Support NeoGAF

[Moofers]

Great poll but it was missing certain questions:

"Do you feel a Presidential candidate should be able to accept bribes donations from corporations?"

"Do you feel that low-income families could earn more income by trying harder?"

"Does the thought of a small part of your earnings being used to help those less fortunate angry up the blood?"

"Do you own a bumper sticker that says "Fuck you, I got mine!" ?"

"Do you like the idea of keeping all of your money so that you can then spend it on yourself or just collect it to watch your bank account get bigger create jobs for others, therefore helping the economy despite what those damn whining moochers would say?"

*Answers yes to all questions*

You sided: 100% with all Republican candidates

 

[DOG3NZAKA]

91% Bernie Sanders, 85% Hillary Clinton

 

[Kacho]

Very interesting. I didn't think Hilary would rank so high for me.

 

[Brofield]

Sanders is highest at 89%, Clinton at 83%

Very curious, strange to see a lot get a few points short of 100% with Bernie and me not even break 90% with any candidate. Granted, I am Canadian, so I'm about to try that version instead. Curious if it would say I should still vote liberal after Trudeau threw away his votes supporting C-51.

At least one of the questions they don't have Burnie's position on, so no matter what you answer it's going to come up as differing from the candidate. I'd say most people are pretty much all in with Burnie.

 

[Third Strike]

I side with Sanders on 98% of issues in 2016, 88% for Clinton, and 79% with O'Malley.

Too bad the Green Party isn't really a viable party in the US.

Neither are the socialists.

 

[ChaosXVI]

I got 96% Bernie, which is exactly what I expected. I can't wait for the primaries so we can finally end this "but does he really have a chance?!" talk.

I do find it pretty ridiculous that Bernie would be seen as a fairly moderate left-wing candidate in most European countries, but in America he's so far left people didn't know the scale could go that far left...it's utterly ludicrous!

 

[lil]

Oh dear, 98% Bernie. That has never happened to me before, lol. Usually my highest is in the low 80's.

With all the lack of media focusing on Sanders, I think it truly would be the last laugh to see him win the general elections next year.

In the meantime, I still got Liberal at 80%, but NDP and Green tied second with 70%. Funny enough I got the Bloc at 60%. I do want to go through the US iSideWith to find some more questions to add to the Canadian version; I genuinely wish there would be more detail put into it given our next Federal Election is coming up this October and we have a chance at removing Harper and never hearing those godawful Tory attack ads for a while.

 

[SPEA]

Interesting.

 

[RPGamer92]

Got 98% with Bernie on top.

 

[MrCunningham]

As a Canadian... I am not sure what this means But I guess I would be voting for Bernie Sanders. Big sigh of relief that Jeb Bush is nowhere to be found on my radar.,

Though given how many of us agree with Bernie Sanders, it makes me wonder if this is some sort of stealth advertising website paid for by by his committee.

Oh, and for the Canadian poll:

 

[Bluekaveli]

But I forgot to mention, I'm voting for Lil B 😄

 

[sinxtanx]

Non-American Swedelord here

If I had billions I might foreignly invest in Bernie's presidency

 

[TheContact]

Mine came out as Bernie sanders then Hillary. Had no idea about Bernie. I liked Hillary but disagreed with her on some of her agendas. Bernie seems like a good fit. I know who I'm voting for

 

[NYCrooner]

I sided with Clinton 87% followed by Sanders 82%.

It interesting to see how much Sanders resonates with people.

 

[cromnigh]

i'm not an American but I took it anyway.

95% Sanders
87% Clinton
73% O'Malley

 

[Portugeezer]

Non-American here but I took the test.

j/k legit got 81% for Sanders.

Wow, this Santorum guy must be a dick.

 

[Fireblend]

Has anyone managed to 100% Trump so far?

 

[Zach]

97% Bernie
85% Hillary
70% O'Malley

99% Green
98% Socialist
97% Democrat

I must be the least white male Oklahoman white male Oklahoman. >_>

 

[MrCunningham]

Has anyone managed to 100% Trump so far?

So far HUELEN10 seems to be in the lead with 77% for Trump.

I'm surprised that I ended up getting 50% towards Donald Trump.

 

[RPGCrazied]

I took it, looks like I need to vote for Sanders.

 

[2San]

Dutchman here. I got 83% with Hillary and 82% with Sanders. Seems like Hillary and Bernie don't really differ much.

 

[NeoXChaos]

I'm so happy about the results. Hillary is going to be the next choice after Bernie and these results confirm it. See guys, Hillary isnt so bad. You all are getting high 80's with her.

 

[Hilbert]

I was 98 with Sanders and 90 with Clinton.

I am still going to be a Clinton supporter.

 

[SolidusDave]

German here:
Bernie Sanders 87%
Hillary Clinton 84%
...
Carly Fiorina 7%

Parties:
Green Party 97%
Democrats 93%
Socialist 93%
...
Republicans 15%

Also German here:

It puts me to the lefties but here I would be more like centralist

What's up with the NeoGAF count on the right though? Seems like most people in this thread would actually side with my choices?



Edit: This is with expanding all questions and often also the additional, more precise answers. I tried to weight most of them, too.

 

[Furyous]

According to this survey, I'm a left-wing authoritarian... WAT?

*Scust at this survey*

I'm a registered Republican by the way so what is going on? I feel bad being associated with the Dems unless it's GOAT 44 Barack Obama. He's cool but the rest of the party is suspect.

It called me left wing authoritarian?!!! Has the Republican party fallen so far that I'm considered left wing or is this the fault of the Tea Party?

 

[Perfect Blue]

Sounds about right.

Did you expand the ask more questions link ?

 

[neogaffer1]

Is it just me or did they used to have the Communist party as well?

Either way I'm proud to be incredibly left.

 

[Moofers]

Did you expand the ask more questions link ?

Heh heh. I must have missed the extra ones below the first batch of extra ones!

Looks to me like you answered exactly like a leftist. What issues did you expect to agree with the Republicans on?

I got left libertarian and voted in favor of single payer, raising taxes, and forcing businesses to serve people they don't like. I think it's pretty accurate. You've probably been a democrat this whole time.

 

[TheWarrior]

What information was used for Hillary's stance on issues? As far as I can tell she still hasn't said much.

 

[Furyous]

Looks to me like you answered exactly like a leftist. What issues did you expect to agree with the Republicans on?

I expected to agree with Republicans on things like domestic policy, foreign policy, the economy, 1/4 of immigration, half the environment, and 1/2 of education.

Instead it had me agreeing with the Green Party on social and education issues. The rest of my stances align with the Democrats. The Republican party has fallen too far to the right when I'm considered left wing Authoritarian. I'm very confused right now.

I got left libertarian and voted in favor of single payer, raising taxes, and forcing businesses to serve people they don't like. I think it's pretty accurate. You've probably been a democrat this whole time.

But, but, but, I voted for Bush... twice!! Life has really altered the world's perspective to the point that I'm considered a Democrat.

I voted to raise taxes on rich people, raise the minimum wage, and legalize marijuana. Republicans have to come off our beef with legal weed because it raises revenue for states.

[RiZ III]

92% with Bernie. To be honest the biggest issue for me is the Israeli occupation. I think Bernie is the only Democratic candidate that would resume Obama's "tougher" stance on Israeli settlements and recognizing that Netanyahu is not a partner for peace. That alone will get him my vote.

 

[Fuchsdh]

Trump is a little too high for my liking.

Although I do think undocumented immigrants should pay taxes, and we should raise border security. Let's get the social safety net in place for those that are here currently, and then worry about getting new people in.

Yeah the way those questions were worded I scored pretty highly with Trump, presumably for those reasons. Of course my beliefs are paired with more generous immigration quotas and the idea that we should be working harder to help countries with high immigrant populations so they don't feel the need to leave their homes.

Like anything, these sorts of tests can't really capture a lot of nuance, but it's still a useful tool to confront your "gut feeling" about candidates you may not know much about.

 

[Purple Cheeto]

Apparently I only agree with 46% of NeoGAF on domestic policy issues. Hunh.

 

[MaxDOL]

not American

84% - Jeb Bush
82% - Marco Rubio
80% - Rick Santorum

Constitution party 88% (which I had to look up, I don't see how I got that high % given that I'm for welfare, for free college, for a single payer system and increased taxes on the rich and not religious, but I guess the immigration, environment, and foreign policy bumped it up)

Non American here.
You got almost similar result and issues as myselves.
I am conservative when it come to immigration and foreign policy.
Although I kinda scare with myselves that I got Rick Santorum as top 3.

 

[Randolph Freelander]

I did this a couple of weeks ago after a friend on Facebook got 96% Rubio sadface).

I got 86% Bernie, mid 70s Hillary, and down from there.

 

[Moofers]

"Do you feel the need to insulate yourself against people who might disagree with you by pretending that they are comic book super villains?"

Read that and tell me it's not a party of comic book villains.

A lot of people vote against their own interests, even when it concerns the issues most important to them.

 

[Damaniel]

I took this a few weeks ago. I got 98% for Bernie, 83% for Clinton, and <50% for everyone else (most of the really evil GOP clown car people were under 10%, fortunately).

I still can't make myself vote for Bernie (I just don't think he can win the general election). His key is going to be getting young people out to vote, and they seem to be responding pretty well so far, so I might end up pleasantly surprised.

 

[perfectchaos007]

US-GAF has a lot of socialists. I took this test last month and Bernie was my #1. I think this exam is rigged in Bernie's favor. It must be

 

[Malfunky]

No one is a left-wing libertarian in politics. It just doesn't exist, sadly. I'm more in the center top myself, but any dude that is on the Liberty side is my bro, so solidarity and shit.

It sort of negates the idea of being a libertarian to become politician. Politically active libertarian socialists and anarchists are usually doing important work in activism and direct actions, however, which is where our main focus has always and should always be. The idea, of course, is that the political and electoral systems are inherently broken and all important work can be done outside of it. The more direct action the citizenry become involved with, the more control they will have over their lives. That said, the utilitarian vote for someone in this camp would be someone like Bernie Sanders, depending on your view on voting.

Well, it's shit like this that made it classify you a left-wing. No Republican candidate in the last 20+ years would ever support any of those things (with the exception of the Pauls + drug laws). In fact, if a candidate today said they supported these things they'd probably get booed. The entire GOP philosophy is that "government = bad", so any new legal restrictions on business (like tax or minimum wage hikes) goes against everything the party stands for.

 

[ivysaur12]

I'm legitimately surprised they were able to pick any positions for Trump to put them in the quiz.

Yes they have, The republican party has fallen so damn far.
