A Political Quiz That's Actually Useful
Jan. 30th, 2004 08:06 pmI like this quiz! (Thank you,
detroitpainter!) It solicits your opinion on various issues and how important each section is. At least on my browser, it was well set-up, so that you can go back through and change various parts of your answers without having to re-take the whole thing.
And if you don't trust the quiz's results, then you can compare the candidates' positions yourself.
But what I really like about it is that it's issue-focused. I've always found it surprisingly hard to find out what candidates stand for (contributing, I'm sure, to my perception that they don't stand for anything.) So it was great to see a site refering to drilling in the ANWR and immigration policies, instead of Dean's post-primary whoop or Bush's flight jacket. :P
