Presidential Candidates?

Just a stupid website, I admit - but it's still kinda fun.

Here's what I ended up w/:

Bush - 100%
Edwards - 64%
Kerry - 45%
Dean - 45%
Sharpton - 31%
Kucinich - 28%

The questions seemed a bit slanted, though.

It was on here a couple weeks ago. Thanks anyway

This was kind of interesting. Some of the questions were a little too broad but I got the following results. Still can't figure out what I could possibly agree with Sharpton on though.

Bush - 100%

Edwards - 53%

Kerry - 47%

Dean - 40%

Sharpton - 22%

Kucinich - 21%

My list had only two people.

Bush 100%
Kerry 59%

Now i'm going to answer all the questions the wrong way and see what I get.

[stork]

It as I suspected;

1 Sharpton 100%
2 Kucinich 89%
3 Dean 88%
4 Kerry 88%
5 Edwards 80%
6 Bush 43%

Go figure, this page is sponsored by AOL.

1 Dean Score: 100%
2 Kerry Score: 96%
3 Edwards Score: 96%
4 Kucinich Score: 90%
5 Sharpton Score: 86%
6 Bush Score: 84%

Obviously this search engine is using a two-sided approach, whereas I responded to each question as a Libertarian, not a Republican or Democrat. As far as I'm concerned, none of these six are qualified for the office. Leave it up to good ol' AOL to create a poorly made and inaccurate waste of web space.

Note: Once the primary elections have concluded, we'll add third-party candidates to the guide.

Did you see this Aught Six? This might help explain your answers.

Yep, I saw it after the fact. Still, I have to wonder exactly how they'll do that, and which third-party candidates they'll add. Obviously there's a lot more to politics than just a handful of vague questions. We'll just have to wait and see.
