I know ( IC ) don't like getting into what people think
about the government.( To easy to trouble get started )
Which I agree, But check this out.
It's a quiz on who you should vote for I did it thinking, ok this is
got to be a joke.
But after taking it, It came up with who I would vote for
and it was right.
Try it

That's a rigged POS poll and doesn't give correct answers. It tells me I would rather have Hillary or Obama about 80% of the time no matter how I change the answers.

I'd rather cut off my nads than vote for Hillary. :eek:

That's a rigged POS poll Not sure about rigged, but it's very superficial. It seems to me the questions are based on the what the candidates might have said rather than their actual records. The poll has about the same value and validity as US television news.

With that said, it did peg me correctly with a couple issues, but the 'top choice' at 75% was someone I consider to be odious (shall remain unnamed).

[Crazy Joe]

This (http://www.selectsmart.com/president/2008.html)one is much more unbiased...

[Black Hawk]

Both give me Obama with 75% but I didn't like some of the questions.

[Thrax]

This quiz looked at me funny.

[Nomad]

This has bad associations and answers, for example there is no 'Increase troop' option for solutions to the Iraq war, which would give a clear advantage to McCain.

[csimon]

I think it's a load of poop. Did anyone not have Obama as the highest percentage?

edit:/ on second thought I withdraw my opinion.

[Leonardo]

Did anyone not have Obama as the highest percentage? I assume you are referring to the second quiz? If so, on the list of 31, Obama for me ended up 24th (but ahead of Clinton and Edwards). First (after theoretical favorite) was Alan Keyes, which made me smile. I have always admired him, but did not even know he had attempted a run this time. First major candidate on my results was John McCain. Frankly, I haven't been a big fan of his. Maybe I should relook his record and his proposals. Of the major candidates still running, John Edwards was near the bottom.

Some minor surprises here for me, but very minor. I must confess though, some of the names I did not know had ever made a serious nod at running. Some other names I did not even know.

. Theoretical Ideal Candidate (100%)
2. Ron Paul (66%) Information link
3. Kent McManigal (campaign suspended) (66%) Information link
4. Barack Obama (63%) Information link
5. Wayne Allyn Root (63%) Information link
6. Christopher Dodd (withdrawn) (60%) Information link
7. Al Gore (not announced) (58%) Information link
8. Dennis Kucinich (withdrawn) (55%) Information link
9. Alan Augustson (campaign suspended) (54%) Information link
10. Michael Bloomberg (says he will not run) (52%) Information link
11. Mike Gravel (51%) Information link

Not bad. I do like ron paul but the media killed his campaign. And after Paul I'm liking Obama. It's kinda nice to have a candidate on both parties. Never seemed to care much about the parties, they both have good and bad.

[Crazy Joe]

Yea, the first one gave me Obama no matter what I selected... The one I posted gave me the results I expected and did dramatically change if I changed answers...

[GHoosdum]

Both gave me McCain in 1st place and Ron Paul either tied for 1st or in Second. Obama and Clinton were near the bottom in both.

The second quiz gave me Colbert near the top of the results, and he probably would have been higher if I had selected "broadcast commentator" as being a possible qualified candidate. This makes me chuckle; how can we really know what his true political beliefs are?
