It appears to have a really strong Tea Party bias. Paul only receives large numbers when Democrats are factored in as well; some Republicans like him, some Democrats do, but in either one party he won't score well. Bachmann and Palin scoring that high screams Tea Party but in a normal Republican poll Romney would be first with Bachmann slightly lower in second place.

Gallup

This site is a great place to find unbiased polling results. They work on a much larger scale, are constantly updated, and have no bias (unless you read the articles in which class it can vary depending on the writer).



Oh wow, I didn't even notice the third part haha I wasted my time on the analysis. The Tea Party generally aligns with Republican policies and they tend to disagree heavily with Obama's policies (just in case you weren't sure, this stuff is very overwhelming at first).

I hope you have fun getting into politics, it can be overwhelming at first but paying attention to this stuff is very important and I wish you the best.

Wow how ironic... I just made a post that ATS should conduct their own poll.

The matrix is crumbling!

yeah i'd second that notion on an ATS poll, would love to see ats' view.
politics is giving me a headache lol, but im determined to at least understand the basics

WHAT??? NO!!!! Are people insane? If either of those idiots is elected, I will commit suicide by jumping off of the Capital Building, hopefully crushing either of them when I hit the ground, killing them in a murder-suicide scenario.

My mind won't be able to handle the stress of having Bachmann or Palin as president, I will literally go crazy and need to be locked up a mental institution.

Ron Paul seems to be gaining support like a snowball rolling down a hill, especially on this site I've noticed the majority of people like him.

This makes me feel a little better though:

If you want to learn about democrats read Cloward-Piven Strategy of Orchestrated Crisis along with Micheal Moore, Sal Alinsky and Robert Zimmerman. They represent the party lock, stock and barrel. You will need lots of Kool-Aid and a puke bucket.
