Which Presidential Candidate Are You?

[Joshua Farrell]

You're Leonard Peltier!

A Native American citizen of the Anishinabe and Lakota Nations, you’re considered by many people and organisations – Amnesty International, Nelson Mandela and the Dalai Lama among them – to be an illegally-held political prisoner and a blight on the already spotty human rights record of the United States. A campaigner for the rights of Native American peoples, you organised security for a tribe which was encountering violence from pro-assimilation groups – and were subsequently involved in a shoot-out on June 26, 1975.

Now in jail, you’ve decided to run for President of the United States as part of the Peace & Freedom Party. Sure, you can’t participate in the democratic process as a convicted felon, but you were wrongly accused, right? Right. And anyway, it’s worth it to draw attention to the plight of the oppressed native people throughout the country.

You're John Kerry!

The son of a community activist and a World War Two Air Corps pilot, you voluntarily joined the army to serve in Vietnam as you neared the end of your college years at Yale. There you earned a Silver Star, a Bronze Star with Combat V, and three Purple Hearts. However, during your tour of duty you became disillusioned with the involvement of the United States, and as soon as you left you became a spokesman for Vietnam Veterans Against the War. This was your introduction to politics; you then proceeded to help convict an organised crime head, and create rape counselling centres across New England.

In 1984 you were elected to the Senate, and there you remain, a seasoned politician fighting for progressive values. You’re one of the wealthiest politicians in the country, and are happily married to the heiress to the Heinz empire – without any bit of sauce on the side. In 2004, after a very strong fight, you accepted the Democratic Party nomination.

Finnally something different!

Third time around, I changed some of my answerw, but had the same idea, and I got:

You're Michael Anthony Peroutka!

A Maryland lawyer, you’re standing on a platform of “God, Family, Republic.” To clarify, that’s the Christian God, the traditional family, and the Republic as an isolationist entity. Your running mate is a Baptist minister, all the paleoconservatives are down with you, and if nothing else, you’re virtually guaranteed a vote from Pat Buchanan.

You're Michael Badnarik!

A software engineer from Indiana, you have worked as a computer programmer in such auspicious places as the Zion and Diablo Canyon nuclear power plants. You also created computer simulations that were integral to the creation of the stealth bomber, but had to flee your California home when the state enacted strict gun laws. Naturally, you relocated to Texas.

Largely motivated by your gun rights activism, you initially ran for office as part of the Libertarian party in 2000; in 2004 you’re running again, and attempting to promote a campaign for States’ rights. In most cases you oppose regulation – for example against offensive content in broadcast media, and in abortion cases – and believe in free trade wherever possible.

Controversially, you believe in privatising education entirely, eliminating the Department of Education; you also believe in eliminating any sort of public health care. Who needs those poor people anyway? Laissez faire, baby!

I got him two...I mean seriously I'm a Christian Canditate?

John Kerry. Eww

[hey]

LOL.

You spent your formative years as a construction worker in San Leon, Texas, before heading to college. Not coming from a wealthy family, you had to wait tables to pay for your education, and it paid off: you graduated from the University of Houston Law School in 1993. You then had a successful law practice for seven years.

In 2000, Ralph Nader asked you to manage the Green Party election campaign in Texas, and you agreed; in 2002 you were the Green Party candidate for Attorney General. Now you’re pulling all the stops and standing as the Presidential candidate; everyone agrees that a Green Party candidate can’t actually win, but can you make a difference?

please tell me this isnt true


You're George W. Bush!

The son of President George Bush, Sr. and Barbara Bush, and a member of the rich and powerful Bush dynasty, you were born in Connecticut, but grew up in Midland and Houston, Texas. You went to Yale – as did your main rival, John Kerry – and allegedly served in the National Guard, although there is some question regarding your service record. After graduating, you served on the board of an energy company (which subsequently failed), and purchased the Texas Rangers baseball team in 1989.

In 1994, you were elected Governor of Texas, and presided over the largest number of state executions in United States history. Although there was an outcry from organisations like Amnesty International, you were re-elected in 1998; the first governor to be elected for two adjacent four-year terms.

However, in 2000 you were appointed President of the United States of America by the Supreme Court (although according to the National Opinion Research Centre, your opponent, Al Gore, got the most votes; a lucky break). Being President is hard work, as you pointed out repeatedly in your first debate with Kerry – but you did get to spend 40% of your time on your ranch in Crawford. After all, you trusted your staff, many of whom were part of the controversial Project for a New American Century group, who felt that a catastrophic event would be the only thing that would galvanise the American people into compliance with their political ambitions.

On September 11, 2001, two planes hit the World Trade Centre in New York; another hit the Pentagon, and a fourth plane crashed in Pennsylvania (and may have been forcibly brought down before it could hit another target). This changed your Presidency, and you suddenly became about freedom from terrorism; you forced the PATRIOT Act into law, apparently to preserve liberty through the loss of liberties. You also took the opportunity to promote faith-based groups and started the process of outlawing abortion. Even your own father called you up in an effort to get you to calm down.

Opinion polls show that 90% of the world’s population is against you ideologically; however, within the domestic United States, you have approximately 50% of voters behind you. Can you win another four years?
