Presidential Candidate Selector

Here are my results from the the SelectSmart.com 2004 AMERICAN PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE SELECTOR quiz. I got interesting results.

1. Kucinich, Cong. Dennis, OH - Democrat (100%)
2. Dean, Gov. Howard, VT - Democrat (76%)
3. Sharpton, Reverend Al - Democrat (73%)
4. Kerry, Senator John, MA - Democrat (58%)
5. Gephardt, Cong. Dick, MO - Democrat (56%)
6. Edwards, Senator John, NC - Democrat (51%)
7. Libertarian Candidate (50%)
8. Moseley-Braun, Former Senator Carol IL - Democrat (49%)
9. Lieberman Senator Joe CT - Democrat (47%)
10. Graham, Senator Bob, FL - Democrat (30%)
11. Phillips, Howard - Constitution (27%)
12. Bush, George W. - US President (20%)
13. LaRouche, Lyndon H. Jr. - Democrat (-12%)

Eliminate those who have no chance of being elected (Kucinich, Sharpton, Moseley-Braun, etc.), and it’s just about right. I can’t strongly support any candidate right now, though I did vote in the MoveOn.org online primary.
