I've never heard of Jill Stein, but if her platform is that similar to mine, I think I want to.

The gun control question seems to be bugged. The only major candidate who has ever banned guns is set as not supporting increased gun control, while the only major candidate who has not banned guns is set as supporting increased gun control.

Haven't been following elections, never heard of Jill Stein or Gary Johnson.

They're the candidates for the Green and Libertarian parties, respectively.

Gary Johnson was the Republican governor of New Mexico. He was and is outspoken against the War on Drugs. He's also into athletics, and after finishing his last term in NM he climbed Mt. Everest.

Yeah I got Jill Stein as well (pro-science and pro-choice) but then I'm a Brit and would view most of your democrats as slightly to the right of our UK Conservatives and your republicans as insane!

It's amusing, but it has some serious problems with the questions.

For instance, one of the questions is whether we should end the war in Afghanistan. What does that mean? As far as I know, EVERY major and most minor candidates want to end the war in Afghanistan. Where they differ is in HOW to end the war.

Another terrible question is the one whether the debt ceiling should be raised. Most people don't know what the debt ceiling is. They think it has something to do with the debt or deficit, and so will answer as if the question is whether the debt or the deficit should be increased. In fact, the debt ceiling has little to with either the debt or the deficit.

The "Choose another stance" option is important.

The default answers are simple so that people who have little investment in the quiz can quickly get through it and maybe compare results with the candidates. If you actually care about your response, you can see the alternates, which are usually the "No, but" and "Yes, and" sorts of answers that the candidates provided or otherwise stated. Choosing them can lean your score towards certain candidates more than others.
