Your Choice
You’re fortunate to have a computer and the right to vote. Please, try the “select a candidate” link. http://www.wqad.com/Global/link.asp?L=259460
It’s a very interesting exercise. You answer questions and then click the “find your candidate button” and the program selects the candidate whose position on the issues is most like your own. I was somewhat surprised by the results.
I’ve suspected that my views were unquestionable liberal, and this exercise proved it. I got a score of 69, because Dennis Kucinich wisely agreed with me on every issue. On the issues of Iraq and Immigration Chris Dodd dared to disagreed with me, for a score of 55. Next was Bill Richardson with a score of 52, because he oppose my views on the Death Penalty, Energy and the Line Item Veto. Senator Dodd and Gov. Richardson are in fact my top choices for president.
Clinton, Obama and Edwards had the audacity not agree with my positions on Iraq, Immigration and the Death Penalty. Clinton, Obama, Edwards and Gravel earned a score of 50, which was considerably higher than Giuliani’s score of 36 and Ron Paul’s score of 31.
The questions included:
What is your opinion on the war in Iraq?
What is your position on immigration?
Do you believe the 2001 and 2002 tax cuts should be made permanent?
Should federal funding of embryonic stem cell research be expanded?
Do you oppose the concept of universal health care in America?
Do you favor or oppose the concept of privatization of Social Security to a degree?
Do you favor or oppose giving the president a “line item” veto, such as, the ability to remove parts of a spending bill without needing to veto the bill.
Do you support federal assistance for the production of ethanol and/or biofuel as an alternative to oil?
Do you favor or oppose the use of the death penalty for certain crimes?
The exercise was all about my opinions and for you it’s all about your opinions. Power to the people!
