Test your liberal credentials here:

[Lefty48197]

I heard some of the guys at work taking this quiz online. It asks your opinion on several topics, and asks you to rank your level of interest as strongly support, support, oppose, or strongly oppose. At the end of the test, it shows how you match up against Bush, Cheney, Kerry, all of the other Democratic primary candidates, Nader, candidates from the Green Party, Constitution Party, Reform Party, and the Libertarian Party.
Here's the link:
http://www.issues2000.org/quizeng/XPresMatch2004/start.asp
I got a laugh out of it, because I matched up with Bush absolute last, and Cheney second to last. (the Constitution Party edged them out). My top matches were: 1) C. M. Braun 2) Bob Graham 3) John Edwards 4)Nader (not to worry...) 5) Al Sharpton 6) John Kerry 7) Howard Dean, 8)David Cobb (Green), 9)P. Camejo (reform), 10)Richard Gephardt, 11)Wes Clark, 12)Mike Badnarik (Libertarian), 13)Dennis Kucinich, 14)Mike Peroutka (Constitution Party), 15) Dick Cheney (Idiot Party), 16) George Bush (Moran Party).

1. Sharpton 68%
2. Kucinich 68%
3. David Cobb 63%
4. Nader 63%
5. Mosley-Braun 60%
6. Kerry 60%

I'm with Sharpton 80% on personal but only 55% on economic. I'm with Kucinich 65% on personal and 70% on economic.

LOL....with Kerry I'm 75% on personal, but only 45% on economic.

I'm probably one of the most liberal people on this site (and that's saying something), so the results are not suprising.

[Eugene]

8. Nader, but I'm voting for Kerry

My top 10 were very close.

1. Ralph Nader
2. John Kerry (close second)
3. Carol Moseley-Braun, Bob Graham (tie)
5. Sharpton, Edwards, Kucinich, Gephardt (tie)
10. Wesley Clark

And last, Dick Cheney at %0.

:dem:

[no name no slogan]

9. Top 5 are:

1) David Cobb
2) Al Sharpton
3) Dennis Kucinich
4) Ralph Nader
5) Carol Moseley-Braun

...which makes sense. I voted for Green Party presidential candidates in 1996 & 2000, and supported Kucinich all the way to the convention.

But that's in the past, and now I'm with Kerry/Edwards, of course!

[serryjw]

10. MY top 3

Kucinich ( I was a state delegate)
kerry
Cobb

NO surprise. I know my political ideology. I vote/support accordingly.

[welshTerrier2]

11. 3-way tie: Nader, Braun, Kucinich

then Sharpton and then Kerry ...

finishing in a dead even tie for last place: bush and cheney ...

btw, Edwards finished near the bottom just a little better than Lieberman ...

what surprised me was that neither Cobb nor Camejo fared very well ... could it be that I'm not as Green as I thought I was ??

after this election, I'm officially a free agent in search of a party ... what's the latest on that progressive movement that Kucinich and Dean were starting ?? maybe i'll join up with them ...

[no name no slogan]

22. We're still around

....to continue the fight on November 3 for universal health care, a repeal of the Patriot Act, Fair Trade agreements, civil/marriage rights for all, and a host of other progressive issues-- no matter who wins on November 3.

Visit www.pdamerica.org for details. Chances are you may already have a state organization in place! :thumbsup:

[JimmyJazz]

12. Wow - Van Aulken isn't on the list, so I got Sharpton as my first choice!

Then Kerry, Nader,Kucinich and Edwards. Odd, because in reality Edwards was actually my first choice :)

[DrWeird]

13. Cool. I'm Al Sharpton.

Kerry's next.

[UrbScotty]

14. Kucinich, Cobb, Sharpton, Kerry, Edwards

Badnarik, Camejo, Nader, Braun, Peroutka, Gephardt, Clark, Cheney, Lieberman, Graham, Dean, Bush.

Who did I support in the Caucus? Dean!

[Jokinomx]

15. I ended up with Carol M.B... also... at 55%

Followed by John Kerry - 53%
Ralph Nader- 48%
Dennis Kucinich- 48%
Michael Badnarik- 45%
Al Sharpton- 45%
John Edwards- 45%

Several others.....
then


down to these final
two.....

Big Dick Cheney- 28%
bushwipe- 13%


:kick:

[scottcsmith]

16. I'm a Deaniac!

I was told once by a friend that they thought my political views most closely matched Howard Dean. It looks like that hasn't changed. My top 10:

1) Howard Dean
2) Bob Graham
3) Carol Moseley-Braun
4) Dick Gephardt
5) John Edwards
6) Ralph Nader
7) John Kerry
8) Joe Lieberman
9) Mike Badnarik (Libertarian)
10) Dick Cheney!

And my bottom match:
George W. Bush!

[WoodrowFan]

17. Kucinich???

Kucinich??????

[TroubleMan]

25. I don't personally know your views, but why are you surprised?

If you look at just the issues, Kucinich most closely matches a large majority of DUer's beliefs (or at least what they say they believe).

I know that there are all types on DU, and it's not fair to paint any group with such a broad generalization, but look at Kucinich's position, then look at what most of the people on DU say....they're very close.

[WoodrowFan]

26. cause

Because I didn't like him that much. Was much more for Clark or Kerry. I'm not unhappy about it, just surprised.

[Huckebein the Raven]

18. My List:

1.) Moseley-Braun
2.) Sharpton
3.) Kerry
4.) Clark
5.) Nader (??)

-I thought Kucinich and Dean would be higher on my list. I voted for Dean in the primaries.

[JohnKleeb]

19. ok here goes

2. Carol Moseley Braun
3. Dennis Kucinich
4. John Kerry
5. Ralph Nader

17. Dick Cheney
Not surprised Kerry is showing up in mostly everyone's top 5 btw.

[AlFrankenFan]

20. Ok! Sounds fun! .............1) Howard Dean

[Ron Green]

21. HA HA it didn't work...."Microsoft cursor error" or some BS...

there should have been an issue such as: "Force Microsoft to make a good product or discorporate."

[mvd]

23. My top 5

1. Nader :puke:
2. Carol Moseley-Braun
3. Kucinich
4. Sharpton
5. Kerry

Bottom 3:

Michael Peroutka
Dick Cheney
And last - Bush

[Lefty48197]

24. I should have read it more closely:

I actually have Braun, Graham, and Edwards tied for #1. Kerry, Sharpton, Nader, and Dean are then tied, followed by Cobb, then Clark, then Camejo and Gephardt (tied), Kucinich and Badnarik (tied), followed by the last three in order.

[RaleighNCDUer]

27. Top of my list was (I can almost not say so) Nader. But that doesn't

mean I ever thought he was an option. 2nd was Kucinich, who was my 1st choice in the primaries. Dead bottom, Cheney.

It's nice to be vindicated.

[philosophie_en_rose]

28. Bush loses; just like he will on november 2.

1. Gephardt
2. Clarke
3. Moseley-Braun
4. Cobb
5. Kerry
6. Badnarik
7. Nader
8. Sharpton
9. Kucinich
10. Lieberman
11. Camejo
12. Graham
13. Edwards
14. Dean
15. Peroutka
16. Cheney
17. Bush

[dolo amber]

29. Nader

Fucking NADER?? :wtf:

I would be far more distraught by this however if my darling Wesley wasn't right up there as well...:loveya:


edit: I only had 50% w/Nader tho, and being as he was #1 I guess that means I don't much agree with any of them too damn much. Now THERE'S a news flash...:eyes:


...but f'real...fucking NADER???

[no name no slogan]

37. Don't be too suprised-- there's no "GOP Stooge" filter

truth be told, Nader is pretty good on the issues. He's against the Iraq war, for universal healthcare, against the war on drugs, and is very progressive on most issues.

The one thing this poll doesn't factor in is how much of a stooge a candidate is for the GOP. That's why Nader may rank up their on your ideology, but also why you'd never vote for him.

Nader was in my top 5, too, and I even voted for him in 1996 & 2000. But this year, I'm strongly for K/E.

[SarahB]

33. that was fun

V. interesting. My results were Braun, Kucinich, Kerry, Nader, Sharpton, and Clark was only in 6th place.

My original picks were Sharpton, then Clark.

I think part of it is education. Now that I know more about Kerry, I am extremely enthusiastic about him. During the primaries, the only "Yankee" I knew much about was Sharpton. I do know we had an extremely talented field of candidates.

It's amazing to see, by contrast, the dumb-*** folk put up by the GOP. We have so much talent, and they have so little.

[qnr]

34. I agree

Can't believe that I have a Gephardt and not a Kerry :shrug:

[mvd]

35. I have a question

Is there a glitch? I got 60% agreement on economic issues with Libertarian candidate Michael Badnarik, when it was definitely closer to 60% on social issues. I even took the test again to make sure I made no mistakes.

[qnr]

36. Don't know

I bet I messed up one or two, because I misread the question. There were a few that I caught and changed because I assumed I knew what they were asking and just gave a cursory glance at the question, and then reread it and saw they had phrased it in the opposite sense.

[Crunchy Frog]

38. I thought the quiz was pretty bogus.

If you notice, they even got the dates the candidates withdrew wrong.

[St. Jarvitude]

39. GWB - 100%

Kidding, kidding! Don't be so quick to click that "Alert" link ;)

Nader + Kucinich tied - 60%

Gephardt is just behind them at 55%... WTF?

Tied at 50% are Sharpton, CMB, and John Kerry.

I have 10% with * and Oilslick Dick only because we all have "No opinion" on the fairly loaded affirmative action question.

[JohnKleeb]

43. On Gephardt

If you're quite economically liberal, then Gep should be high for you. He's not that liberal on foreign policy but he's more liberal than he gets credit for.

[leftofthedial]
