Thanks for sharing that site, Lloyd.

One of the things I really like about these calculators is they can give all of us a whack upside the head. They certainly can stir up our thinking a little bit.

It is so incredibly easy for us to overlook politicians who might be closer to our own beliefs simply because we are suckered into thinking about life through the two-party system.

Can you imagine a political system where we'd vote on politicians by voting on the issues instead of the personality? I think that could be a real improvement. We'd all have to vote by using a site like this. We'd be free of all the political horse race crap and we'd all be able to concentrate strictly on the issues at hand. Wow, that'd be downright dangerous ... an informed electorate!!
