“Always vote for principle. Though you may vote alone, you may cherish the sweetest reflection that your vote is never lost.” — John Quincy Adams
“Always vote for principle. Though you may vote alone, you may cherish the sweetest reflection that your vote is never lost.” — John Quincy Adams
Principles are important, but strategic vision is also important. Gore may be the best fixed to see how global warming, population increases, arable land decreases, growing sense of hopelessness among potential culture warriors, etc. will all work together to drive future trends. Putting a hot patch on one problem such as illegal immigration can, at best, only make people feel better. None of the candidates have demonstrated the perspicacity that would qualify one as a world leader.
I would just like to say that I did not fully agree with the outcome of this quiz. My first result was Barack Obama. I believe that he us conceded and full of himself and his “I know I’m going to win” attitude is unacceptable. Also, at the past debate, his responses were slow and groggy, and he seemed very lethargic. So, i think a more personal question should be added at the end of the quiz, such as “Do you support or oppose the idea that a candidate should have EXPERIENCE?”

UNLESS YOU VOTE WITH HACKABLE ELECTRONIC MACHINES.
All of these campaigns, polls, opinions, speculations, the obscene amounts of money etc. are academic if the electoral system continues to be rigged.
It looks like The People will just accept lying down a third stolen election.
WHY ISN’T YOUR HAIR ON FIRE AMERICA?
Kucinich is the only candidate who has the courage to question this most important issue in a Democracy. The media has ridiculed him, drowned him out and is not allowing him to debate. Is he such a threat to the status quo?
Thank you Mr. Adams. As the first one to have been part of the ‘dynasty’ experience your words have special meaning. {one may forgive the early citizens of this nation on the newness of the democratic ‘experiment’. perhaps monarchy still felt more comfortable…} also was it perhaps only the elite that voted primarilay at that time (property requirements, age limits, no women, no minorities). SO my criteria in this election is this: ABC anyone but clinton.
there is no room in a true democracy for the elitism that supports a dynasty. we must oppose it on principle.
I believe that Mike Huckabee represents alot of the great qualities that a presidential candidate should have, I think that most people who go with an open mind and visit his website would agree with me. http://www.mikehuckabee.com go and see for yourself, I am in love with the Fairtax and being able to get my whole paycheck back…I am tired of illegal aliens getting a free ride at my expense
