If you are unsure of where each presidential candidate stands on various issues (environment, education, social security, national security, etc..), you can go here.

There will be a series of questions to find out how you feel about different issues and then you will get matched up with the most compatible presidential candidate.

Mine:

Kerry %100
Kucinich %95
Sharpton %95
Dean %92
Edwards %91
Bush %36

I don't like AOL telling me who to vote for, but here's my results:

Bush - Republican - 100%
Edwards - Democrat - 79%
Kerry - Democrat - 72%
Dean - Democrat - 62%
Sharpton - Democrat - 51%
Kucinich - Democrat - 48%

Bush/Republican: 100%
Edwards/Democrat: 60%
Kerry/Democrat: 60%
Dean/Democrat: 50%
Sharpton/Democrat: 30%
Kucinich/Democrat: 30%

No surprise there except I think there are many more differences between Kerry and Edwards. The problem is because Kerry comes down on every side of every issue it makes it difficult to quantify his stances. Hence, he looks just like Edwards on paper when in fact I find Edwards to be a legitimate candidate and Kerry an anti-candidate. It's been very revealing the last few days the allure Edwards has to draw independents and Republicans that Kerry definitely doesn't have. Edwards has much more *electability* in my mind. Unfortunately, it's also fairly obvious who the DNC favors. A Bush/Edwards matchup would be a good race, imo; a Bush/Kerry race is just going to be ugly.

hum...

Kerry: 100%
Edwards: 93%
Dean: 82%
Sharpton: 78%
Kucinich: 77%
Bush: 55%

interesting....don't really care either way, Bush will be re-elected. Didn't Dean drop out anyways? Friggin scary that one was.

1 Bush Score: 100%
2 Kerry Score: 67%
3 Dean Score: 65%
4 Sharpton Score: 63%
5 Edwards Score: 60%
6 Kucinich Score: 47%

I'd have to say that poll works about as well as our current two party system does in identifying and addressing the issues

Kucinich Score: 100%
Sharpton Score: 97%
Kerry Score: 89%
Dean Score: 86%
Edwards Score: 78%
Bush Score: 20%

Bush: 100%
Edwards: 81%
Kerry: 78%
Dean: 66%
Sharpton: 56%
Kucinich: 46%

Sounds about right. Personally, social issues are my top priority, and I happen to agree with Bush's stance on most of them.

Bush: 100%
Edwards: 44%
Kerry: 35%
Dean: 32%
Kucinich: 14%

I think "The Rev" must have landed in negative digits or something for me. No sight of big Al in my final tally. *shrug* I dunno about the 100% for Bush, but the 14% for Kucinich is on the money.

edit: ah, I selected "must have previously held elected office," which ruled out Sharpton.
