It's like SparkNotes for Political Candidates

So there's this handy-dandy political candidate chart thingy going around which I think is kinda rad. The chart calculates your stance on key political issues and let's you know which candidates share your views.

My results are as follows....

Kucinich 70 Death Penalty, Net Neutrality
Edwards 53 Patriot Act, Net Neutrality, Iran Sanctions, Iran - Military Action, Same-Sex Marriage
Clinton 50 Patriot Act, Border Fence, Net Neutrality, Iran Sanctions, Iran - Military Action, Same-Sex Marriage
Dodd 48 Patriot Act, Border Fence, Net Neutrality, Iran Sanctions, Iran - Military Action
Gravel 47 Death Penalty, No Child Left Behind
Biden 46 Patriot Act, Border Fence, Net Neutrality, Iran Sanctions, Same-Sex Marriage
Obama 39 Death Penalty, Patriot Act, Border Fence, Net Neutrality, Iran Sanctions, Same-Sex Marriage
Richardson 38 Assault Weapons Ban, Patriot Act, Net Neutrality, Iran Sanctions, Iran - Military Action, Same-Sex Marriage
McCain 4 Abortion Rights, Kyoto, Assault Weapons Ban, Patriot Act, Border Fence, Iran Sanctions, Iran - Military Action, Iraq War, Iraq Troop Surge, Iraq Withdrawal, Minimum Wage Increase, Same-Sex Marriage, Universal Healthcare

Giuliani -3
Paul -10
Thompson -18
Cox -32
Brownback -34
Huckabee -43
Romney -52
Hunter -61
Tancredo -70

Now the question I have is...who the hell is Kucinich! For all the people I administered the quiz to, Kucinich was on top.

Maybe all the people I associate myself with are liberal hippies- or maybe it was created by Kucinich himself...but I think you should try it for yourself.

For those of you who get Kucinich and like me had no idea who he was...he's the house of representatives spokesman for Ohio.

My guess is he won't make it past the primaries- but we've got some time just yet.

OR Maybe you're in cahoots with Kucinich.
