    How did it match you with the candidate in favor with the biggest government as your #1, and the candidate in favor of the smallest government as your #2?

    edit: pretty horrible quiz... There wasn't even a less lenient border control strategy option, and the gay marriage and abortion questions were pretty poor. I could match most of the answers with statements made by candidates so I had to try really hard not to influence my results.

    I wound up with Obama with 7, and huntsman / romney with 2

    It's pretty ridiculous this quiz. I haven't got the strangest of clues on how I got Ron Paul in second place, but Obama I'm kind of happy with. It was expected though that most people were going to get Barrack Obama on this quiz.

    If you look at the results page it tells you which questions you answered like which candidate. Yea this quiz is quite wacky though. To be fair, I don't think it was really meant to be taken too seriously. I vividly remember a cartoon caricature of Ron Paul telling me to "End the fed... And this quiz!"

    Oh yeah I saw the results. Three of my answers would of made Ron Paul proud xD. Yes, the first time I took this I ended up getting Mitt Romney for some reason odd reason. Maybe I'm a little ignorant when it comes to American politics, but I felted like retaking the quiz, and what do you know I ended up with Obama. The cartoons are bloody hysterical, the Ron Paul one made me kind of giggle for a bit.

    I have to agree this is a better test. I found mine on Yahoo's home page and it's pretty ridiculous now that I think about it.
    I got Buddy Roemer.

    OT: I kinda wish Hilary was President now that Obama turned out to be Emperor Palpatine (Order 66 here we come). Not that it matters anymore.

    This quiz was awful. There wasn't a single answer on any of the questions that I actually agreed with. So I refused to finish it.

    And if you did mean mine, I kind of agree, there were a lot of questions I didn't care about and or just didn't agree with any of the answers. But anyways, VoteSmart is a great place for candidate information.
