you don't get him if you select to only display the running candidates, including independents. That's why I only have 8, and you have 17 results.

I wanted to see where Howard Dean was going to show up because i would have voted for him if i could same as John McKain who did not appear sadly.

Seems to be fairly accurate, actually, though upon looking at the pages of some of these candidates, I might move Walt Brown up above Nader.

Oh yeah that's way too true.

They were originally from the same party. So it should be more or less true. Also  my political history teacher told me they change their views on some of thier polotical views sometimes. My only guess is to screw with peoples heads.

good lord we've got a lot of greenies. How do you even get that to show up on the poll?


Title: Re: 2004 AMERICAN PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE SELECTOR
Post by: Lord Nepenthean on October 19, 2004, 06:48:53 PM
Yeah I was thinking the same thing.  That's got to be a disproportionate cross-section of the board.

I think the questions where skewed. Besides you could pick multiple items for somethings and they were practically oposites but they could be rated with the same amount of importance.

Post by: The Metamorphosing Leon on October 19, 2004, 07:05:20 PM
Yeah I though the whole thing was kinda screwy like that. The minority, enviromental and gunclub issues were probably all fixed for Kerry and Bush.

You can definitely kind of tell how your results will show up.  If you take the religion selector on that site, it's even more obvious what the results will be before it finishes.  As long as you have an idea of the major branches of Christianity, Buddhism, Hinduism, Islam, etc., you can pretty much tell what the results will say.  Makes sense.....  if you know what your beliefs are, you don't really need to put them into a computer to have it spit them back at you.
