2008 Presidential Election: Can This Survey Determine Who You Should Vote For?

Not sure who you should vote for in the 2008 Presidential election? You could spend a lot of time reading up on the 2008 Presidential candidates and their views on different issues. If you did this, you'd probably figure out how big name candidates feel about Iraq, global warming, universal health care and a few other issues. And when you got to the polls, you'd still probably see on the ballot some names of people of whom you've never heard.

This approach to learning about the 2008 Presidential candidates would take you a lot of time. And if you do it as a crash course, you probably won't even remember half of what you read. What if someone could make it simpler?

Well, someone has tried to make it simpler. Attitude Media has put together a very brief survey. Answer 12 questions yes or no, check those questions that are likely to carry a lot of weight with you at the voting booth, and press the "cast your vote" button. Attitude Media will then tell you which candidate's views most closely match your own.

Is this a new craze that will have a major impact on upcoming United States Presidential elections? Undoubtedly not, but it is a lot of fun and taking the Attitude Media survey will give you a quick summary of the various candidates views. Even if the Attitude Media survey doesn't define for you whom you should vote for in the upcoming Presidential elections, it may help you narrow the field of candidates on whom you focus.

I took the Attitude Media survey for fun. It told me my views were most aligned with those of Dennis Kucinich. Hhm. Must be that year I spent in Cleveland. Something in the Cuyahoga water? My newfound kindred spirit Denny and I, we both think that war in Iraq ought to end. We're not too fond of the War on Drugs either and would like to see that one end with it. It's so 80s. About time we moved onto something else. And we may have just the thing. Dennis Kucinich and I are both eager to see the United States government take on global warming. If there has to be a war on something, global warming is a pretty good target. No lives lost, and it comes packaged with good feelings about helping human and animal kind.
