This quiz is a good indicator of who you might side with in 2016. It took me about 20-25 mins to take. Covers a lot of issues. I clicked the "Show more questions" for each topic to get a better feel of who I might vote for in 2016.

I got 90% "Constitution Party" and the candidate that I agreed with on most topics was Marco Rubio (86%)

 
Ummmmm.....wrong.

They have me down as the Green party and my candidate is Bernie Sanders. My second choice is Clinton and Bush third.

I do find it funny that I agreed with the Republicans the least.

 
Maybe you just don't realize that you agree with Sanders mostly and the Green party.

My results were very interesting:

Ideology: Centrist

84% Democrat, 75% Green Party, 75% Republican, 73% Constitution Party (I've never heard of it), 66% Socialist and 59% Libertarian

Parties you side with...

Foreign Policy: Democrat

Environment: Green

Immigration: Republican

Domestic: Republican

Economy: Republican

Healthcare: Democrat

Social: Constitution

Education: Democrat

 
Expanding on mine:

Ideology - Centrist (slightly leaning right)

Constitution Party - 89%

Republican Party - 88%

Libertarian Party - 77%

Democratic Party - 61%

Green Party - 53%

Socialist Party - 41%

Parties I side with by issue

Education - Constitution & Republican Parties

Social - Republican Party

Immigration - Republican Party

Foreign Policy - Constitution Party

Healthcare - Democratic Party

Domestic Policy - Libertarian Party

Economy - Republican Party

Environment - Republican Party

 
i also got green party, Bernie Sanders was number 1 and Carly Fiorina was last. Thankfully I don' agree with Cruz or Walker on any major issues either.

 
Green Party (domestic policy, foreign policy, economic, social, healthcare, environmental, and education) - 88%

Socialist (same as above) - 85%

Democrats (domestic, foreign, social, immigration, environmental, and healthcare) - 85%

Libertarians (foreign, domestic, social, and healthcare) - 79%

Constitution (domestic, environmental) - 70%

Republicans (environmental) - 58%

It says I side with Bernie Sanders the most at 76%, with Marco Rubio at 55% and Hillary Clinton at 52%.

 
Hm. It's weird that it's not apparent that "other stances" actually provides a list of other answer choices -- some of which appear basically identical to either 'yes' or 'no.'

For example: Q -- Should a business, based on religious beliefs, be able to deny service to a customer? Why in the world are "No" and "No, all customers deserve to be served and treated equally" different choices? Do they provide different results?...

No, looking at the questions and possible answers and then looking at how I "agreed" with the Green Party and Sanders....ummmm...there is a lot more to these issues than what can be presented in these simple questions. Just an example.

There is a question about..."Do you support raising taxes on the rich to reduce the cost of education to lower income people".

In general, I support lower taxes on everyone as much as possible and smaller government. But, I could support this as I'm fine with reasonably more taxes on the upper class to pay for education and job training so lower income people can raise their household incomes with better jobs. I don't support just any socialist program anyone throws out there.

So, I said yes. BUT, I will guarantee you Ol' Bernie supports what ever tax increases we can push through on those evil rich people to pay for one hell of a lot more than what I would support.

 
I got that I'm 96% Democrat, and I am almost entirely aligned with Bernie Sanders.

My political leaning was a little more to the left of center than when I've taken similar quizzes. Like zoogs, I'm wondering why some of those questions were designed that way. Seemed like a lot of the answers didn't exactly fit my beliefs, but I was too lazy to write a custom answer.

 
I took the test 2x again. The first time by just choosing yes or no buttons and keeping the 'how important is this issue' slide in the middle.

My results then came back wt Constitution party #1 and Repub 2nd. Wt Rubio as my choice.

I then took it a 2nd time and drilled down to choose the other options:

Knapp will laugh at this one or at least say that his "Project Moderation" is working on me. I decided to answer all of the questions again with the most 'moderate' position I could live with. In other words in the best possible world, my head would choose the more conservative choice but since this world isn't ideal and in the real world we never fully get the "perfect" we have to consider a more realistic landing place. So by this measurement - my results were (I'm going to need a physiological evaluation now - trying to figure out how I go from Constitutional Party to these leading 2 parties -- Doctor Knapp what does this mean?

I got 93% Republican and Constitution party and 92% Marco Rubio. I usually check out more libertarian on these deals but not this time. Expectedly, I align least with Sanders, Clinton, and the Democrat party. Idealogically I was a tick right of dead nuts centrist and that was enough of a tick for them to label it as right wing. Fairly accurate I guess although probably should've been above the line leaning libertarian. A little concerned that my 2nd and 3rd's were Rick Santorum and Ted Cruz. I would never vote for either. I don't think this one was structured quite right or it was weighted funny or something.
