OK Angelspintards, let's vote

[Angelsjunky]

I thought it would be amusing to get a clear idea of the voting demographics of Angelspintards (myself included).

 

Here's the rules. Pick your top three presidential candidates. #1 votes get 5 pts, #2 get 3 pts, #3 gets 1 pt. Let's see who becomes the president for Angelspinland.

 

You can't vote for someone who has dropped out, which means no O'Malley, Christie, Fiorina, Huckabee, Santorum, etc. Also, no joke votes - no Vermin Supreme, the ghost of Frank Zappa or Reagan's exhumed corpse. That said, you CAN vote for serious non-Dem/Rep candidates like Gary Johnson, even if they have no chance in real life. This is about getting a sense of the demographics of this forum.

 

And please, vote. Don't be shy - no one will mock you. I hope.

 

Me:

1. Bernie

2. Hillary

3. Stein

Actually don't know who I'm going to vote for.  Won't be Hillary or Trump.  And by the time the primaries for CA comes along, it'll probably be only 2 or 3 candidates left for each party.  So just going to wait it out

[Angelsjunky]

Fair enough. But let say you had to vote RIGHT NOW among the available candidates in a 1-2-3 fashion. Who would it be?

 

In other words, play along, gotbeer!

[Spirit]

1) Gary Johnson

2) Michael Bloomberg (yes, he's getting in)

3) Jill Stein

[Lhalo]

1) Gary Johnson

2) Ron Paul

3) Adam

[nate]

1 Johnson

2 Kasich

3 Bush

1) Gary Johnson

2) Michael Bloomberg (yes, he's getting in)

3) Jill Stein

 

Jill Stein, Geoff? I'm surprised. Anyhow, I forgot about her. Kasich is my favorite of the Republicans - least offensive - but I should change my vote to her as #2.

I don't recall ever hearing of Gary Johnson. 

 

I just googled him and don't recognize him.

 

There's just too much info in this world to soak up.

[mtangelsfan]

1.  Gary Johnson

2. Kasich

 

Sorry, no number three for me.

I scanned GJ's wiki. Interesting candidate. I see the good but what is it people don't like about him?

He can't win.

1. Gary Johnson 

 

That's honestly all I have because I don't know much about Kasich and right now I don't see any situation where I'm voting for Trump, Hillary or Sanders.

Why are you surprised?  I've said over and over again that I would vote for anyone before I would vote for a D or an R.  

 

You think the rich are ruining this country.  I think our two party system is. 

[Spirit]

Gary Johnson is the runaway favorite here at AngelsSpin!

I could never vote for someone who would shut my business down.

 

If he runs again, Virgil Goode might be my third choice.

Those are the only 3 non-R's or D's announced so far, so that's what I went with.

I'll get lynched for this, but I wouldn't object to a Hilary presidency. She checks most of the boxes for me: very smart, very experienced, has the required temperament, has the balls for the job, and is politically moderate.

My objection to her is her lengthy ties to the establishment and the fact that she is a political whore (I.e., she will say/do anything to get elected). But I guess she is no different than any of the others in that regard. I also worry about her age (I think she'd be the second oldest president elected to a first term).

That being said, Jeb is my first choice.

A simple poll would have worked but I guess socialists need to know who their enemies are.

I hear you.  I wouldn't blame you for picking her over the group that is being shoved down our throats.

[Tank]

1. kasich - i like someone who's been a governor. better experience than being a senator.

2. 

3. trump - a lot of things would have to happen/fall apart for this to happen. there's no way i'm voting for hilary or the bern.

[Tank]

that's because he won't advertise. i find it ridiculous that at a time when the presidency is ripe for the picking, most of the country won't vote for johnson because he does nothing to get his name out there. it's silly.

[Schildog]

aj and juan have to be the same person.

[Spirit]

Well, if everyone else got hit by a bus and she was the only one left, I'd probably just write-in Adam.

If that's the case I think he doesn't want to win the crown. He probably just runs silently to make business connections and prop up his social status/legend. He seems like a smart, independent and calculating person. To compete he knows he has to spend but he doesn't. 

[ABC]

1. Bloomberg

2. Obama

3. Bill

4. Hillary/Romney

5. Bern

6. Arnold

7. Jeb!
