Not at all... Alan keyes is not a authoritarian... Rudy should be right at the top... in the middle, so should hills. Ron Paul should be of course, at the bottom... I really don't agree with any it... lol

I would put Ron Paul a little closer to the center line and Gravel and Kucinich should be much more authoritarian.

The thing is, if people support the state, they HAVE to be near the authoritarian side of the board, as the state IS unquestioned authority.

Im pretty close ideologically with Ron Paul, and my results for this same graph are about 5 or 6 lines down.

If they simulated Thomas Jefferson's answers with any accuracy and results wound up close to RP, then I'd say it isn't bad. As it stands, though, I don't like it. But I suppose it's strictly about political philosophy and there isn't much emphasis on how it's implemented.

This chart look to be a bastardization of the Nolan quiz. Also know as the World's Smallest Political Quiz. It seems to be an attempt to marginalize Dr. Paul. Most probably aimed at Democrats who are taking a hard look at Ron Paul and like what they see.

Below is a link to the original Nolan Quiz. Click on it. You'll see the resulting graph makes much more sense.

I don't think whoever ran this on behalf of RP was answering right on his issues. He should be more left than that.

I took the original one for RP and it turned up full on Libertarian.

I'm on the borderline of left/right - below kucinich/gravel

I always thought he was a right leaning libertarian, basically down 2 on that chart. I personally am a left leaning libertarian.
