This is actually a very well designed questionnaire because it provides many options for qualifying your answers beyond simply "yes" and "no".

Pretty good poll with the exception of hte gun control question. The only answers they allowed were either maintaining or increasing gun control. There was no choice to repeal laws already on the books.

Oddly enough, Ron Paul didn't come up at all on my results, only Gary Johnson.

Also, at the bottom of some sections, you can expand it for some additional questions.

The problem with this poll is I see a lot of you getting high marks for Romney. Most conservatives who take this poll will be reinforced that Romney is their man, until he is elected POTUS and changes his mind on every single one of them.

I put it here on GSUS as general interest, and I don't expected it to influence anyone's vote here, or whether they choose to vote at all. As for "regular people" (not GSUS), they are going to vote for either Romney or Obama. So the fact that it may re-inforce conservative votes for Romney isn't necessarily a bad thing, unless you think swaying them to Obama is a more desirable result. One of those two clowns is going to be the next president. Perhaps if Ron Paul shows up with respectable numbers on some of their quiz results, it might help register in people's brains that there are potentially other options besides the two ass-hats that the banker-run Democrat and Republic parties feed them.

RP did not show up in my results at all either! He's not even on the list when I click the link that says "show all candidates". Odd, right? Wouldn't RP be one in the list of "All Candidates"?

For me -
92% Gary Johnson
85% Virgile Goode
75% Mitt Romney

Where's Ron Paul? :confused:

Hmmm. That does seem strange, especially if he didn't even show up in the "All Candidates" list. Did anyone else experience this?

I just took the quiz on my other computer. I know that my IP probably registers, but if the programmers had only dealt with cookies, maybe I'd get a fair shake. Long shot, but still, for the heck of it. So no, still no sign of Ron Paul. And something I noticed . . . when it's "calculating" all of the heads of the candidates appear and grow larger while it's "thinking", but there's no Ron Paul there either.

I think RP was taken out of the equation.

Edit: Can any of you who rated with Ron Paul please try to take the quiz again? I really think they took RP out of the quiz.

Gary Johnson apparently thinks like 96% of me. Obummer has 13% of my thinking capacity!

It is designed to provide the participant with the illusion that his opinion is of consequence, thus legitimising the (s)elections.

No it is not. It is just a fucking quiz, and most likely Romney if selected will abandon most of his current opinions for the greater evil. If anything the quiz may open up some people's minds that they should look into other candidates. That better represent their opinions than turd sandwich left or right! It will not have anything to do with the diebold selection anyway! May the greater Zionist win!
