Everyone on that chart is an authoritarian right winger,
except Kucinich and Gravel.

5. Are you trying to make believe the candidates took the test?
Or do you admit the grid you posted is purely personal speculation?

But anyway, a much more meaningful grid would have far more colored areas going from left to right, and again going from authoritarian to libertarian.
