Site contains a simple survey that will line you up with the Presidential Candidate you have the most in common with. I ended up with my top two of 94% Ron Paul and 91% Gary Johnson with like 50% with Romney(lol wut?) only 9% with Obama(This one surprised me more than the Romney @ 50% which was still a shocker.) Post your results. Also, some of the sections are expandable so don't forget to look at like Foreign Issues and answer the extra questions.

I did this a couple weeks back. I'm 84% President Barack Obama. The next two it lists are people I've never even heard of Jill Stein and Kent Mesplay. I'm 43% Ron Paul and 37% Mitt Romney. Those both surprise me that I'm even that close. Then again with Mitt Romney's record of flip flopping I'm sure I'll be 12% side with him one week and 63% another week before the election is over.

Wouldn't this be an interesting method of selecting the President... !@#$ straight voting, select your issues and the most compatible candidate still in the race gets your vote.

I wonder how many people who blindly hate a candidate for no good reason would change how they picked certain issues simply because they knew that candidate felt a certain way. There's certainly enough partisan rage out there that this wouldn't surprise me.

It would be a much better way to elect leaders.

Johnson - 87%
Paul - 83%
Romney - 74%
Obama - 63%

Wisconsin voters - 87%
American voters - 87%

Libertarian - 86%
Republican - 74%
Democratic - 63%
Green - 50%

Overall, I found two things funny about this site:

1. Romney. He's had almost every position on every issue.

2. It showed a pic of Minnesota next to "Wisconsin voters".

Obama - 93%
Paul - 64%
Romney 37%

(I am omitting the candidates I've never heard of, Jill Stein and Kent Mesplay.)

93% Democratic
86% Green
65% Libertarian
37% Republican

I'm not convinced that such a short quiz yields meaningful results, but regardless that's where I came out.

Supposedly I side the most with Jimmy McMillan (the Rent is Too Damn High guy) on health care. Hoo boy . . .

So you are saying it doesn't give 100% Romney every time no matter what you answer? There must be something wrong.
