Don't know who?

Don't know who to support for president. To hell with party affiliations, who's the candidate that shares your convictions... well, let's say professes to share your convictions... we are talking politicians, after all.

I've got good news for you. Here is a short easy quiz to sort it out, for you. When you finish the quiz, it will ask for your email but allows you to skip that by clicking at the top of the page.

It's amusing, but I don't take it very seriously personally because a lot of the black & white alternatives are not mutually exclusive for me. (For example, I don't believe strong protection of civil liberties is inherently anti-security.)

Who the hell is Alan Augustson?

He looks like Zippy to me...

If I was gonna vote Green Party, it would be a Biafra vote all the way, anyway.

I like an informal polling at this point in time. Based on what I saw in the poll, we are looking at a very conservative race.
It is way to early to guess, I usually wait till NH. and IA. before I even start any consideration.
