Never mind that several questions didn't have the right answer as a choice. ;-)
Mine was identical.

yea the test is flawed I agree that several questions didn't have what I thought were good answers, like most polls and surveys it was kinda directed towards an end, but here ya go


Your top candidate match is Ron Paul!
Michele Bachmann and Rick Perry were runner-ups.


I think they left out too many options for get out of my life and go away, I do believe ( taint gonna happen) that the fed needs to go back to what it was in the late 1800's small fed and large people

It seems this "quiz" is biased so that one really has to stretch NOT to have Perry come out as No. 1. I'll be really surprised to see his name on the ballot come November. But then again...

I just did it again choosing a different answer for a couple that I struggled with the first time and Perry still didn't show up. It did cause a little panic while it was going through the candidates and Obama flashed on the screen. :shock:

This time it was ...

1. Gingrich
2. Bachmann
3. Huntsman

1. Paul
2. Obama
3. Perry

Sounds about right, except I would put Romney in the #3 slot.

Is this combination even possible?

Sure. I believe in less government in all aspects of my life. I probably agreed with Paul on the financial issues and Obama on the social issues, I would guess Perry had some small government line that I must have agreed with somewhere in there.

Ron Paul and Obama are actually very similar in beliefs.

I don't see Obama supporting constitutional limits on the federal government. Instead he's pushing more unconstitutional government regulation, more government spending, more debt and less freedom. He did sign the NPS carry law, so he's better than Romney on guns, but NPS carry was bundled with a whole bunch of government regulations and intrusion into our personal finances.

Well if you have swallowed the treble hook from the Paul pole that he is against increased governmental spending a simple search of his district is at hand.

I was replying to tallmike but my comments still stands regardless of red herrings.

P.S. Obamacare is the polar opposite of "my body, my choice" so SCOTUS will have to strike down one or the other if they expect to salvage any sense of legitimacy.

Ron Paul was my pick. Not surprising, although I wouldn't vote for him in a primary, but would if he was the GOP pick in the end (LOL...that will be the day!)

1. Perry ( Yaaaa for Rick)
2. Gingrich ( Like him too)
3. Bachmann ( yikes! Wench)

Now that I'm here, I need to say one thing: As much as I like Rick Santorum, nobody called him out on his statement during a debate, "Africa is one country that..........." and this is crap! Palin, who is a plain old idiot, was called out and it eventually led to her demise...
