I've always found things like this to be grossly oversimplified, but what the hell:
1. Your ideal theoretical candidate. (100%)
2. Bush, President George W. - Republican (60%)
3. Libertarian Candidate (56%)
4. Kucinich, Rep. Dennis, OH - Democrat (52%)
5. Dean, Gov. Howard, VT - Democrat (45%)
6. Kerry, Senator John, MA - Democrat (43%)
7. Sharpton, Reverend Al - Democrat (38%)
8. Edwards, Senator John, NC - Democrat (35%)
9. Phillips, Howard - Constitution (35%)
10. LaRouche, Lyndon H. Jr. - Democrat (34%)
11. Socialist Candidate (24%)
12. Gephardt, Rep. Dick, MO - Democrat (24%)
13. Clark, Retired General Wesley K., AR - Democrat (23%)
14. Lieberman, Senator Joe, CT - Democrat (21%)
I find it interesting that Bush scored as high as he did, or for that matter that any candidates scored as high as they did. I'm disturbed that Phillips scored higher than Clark (my favorite of the Democrat candidates), or for that matter that Clark scored so low.
I'm not surprised to see Bush come out ahead of the Democrats, though I did not expect his score to be that high (I do consider him the 'lesser evil', which should according to this poll put him in the 50s).
And, as I said before, I think this is oversimplified.

1. Bush 60%
2. Lieberman 52%
Those were along my lines of thinking if I were to vote in the Yanks' election. But I still don't really like anyone. The lesser evil, as it were.

It's kind of interesting how this logic must work. How is Clark next to LaRouche and Howard Dean next to Bush?

As usually happens on these kinds of polls, there were questions I really couldn't answer. For example, the drug legalization question was all or nothing, and the War on Terror/Civil Liberty question talked about random searches and reading e-mail. I would have answered yes if it asked about it in a more realistic way. As it was, I didn't know what to check.
And how did Kucinich end up before Dean and Clark? In reality, Lieberman would be my choice after Bush.

Heh.. I think it's just based on issues and what the candidate supports.
I don't even know who is Wesley Clark. Guess I'll be voting for him.

Nope, I live in the US and have no idea who Wesley Clark is. I'm sure most people in the US don't know who he is.
You only hear of Howard Dean on the news. I've only heard of Wesley Clark on the news like a few weeks ago. Don't know what he looks like.

On Fox News they said that in a recent poll only 20% of people know that Wesley Clark is a general. Or maybe it was Iowans
