A fun post that will challenge your ideas.

Today I am going to post a fun little test. It is a test that strikes at the very heart of many of our beliefs and thoughts. It will test your ideas, your knowledge of history. I will post full details on this test in the next few days with an update.

Meanwhile take the test, I’m not going to ask for your choice or anything of the sort. Read both descriptions of the candidates you have to choose from before deciding who you would vote for. Consider the descriptions carefully but most of all have fun with it as it challenges us all to seriously consider how we have ans will vote November 5th.

Any thoughts, comments or reactions would be appreciated.

Here goes: Who would you vote for?

Candidate A is "a well-known critic of government, this man has been involved in tax protest movements, and has openly advocated secession, armed rebellion against the existing national government, and even the overthrow of that government. He is a known member of a militia group that was involved in a shoot-out with law enforcement authorities. He opposes gun control efforts of the present national government, as well as restrictions on open immigration into this country. He is a businessman who has earned his fortune from such businesses as alcohol, tobacco, retailing, and smuggling."

Candidate B is "A decorated army war veteran, this man is an avowed nonsmoker and dedicated public health advocate. His public health interests include the fostering of medical research and his dedication to eliminating cancer. He opposes the use of animals in conducting such research. He has supported restrictions on the use of asbestos, pesticides, and radiation, and favors government-determined occupational health and safety standards, as well as the promotion of such foods as whole-grain bread and soybeans. He is an advocate of government gun-control measures. An ardent opponent of tobacco, he has supported increased restrictions on both the use of and advertising for tobacco products. Such advertising restrictions include: [1] not allowing tobacco use to be portrayed as harmless or a sign of masculinity; [2] not allowing such advertising to be directed to women; [3] not drawing attention to the low nicotine content of tobacco products; and, [4] limitations as to where such advertisements may be made. This man is a champion of environmental and conservationist programs, and believes in the importance of sending troops into foreign countries in order to maintain order therein."
