Pretty much what I expected, though I thought Paul would be a bit higher.
I'm sure that's gonna solve all of our problems.
I hate to think 70%+ of the GOP voters are just prejudiced uninformed people neglecting to realize more than likely their ancestors were illegal immigrants. I agree, we need a border. But kicking out illegals who already here and hard working individuals supporting their families looking for a better way of life, instead of giving them a proper way to citizenship is... I'm sorry, it's retarded. America was founded on immigration, don't think you're not an immigrant unless you're 100% Native American. This kind've hypocrisy dumbfounds me as how some people from the USA of all nations can be so ignorant(and stupid for a better word).
I think this sums it up pretty well
Bernie Sanders - 86%
Hillary Clinton - 82%
Martin O'Malley - 68%
Mike Huckabee - 39%
Donald Trump - 31%
Rand Paul - 30%
Ben Carson - 28%
Jeb Bush - 27%
Ted Cruz - 19%
Add the two together and you have a somewhat representative picture of American politics. :P
If you're talking about this test then what you're seeing is the shift to a more libertarian sentiment in the US. I have seen people in all 4 quadrants of that test, but most people that are taking that test are finding it exceedingly harder to choose a candidate.
On-topic: I somehow got Hillary, but I would never vote for her. I'm down to Sanders, Paul, or Cruz...
No what we're seeing is a test that purposely puts people in the lower left quadrant. And trust me, a test that makes people say "maybe I should be a liberal and support the liberal guys after all!" is right up my alley, but I'm not going to ignore it just because I'd benefit from it.
While you live, shine / Have no grief at all / Life exists only for a short while / And time demands its toll.
First place: Clinton and Sanders, tied with 95%.
Last place: Ted Cruz, 3%.
I find these results - even the fact of the tie between Clinton and Sanders - completely unsurprising. And I didn't need a quiz to tell me that Cruz and myself are political polar opposites. That man is a danger to the living and the dead.
That Huckabee of all people was the highest ranking Republican candidate was something of a surprise (but, in fairness, at 21% we're not exactly talking sympatico), but that's probably due to some of his more "leftish" stances on economic policy that he hasn't talked about in like 8 years. And probably because I've become a lot less militant in my atheism over the past decade but, then again, Santorum is about as theocratic as Huckabee, lacks most of Huckabee's economic populism, and he registered only 5% agreement.

Correct. Politicalcompass.org was invented by democratic socialists in the UK in order to create a bias against neo-liberalism.
Not that I'm any kind of fan of neo-liberalism, but the quiz is fundamentally dishonest and shouldn't be cited as a reliable means of measuring one's ideological leanings.
95% Hillary, 88% Bernie, 76% O'Malley, 73% Bush.
My least compatible is Carson.
