Are you sure your views are in line with your candidates'?

Here's a little "quiz" that might help you. Just choose whether you support or oppose an issue, or have no opinion on it. You might be surprised by the results. (I wasn't, but I've done Lots of research.)

This is also good for lots of other state races, not just the Presidential Election. Have fun!

Update 2:

That link is working for me, so hopefully it fixes it. I think everyone should take a quiz like this.

Estimates are that about 20%-27% of people are voting for candidates who do NOT share their views (mostly because they are voting based on party or propaganda).

Update 3:

Also, no one is going to be 100% aligned with their candidate's views. This quiz breaks it into social and economic issues, which I find interesting.

    Yep, 80% so, according to another quiz I took (but I kind of already knew that).

    Oh, and your link doesn't work.

    I don't believe all of a voters views can be totally alligned with their chosen canidate. As a voter it is our job to sift through the rederick & learn as much as we can about each canidate and from there decide what issues are most important to us then vote for the person you feel will best address those issues. I am an Obama supporter.

    I'm only 29% aligned with his views, but that's more than the alternatives. If I was old enough to vote, I'd write in Ron Paul.
