Your Presidential Match

[Old North State Irish]

As you can see from my test results I am apparently a very hard line Republican but never thought of myself as such. The problem with the test is that I am answering questions on issues that I really don't really care about in this election cycle. The question about the Feds keepings the parks while important I really don't care. My thoughts are that private industry runs circles around government intities (you never see State DOT paving roads anymore and there is a reason for that). My point in this rambling is to me that this election is about a very few critical things: Debt, Economy, Immigration, and Military are my critical issues. The rest is just filler.

The poll addresses this by allowing you to assign a level of importance for each issue on a sliding scale from least to most. I assume that the degree to which you care about a particular issue is reflected in the results.

Only issue it said I somewhat agree with Obama on is science, which to me as a voter doesn't matter.

The most surprising part for me is I consider myself less hard right than the survey seems to show, and closer to moderate. The other surprising part was how closely it followed Romney...and to be honest I haven't studied the canidates yet, nor given 2 rats asses about the election up to this point because I've been hearing enough about it over social media from my friends the last 4 months.

Cool site. I'll be passing that one one.

Living in Tennessee you can vote for whomever you want. It’s a pretty red state. I live in Florida, not to say my vote counts more than yours, but my vote counts more than yours. I think this election will come down to Florida and Ohio. If you live in one of those states, you should really pick between one of the two parties. Not that I’m in favor of the two party system, but it’s what we have at the moment. Please don’t take this as a slight. I rarely post on this site, and from what I’ve read over the years, most of you are far more intelligent than I. Just wanted to put in my two cents.

Not if Stein came on top, then you should definitely stick to your guns. If it was Gary Johnson you should vote for Romney though.

 

[Cackalacky]

Jill Stein 92%
Obama 84%
Romney 16%

South Carolina 24% (LOL)

Cool site. My vote don't count for ****.

It seemed somewhat non partisan, though I did have a problem with the Evolution question... are we talking microevolution, which is a widely held scientific fact... or macro which is very much up for debate either way??? I assumed the second as that is usually what people mean when they say "Evolution" so....

I also agreee the evolution question was weird, but there is no difference between micro and macro evolution except time and scale. Evolution is a widely held fact supported by more research than I can possibly list here. Biologists do not even acknowledge a difference. That is a distortion of the facts by creationists so that their dogma can fit in with the rest of the world's view. I am not going to debate it cause I wont change your mind but please note that outside of religous circles, there is no discernible difference and no true biologist will claim a difference. All orgnaisms evolve and people have evolved. I can't help that the facts disagree with certain religous beliefs but such is the division between science and religion. Perpetuation of these types of disengenuous conflagrations **** me off to no extent.

You assume I'm coming from some creationist viewpoint and not from that of a college level science teacher....... the quick jumps on the part of many on these threads **** me off.... but... on that note, science can be just dogmatic as any religion these days... and is quite fallible.

 

[Cackalacky]

You assume I'm coming from some creationist viewpoint and not from that of a college level science teacher....... but... on that note, science can be just dogmatic as any religion these days... maybe more so.

A college level science teacher knowledable of the Modern Synthesis would not claim that evolution is up for debate. is it fully explained, no and nothing ever will be. Further I know well the limitations of science and "knowledge." I don't understand how those darned demonstrable and repeatable facts are dogmatic though. Maybe you mean the theories? I guess the theory of gravity is dogmatic, or germ theory is dogmatic as well....

I pmd you and will only respond there, no need to highjack the thread.
