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.
You don't need to wonder. Those "who should I vote for" things have been around for quite a while and they don't change minds. The one on the CBC website said my parents should both vote liberal in the last election. They claimed the website was rigged and voted conservative anyway.

Though, as usual, the questions don't cover most of the issues I care about and the answers don't represent my beliefs well.

Isn't that where the Wisconsin dems fled when they refused to do their jobs?
Are you yammering on about this again? Wisconsin Dems exercised a parliamentary maneuver no better/worse than any other procedural hurdle available to savvy legislators. No worse than the two second vote staged by the Wisconsin Reps in passing their legislation. Don't like the rules used by the Wis Legislature? Then work to change them but quit whining already.

God you have to be a real winner to match up with Obomney. It takes some grade A first class mindfunking to get a slave to that level. The elite are certainly doing a good job wrecking this country and the minds of its serfs.


It is all a bunch of baloney anyway. Take this question for example: Should we limit federal funds to public schools that do not meet performance standards?

Federal government has absolutely no business whatsoever being involved in education. So really, how do I answer a question like that without being scored closer to Obomney or some other dumb socialist federalist bankster stooge?

But if you dont understand the constitution, and your mind is just a giant mess of crap wholly manufactured by corporate america, then you wont even realize how loaded and meaningless most of these questions are. People like that obviously will match up well with Obomney, the corporate fascist candidate.

Well I was specifically talking about corporate fascism. Corporate fascism is corporate power used to achieve classical definition of a fascist authoritarian state.

Fascism is totalitarianism, in this case implemented by corporations using the right of personhood of corporations as a shield. This shield, when abused, is what allows fascism to grow unchecked; to reach absurd levels where trillion dollars of damages to the economy are penalized only with millions of dollars in token fines. Thus the state is allowed to operate with impunity, because the state is really a group of corporations and those corporations have nothing to lose by committing crimes, except a small % of their profits.

Imagine how many banks would get robbed if the only penalty for getting caught was you have to give back 2% of what you steal. This is exactly where our government is now with respect to corporate crime. This ineffectual system of regulation was put in place by the corporations themselves. ie it was designed to be ineffective. Since the corporations run the government, it is only logical that they would make the laws such that their crimes would not ever be truly prosecuted.

Under corporate fascism, corporations control the political process, such as in america right now. Candidates are manufactured by corporations, and peddled by the corporate media, such as in america right now.

Dumb sheeple watch the corporate controlled tv that tells them to vote for Obomney, the ultimate product of a corporate fascist system.


"We are free to believe that this is the century of authority, a century tending to the 'right', a Fascist century. If the 19th century was the century of the individual (liberalism implies individualism) we are free to believe that this is the 'collective' century, and therefore the century of the State." - Benito Mussolini

Now you can certainly choose to blindly believe this is no fascist country. The supreme court just voted that the government can impose a fine/tax on anyone for pretty much any reason with this obamacare crap. Congress can constitutionally pass a law requiring each and every one of us to buy a new car every 5 years. And the govt could fine anyone $10000 if they fail to purchase a new car every 5 years. Somehow that is constitutional now. So this country is gone. It is even deader now than when NDAA passed. Even deader than when the patriot act passed. Even Benito Mussolini himself has never amassed so much power into the hands of the state.

The corrupt fascist state has not exercised the full extent of its power, mainly due to the amount of guns owned by americans. But that does not mean it is not a fascist state. Legally, the power is there. They just need a reason to use it, liek another 9/11. Events like 9/11 dont create the fascist state, it is decisions like this recent supreme court decision that create the fascist state.

HINT: if you click on "select other options," you get to choose, from among other options in this question: "The federal government has no business being in education."

(which, frankly, is a preposterous notion--but it's the one you wanted)

I don't need any assistance to know who I am going to vote for this fall.

That would be Mr. Romney. Why, you may ask?


Because I am not black. I am not illegal. I do not support illegals. I am not in a public sector union. I do not live off the government's tit. I do not get welfare. I do not get unemployment payments. I do not get food stamps. I am not gay.

It is sad that all those groups that I just mentioned can't think for themselves.

Coincidentally, none of those apply to me either. I, however, will not be voting for Mr. Romney.

I'm assuming you will be voting for Mr. Obama. If that is correct.

That begs the question....Why?

Really, I would like to know.

"Identity politics" are the basest of politics. Shame on you for what you posted here. None of it should be relevant to your vote. You do not need to be any of these to side with the current president Obama over former governor Romney.

Really? It would seem that is his core base.

Are you planning to vote for Obama? If yes, why?
