Dennis Kucunich is My Boy
It's not easy to follow the American political scene from the middle of the Pacific. So I come to rely on the web and gathering bits and pieces of information wherever it can be had (thanks, Ursula), which is almost no place other than the web. That's how I came across to the SelectSmart.com 2004 Presidential Candidate Selector.
Selectsmart.com sez: "the candidates' positions have been determined first by the candidate's actions, then their public votes, followed by their public statements, and whenever possible, special interest group rankings of the candidate have been factored in."
Ok.
Accornding to this online "survey", my political beliefs are most closely aligned with Dennis Kucinich, some Congressman from Ohio. That is, if you're inclined to take the results of polls like seriously, which I'm not. That I'm 82% aligned with Reverend Al Sharpton is almost as frightening as the fact that Democrats ate not likely to put up much of challenge to our current administration. Not that I like the Dems all that much.
Here are my results:
| 1. | Kucinich, Cong. Dennis, OH - Democrat (100%) |
| 2. | Edwards, Senator John, NC - Democrat (94%) |
| 3. | Dean, Gov. Howard, VT - Democrat (86%) |
| 4. | Kerry, Senator John, MA - Democrat (85%) |
| 5. | Gephardt, Cong. Dick, MO - Democrat (84%) |
| 6. | Sharpton, Reverend Al - Democrat (82%) |
| 7. | Graham, Senator Bob, FL - Democrat (79%) |
| 8. | Moseley-Braun, Former Senator Carol IL - Democrat (75%) |
| 9. | Lieberman Senator Joe CT - Democrat (73%) |
| 10. | Libertarian Candidate (49%) |
| 11. | Bush, George W. - US President (11%) |
| 12. | Phillips, Howard - Constitution (8%) |
| 13. | LaRouche, Lyndon H. Jr. - Democrat (-7%) |

'Dennis Kucunich is My Boy'.
god, where to start....
a) it's impossible for any poll to have you aligned with kucinich 100% and edwards 94% - these guys are on opposite wings of the party.
b) kucinich is a socialist moron who has about as much chance as i do for winning the democratic nomination. I am a staunch democrat, but if kucinich wins, I will make a baldwin-esque pledge (but actually keep it) and move to france.
