Political Calculator


I think you'll enjoy this, if you haven't already seen it. Basically, you respond to a quickie poll about how you feel on about 20 issues. Then you move to the right and note whether each issue is of high, medium or low importance to you. Then you click the magic button and it tells you the presidential candidate that most closely matches your choices. It shouldn't take more than 5 minutes of your time. It also tells you which candidates are the farthest from your choices.

Take the poll here

It proved to be correct for me because based on my answers it came back saying I should support Dennis Kucinich who I am now supporting - until Al Gore enters the race. Here is how I fit with all of the candidates, both Democratic and Repignofascist - Fred Thompson never really had to wonder about my vote anyway!
