Don't Vote

[Humdizzy]

A nice little test to see if people should be eligible to vote. I'm thinking this should be mandatory.

http://www.dontvote.org/

I got a D. I shouldn't vote.

DontVote.org's mission is to combat the "Get out the Vote" movement that is pushed by organizations that would like to increase the number of uneducated voters to help their cause. DontVote.org encourages people to Vote, but only AFTER they have educated themselves on the policies and individuals for which they are voting. Voting should be considered a privilege and exercised with responsibility and discretion. Just like a final exam, responsible voting requires self-education and thought. When the time comes to cast your ballot, if you don't know for what or whom you're voting, then DON'T VOTE.

You scored 334 out of 350 possible points, or 95.43%

A
You should definitely vote.


I only got one wrong and that was "Nancy Pelosi, Minority Leader, United States House of Rep.", both sections so I lost 16 points.

:tu:

I got a B+

Disappointing seeing real Americans getting D's etc while people like myself and Rob from the UK getting B's and A's =/

Instead of voting, you should consider moving to France.

Wow, harsh words.

I believe that one does not have to know all of politics to vote. Instead, as long as you are passionate about what you are voting for. So, let's say you are 100% against the war. If you decide to vote for a president that is against the war because you are passionate about that subject I believe you should. Although I would recommend that you do some research to see what else the person offers, I think it is a shame that people get bashed for "blind voting". In the end it is all the same anyways.

Oh yeah, UK - 2, US - 0. :D

I don't see the point in voting anyway, you're sure to get a complete idiot no matter what happens. That's what politics is all about, voting for out-of-touch, clueless idiots.

Now if B33R was running, it would be a whole different story...

B33R for President! :tu:

B33R - the answer to all your problems :hehe:

I'm pretty sure the only few I had right were Madonna, George Bush, etc.

I got the go ahead to vote. Unfortunately there is no polling station in my country so I will have to pass.

I have trouble understanding how identifying the faces associated with often unclothed celebrities qualifies me to vote(gotta stop hanging around those celebrity skin sites).Furthermore I would dispute some of the answers given such as Christine Aguilara being a musician. LOL

What seemed to be missing were contempory issues such as war,economy,education,
foreign relations, immigration, employment etc.

Is this site serious or just for fun?

 

[Humdizzy]

I just think the site is trying to test if you actually know who you are voting for and that if someone like Martin Sheen showed up on the ballot and you thought he looked like a really nice political figure you would know not to vote for him because he's only an actor.

It's basically just testing if you actually know the people you are voting for, giving in an educated vote on election day and that you aren't just voting for anyone just to be voting.

You should update your knowledge and then vote.

Not to bad IMO, but I agree that I do need a little refresher course especially when it comes to the Senators, Congressmen, and UN officials. It's a nice little quiz though - thanks for sharing!
