety net doesn't work."


So the General probably won't be the top guy on your list no matter what.
Incidentally, Lyndon H. Jr LaRouche doesn't even have any info. in his page - it's just a blank form.

So, in your list you should just assume those two guys are at the bottom.

The Dems and the Greens have the tendency to balance the budget. The republicans are usually the ones who are irresponsible.

Actually, from my observations, NO party has "the tendency to balance the budget." The Dems tax & spend, the republicans cut taxes and still spend (resulting in huge debt) and the Greens, as has been pointed out, have never had the chance, but I doubt they would be different.

Bastards! All of them! Viva la resistance! Or something.

US Representative Dennis J. Kucinich, a Democrat of Ohio

My top dem. 81% agreement

Bush had 100% agreement.


"His advocacy of a Department of Peace seeks not only to make nonviolence an organizing principle in our society, but to make war archaic. His is a powerful, ethical voice for nuclear disarmament, preservation of the ABM treaty, banning weapons in outer space, and a halt to the development of a 'Star Wars' - type missile defense technology."

--"Not many Lyndon LaRouche fans here, I see."

Even most Apolytoners have more sense than that.

In any case, Browne topped my list. No surprise there. A Democrat as number four was a surprise, as were two and three (Bush and Buchanan, not likely). Even less likely are Sharpton, Nader and Hillary as 7-9.

Not a great selector, it only got two out of the top ten correct. It also seems to be heavily over-representing Nader. I know it's a fitting choice for some of you, but come on... Floyd and myself?

I think that if it asked more questions about environmentalism and corporations and the like, Nader would drop a lot on many of our lists.

Also it's got virtually nothing but Democrats. You're bound to have a few in the top ten.

Nobody seems to agree with Gen. Clark. Must not be included in the calculations. You'd think though, that he might have a pretty good shot in real life, just on account of his stars.

Put an end to popups!

Nader in first, as a 100% match. All but two people in my top 20 are Dems (the two non-Dems being Nader and the Socialist candidate). Browne finished 22nd, at 34%. LaRouche dead last.

Bizzarely, McCain finished below Bush and Buchanan.

Got spare money?

Somehow you end up with either Buchanon or LaRouche in your top 20, no matter how you answer.

Bush topped my list, followed by a Democrat I don't know who isn't running, and Browne.

Suffering from ads?

Yeah, this selector is kind of screwy... while I agree with the Nader for my #1, Howard Dean is the candidate I most agree with. And he's like 11th... and he's below Jesse Jackson on this list; Jesse Jackson is despicable 4sshole, BTW.

Actually, from my observations, NO party has "the tendency to balance the budget." The Dems tax & spend, the republicans cut taxes and still spend (resulting in huge debt) and the Greens, as has been pointed out, have never had the chance, but I doubt they would be different.

Bastards! All of them! Viva la resistance! Or something.

-Arrian


Of the Presidents in the White House over the past, oh, 24 years, only a Democrat balanced the budget and reduced the deficit and national debt.

He did that with a killer economy though, one propelled by a stock market bubble. Any damn fool could balance a budget if he's got that kind of income.

Cart before the horse. Clinton's decision to pay down the debt was instrumental to the killer economy.

Other presidents before him *cough*Reagan*cough* also experienced great economies, but only ballooned the debt further.
