Thread Name: BS: Nonpartisan presidential politics survey
Subject: RE: BS: Nonpartisan presidential politics survey
What I do to get back to the questions is to open up the survey again in a new window. I also do this to look at what each candidate had to say about the issues. That way i can compare them. It's hard to figure out why the answers come out the way they do at first, but seeing how they stand on issues makes that clearer. For better or worse, a lot of us who vote take on other factors than just the issues alone. Presumably we want someone responsible who can communicate, can make common cause, can persuade, can administrate, and can make good judgments in unforeseen circumstances. Okay, as performers, many of us might even want someone who won't bore us to death,

Also, this survey has the opportunity for a resppondent to indicate how important an issue is for them. That gets calibrated into the full mix.
