not sure if that's actually worth laughing about.
 
You know what I found funny? I looked at the results per state, and every single one except for South Dakota had Ron Paul and Gary Johnson above Mitt Romney. And every single red southern state scored higher for Libertarians than Republicans.

Maybe before every primary vote, the voters take this survey before they decide who they vote for.
 
The people taking this quiz are internet users....those two have a very strong internet following, so that doesn't surprise me.

I have a strong feeling that even if the quiz said Romney and they always voted for the (D) they are going to vote for Obama, and certainly vice versa. My grandmother absolutely hated Clinton, she was a Roosevelt Democrat and Clinton did not act like a President should act as far as she was concerned....but she voted for him 2x....lol

Some people just vote party. Especially older voters. Makes no sense to me. I'm not going to vote for someone I don't like just because of party.


I wouldn't be surprised to see that if all the voters took this quiz, more than half would have neither Obama or Romney at the top.

Very possible...
 
How the survey ranked me:

87% Barack Obama
84% Jill Stein
68% Stewart Alexander
37% Ron Paul
27% Mitt Romney

I'm honestly surprised Romney's so high. And I guess they just didn't bother ranking Johnson for me? :awesome:

Pretty funny stuff.

For secondary candidates if they don't rank high they don't show them unless you expand the candidates. Chances are Johnson ranks slightly higher then Paul on your list
 
Well, damn Gary Johnson...

Gary Johnson (Libertarian Party) claims the title of President by collecting enough electoral votes to put him in the White House with 284 votes (270 is the magic number to win the presidency) by winning 28 states


This is based off of over 600,000 people taking the quiz. This guy did the math. This is VERY possible if IF, :cmad: IF Gary were to get to debate against Obama and Romney. And time is running out on him being included.
 
My results:

82% Jill Stein (social, environmental, economic issues)
75% Ron Paul (immigration, healthcare)
74% Barack Obama (social and environmental issues)
53% Mitt Romney (immigration issues)
 
Well, damn Gary Johnson...

The math only works if isidewith represents an unbiased sample of voters, which I highly doubt.

It's really easy for a 3rd party candidate to win in a survey that is likely going to be taken younger, internet savvy voters (whose political leanings are still in flux).

How many older Republicans do you think took this survey? Or even older Democrats.

How many who took the survey aren't even old enough to vote this year.

Shush! Don't destroy his optimism. That's what I plan on doing come November :oldrazz:

:dry: He's polling 5.3% nationally according to JZ Analytics in a likely voters poll...that came out last week end. And there is still the Ron Paul factor and volunteers like me working social media.

I do think there's a chance he does flop and gets 0.7-0.9%, but I still think he is gonna end up doing 2000 Nader numbers at least. Time is running out, but don't count out a 2 term governor just yet.

Exactly, this is not a sampling of likely voters, nor is it a sampling of one of the largest voting populations the 55+ voting population, a good majority of them are not on the internet. This is an internet sampling, and as we know that sampling goes a great deal for 3rd party candidates, so this isn't anything new. And a good number of those that show a high % for 3rd party candidates are still, come voting time will vote for a (D) or an (R) doesn't matter what this poll shows.
 
Barack Obama 91%
Jill Stein 87%
Stewart Alexander 80%
Ron Paul 19%
Mitt Romney 13%


Not surprised. :woot:
 
I did this a while back, can't remember all of the exact numbers, but I remember Ron Paul being 93% (didn't agree on foreign policy) and Obama was like 30%.

I think it is a shame that no one who doesn't have an (R) or (D) next to their name will ever be elected president. We really do need to shake it up and get away from the strict two-party system people vote by.
