Voting Quiz
Here's an interesting Voting Quiz: http://www.wqad.com/Global/link.asp?L=259460
I wonder what this would look like a year from now (liars all!). It's interesting to note how you can see what their religious stance is, by looking at the "Disagree" column to see which candidates have listed Stem Cell Reasearch, abortion and marriage - kind of a give-away!
Miracles don't exist. "Miracle" is a word given to a preposterous event that a theist considers dogmatically advantageous. Def. - Ecclesiastical sensationalism.

Chris Dodd is my candidate, apparently. Though he's from my home state of Connecticut, so I guess I shouldn't be surprised.
Interestingly, I disagree with every single candidate from both parties on the future of Iraq.
Nobody I know was brainwashed into being an atheist.
Why Believe?
Aww... there was no question for "Do you believe the IRS should be abolished?"
Like John Edwards or Obama are actually gonna win.
Dennis Kucinich and Chris Dodd were top for me - next closest was Hillary Clinton (Who I intend on voting for.)
Matt Shizzle has been banned from the Rational Response Squad website. This event shall provide an atmosphere more conducive to social growth. - Majority of the mod team
I got Dodd and Guliani.
I'll probably go with Guliani because taxes and SS are more important to me than immigration.
It is nice to see that anyone with a chance of winning is on the same page as me with Stem-cell funding, gay marriage, and abortion rights (3 of my top issues)

You want to vote for Benito Guilliani!!!!????
For taxes and social security, I highly recommend Ron Paul. He wants to completely abolish the IRS and allow us to opt out of social security. He also appears to be one of the most honest politicians I've seen. He is a pro-life Christian, so he would probably support anti-abortion legislation, as he would see that as protecting the unborn child's constitutional right to life. However, he also has strong beliefs in individual freedom and secular government, and an excellent record of voting according to those beliefs (as opposed to according to which lobbyists are willing to pay the most). So, I think the vast majority of Christian BS laws would get vetoed without a second thought. I'll admit that I haven't researched the other candidates as well as I have this guy, but he is the first politician I've seen in decades that I would actually trust the white house to.
I got Hillary and Biden.
The ticket is going to be Hilary for prez and Obama for VP. I wish they'd just decide that now so they could get on with trouncing the Repubs...

Why Believe?
I got a rock.
I mean Gravel. Or Kucinich.
I got Hilliary Clinton followed by Barack Obama - which is pretty close to how I felt before the survey. However, I heard Obama speak on campus once and everytime I see him I now remember him talking about how when he first used to campaign people would not be able to pronounce his name and would say things like "What? Who's Ya Mama?"
I got Kucinich and Gravel.
With Kucinich, the only part that he differs on is immigration, and that part I didn't like any of the choices!
