Presidential Selector Surprises

From Pax Nortona a link to this Presidential Candidate Selector. Try it. You may be surprised as I was. Do note, however, that my top rated real candidate didn't just barely broke 50%. Indicative I think of my ambivalence. Also indicative of the fact that for the most part I don't think presidential candidates should be beholden from the start to any special interest groups. (See the latter half of the quiz.)

In my results, Bush, Kerry & Kucinich were all clustered around 50%, within a few % of each other.
