Glassbooth is a simple survey that shows you which presidential candidate shares views most similar to yours.

According to Glassbooth, I am most like Ron Paul (74%) but also similar to Mike Huckabee (71%) and Tom Tancredo (69%).

It also allows you to compare yourself to the other candidates. For example, I'm only 29% similar to Hillary Clinton. An intuitive interface allows you to explore the different issues you were rated on and actually shows why you are similar to a certain candidate. This is possibly one of the most creative websites about politics I have ever seen as well as an excellent example of interface design overall.

Oh, great.  My highest was Ron Paul (who now?) at 71%, but he's so different on health care that there's no way I'd vote for him.  So I guess there just aren't any candidates similar to me.

Ron Paul has actually been discussed on the forum before. At 72, he's probably the furthest removed from our generation by age (and closest to dying), yet he's doing more to connect with the internet generation than any other candidate.

How did I get the same one as both of you?  This election sucks.  I say we resurrect George Washington and start all over.

Duncan Hunter 81%, Tom Tancredo 81%, Mike Huckabee 76%.  We mainly conflict over gun control, surprise, surprise.  I think I like this Hunter guy, even though I've never heard of him.

Oh, yes, good plan.  Let's go back to the 13 colonies & no air conditioning & live the last 200-some-odd years all over again.

This Mike Huckabee advert totally blows campaign desktop themes out of the water.
