    Presidential Candidate Selector

    My top 5 were:
    • Duncan Hunter
    • Ron Paul
    • Tom Tancredo
    • Chuck Hagel
    • Jim Gilmore

    My Bottom notable 5 (Who's Elaine Brown & Augustson?) were:
    • John Edwards
    • Barrack Obama
    • Hillary Clinton
    • Rudy Julie-Annie
    • Michael Bloomberg

    Only thing I really disagreed with was Duncan Hunter over Ron Paul. Other than that I found it to be pretty accurate to my existing bias towards the candidates.

    Mine were almost exactly the same. What scares me is that Hillary was at 32 or something like that.

    7. Ron Paul (52%)

    Same here Bro. Curtis....

    1. theoretical ideal candidate
    2. Obama
    3. Kucinich
    4. Dodd
    5. Biden

    Bottom 5 in descending order
    1. Gilmore
    2. Hunter
    3. Thompson
    4. Gingrich
    5. Tancredo

    However, at this point, I'm not leaning toward any candidate, right or left. I am rather disillusioned with enitre political process, not to mention the whole lot of politicians.

    I'm very unsettled on the top 5, but my bottom 5 is a match for the OP with Obama being dead last with Hillary as next to last. I just ignore Kucinich entirely.

    My top 5 were:
    1. Duncan Hunter
    2. Tom Tancredo
    3. Chuck Hagel
    4. Jim Gilmore
    5. Sam Brownback

    Which is kind of interesting since i've whittled my favorites to support right now down to Romney, Huckabee or Fred Thompson.

    My bottom 5 are:
    24. Dennis Kucinich
    25. Mike Gravel
    26. Barak Obama
    27. Alan Agustson
    28. Elaine Brown

    OK...how leftists is this Elaine Brown lady if she ranks lower than Kucinich and Obama?!?! Is she the 2nd coming of Marx or something?

    Sounds like she could be close. She's apparently a green party candidate and black panther. (Source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elaine_Brown)

    (Augustson is Green Party as well.)

    Mine too. Only Bloomberg and the two Greenies finished lower on mine. It demonstrates to me, how clearly liberal "America's Mayor" is.
