[QUOTE]Have you guys taken that quiz where it analyzes your political beliefs and tells you who you side with the most? I like to do them to make sure I'm voting for someone who I *actually* support, not just who I think I should be voting for. My #1 match was surprisingly Barack (I thought it would be someone a little more liberal), closely followed by Jill Stein from the Green Party.

I side 84% with Jill Stein (Green Party)-on science, the environment, foreign policy and social issue.

83% with Obama-on science, economic issues, foreign policy, social and environmental issues

76% with Gary Johnson (this really surprised me)-on foreign policy, science, immigration, healthcare, and social issues

23% with Romeny-on no major issues

Letstrythis1001 · October 2012

Obama 1st and Ron Paul 2nd, which doesn't surprise me. I honestly really like a lot of what Ron Paul has to say.

jorja86 · October 2012

I would like to add; I firmly believe a lot of what Obama set out to do is dependent on a two term presidency. I think he's spent this term laying the groundwork (while in the midst of dealing with an economic crisis), and if he gets a new term, he could accomplish a lot. I'm also interested to see what he does as a president who is not worried about reelection.

It's been a few months since I took the quiz, but my results were pretty much identical. Neat.

thejucheidea · October 2012

A big reason I don't like Romney:

leia1979 · October 2012

I got Jill Stein (89%) though I'd never heard of her before today. Too bad she doesn't stand a chance (a comment on our two-party system, not her). Then Gary Johnson and Barack Obama, both at 75%. I did get 54% for Romney, primarily on economics.

I also got a 66% match with California voters. Funny, it's like I live there.

SKP82 · October 2012

1) What shoes are you wearing today?

Black strappy Aerosole wedges (Katniss knows the ones)

2) How are you wearing your hair today?
I wore my hair in a low pony today.

3) What do you have going on this weekend coming up?
I am having some girlfriends over on Sunday for a Stella & Dot party! Really looking forward to it.

4) Did you watch the debate last week?
I did.

5) Who do you plan to vote for in the presidential election next month?
My lips are zipped on this one.

6) Does it bother you that there is no (NHL) hockey?
Not really.

7) What's something you're looking forward to in the next month?
Going to OH to see a dear friend and my birthday!

8) What's something you're looking forward to in the next 3 months?
The holidays.

9) Are there any movies out that you want to see?
Taken 2

10) Is it "fall" where you live?
F*ck no, unfortunately.

11) Are you looking forward to winter?
I'm looking forward to it not being 90 degrees and humid, so yes.

12) What are you having/did you have for breakfast today?
I had a smoothie made of almond milk, spinach, and pineapple.

13) Do you like scary movies? If so, what is your favorite?
Newp.

14) Are you dressing up for Halloween?
Probably not this year since last year H and I dressed up as old people and our neighbors told me I looked so nice and "sophisticated." They didn't get it a all.

15) What's your favorite Halloween candy?
ALL THE CANDY.

Does anyone have a link to this quiz? It looks really interesting.

Peaseblossom55 · October 2012

I took the quiz way back, I rememeber my biggest percentage was for Obama. Sorry fizzy I don't remember where I came across the link.

thejucheidea · October 2012

I just took it again, and these are my results:

88% for Barack Obama (social, science, foreign policy)
88% for Gary Johnson (social, foreign policy, economic, environmental)
81% for Jill Stein (science, foreign policy, domestic policy)

And a mere 25% for Mitt Romney (economic, environmental)

And the quiz is at http://www.isidewith.com

[Deleted User] · October 2012

79% with Gary Johnson on economic, healthcare, immigration issues.
77% with Barack Obama on economic, foreign policy, environmental, immigration issues.
76% with Mitt Romney economic, domestic, social issues.

no wonder I'm having such a hard time really siding with one candidate!

Seriously! I can't believe how close your views are to two such different people.

it's ridiculous, really. but typical.

I saw a graph with candidates plotted on for their liberal/conservative and another type of general belief. Something like big/small government but I can't remember. Obama and Romnet were <em>really</em> close. There were candidates in all four quadrants, but O&R were right next to each other in the same quadrant.

GoldenPenguin · October 2012

My results:
87% Barack Obama on social, economic, science, environmental & domestic policy
78% Jill Stein on economic, foreign policy, science, social & environmental
66% Gary Johnson on foreign policy & science
57% Mitt Romney on immigration

Sharing an equal amount of viewpoints with the two major candidates? WAY TO MANY AWKWARD COME OUT OF THAT.

Smooch711 · October 2012

I'm WAY late on this, but I wanna play! I've finally caught up with reading most of the threads while I was away.

1) What shoes are you wearing today? Sneakers, like every other day.

2) How are you wearing your hair today? Down and unstyled.

3) What do you have going on this weekend coming up? Hair cut Friday night, followed by some shopping. Going to an Oktoberfest Saturday with H. Then, maybe Apple Harvest Sunday. Definitely laundry in between. And hopefully putting away stuff.

4) Did you watch the debate last week? Nope.

5) Who do you plan to vote for in the presidential election next month? Obama.

6) Does it bother you that there is no (NHL) hockey? Yes and no. While, I don't watch it regularly, I do enjoy watching it when I do. And I love the idea of the Winter Classic. So I hope they're back in time for that.

7) What's something you're looking forward to in the next month? Thanksgiving. And hopefully getting our wedding pictures back.

8) What's something you're looking forward to in the next 3 months? Fixing up our apartment with our new stuff, getting old stuff out. And the holidays.

9) Are there any movies out that you want to see? Taken 2, Argo and Skyfall (out early November)

10) Is it "fall" where you live? Yes.

11) Are you looking forward to winter? No. We hardly got any snow last year, and I have a feeling we'll more than make up for it this year. I wouldn't mind it, if I didn't have to go to work.

12) What are you having/did you have for breakfast today? Apple Jacks.

13) Do you like scary movies? If so, what is your favorite? Like a few have said, I prefer the pyschological stuff more than the gory stuff. No favorite though.

14) Are you dressing up for Halloween? Probably not. I'm actually not a fan.

15) What's your favorite Halloween candy? Anything chocolate, but those pumpkin-shaped Reese's taste better for some reason!!!

Pee k - Apple festival in PA. . . Apple Harvest in south central Pa about 2 hours from DC? You're in my neck of the woods.

tiger - Bills fan? How did that happen? Are you from the Buffalo area? I went to college in that area.

peekaboo2011 · October 2012

I just took the quiz:

92% with Obama on social, economic, foreign policy, domestic policy, environmental, and science issues.

77% with Jill Stein on social, foreign policy, environmental, and science issues.

61% with Rocky Anderson on social, economic, and environmental issues.

57% with Mittens on foreign policy, domestic policy, and immigration issues.

Who the hell is Rocky Anderson?
