Yes, but he might also not have liked being a vegetarian, or had "Snow White" as his favorite movie. It's true that when conditions change, results change - but not always as we expect.

This is an interesting experiment. There were similar ones running around for Bush and Gore four years ago, and Clinton/Dole before that (although the Internet was a much smaller community at the time). Like others have said, incomplete information can really throw you off. The Devil is in the details, and all that. Here's another one:

Quote:
Candidate 1:
-Went AWOL when in the military
-Has owned several failed businesses
-Habitual philanderer in his 30s
-Known for drug use
-Poor student in college.

Candidate 2:
-Refused to serve in the military due to objector status
-Has never needed a financial bailout
-Never known to cheat on his significant other
-Eagle Scout
-Above-average student in college


Scroll down.....





















Candidate 1 is George W. Bush.

Candidate 2 is shapu.


Potentialities and off-the-cuff possibilities anger me. I'm going to go have a beer now.

Since it's meant to be thought provoking, I think it has some right to have partial and flawed information.

Bu..Uh--Duh--*noise*! Beethoven almost singlehandedly bridged the classical period [think Mozart, Haydn] to the romantic period [think Tchaikovsky, Schubert, Schumann] by combining emotion and passion with the classic sonata form! Life without the romantic period would be so tragic!

[The above is somewhat tongue-in-cheek :D]

My mom passed that along to me a while ago, and I'd seen it before that.

My original answers:
Q1: It's her choice.
Q2: Not enough information: personal characteristics have little to do with government skills. I'd need to know their positions in issues.

I can spot a trick question a mile away. :P

I knew it was trick question. Morality and past has only part to do with choosing a leader. Especially when you take it out of context.

Wow. Even if that information is 'flawed', it still makes you think.

But that in itself is debatable (which we won't start here).


Don't be afraid to see the truth, even if no one wants you to. Be yourself and not a fool. Don't ever be afraid to speak your mind and listen to criticism. Dissent is keeps our country progressive and willingness to challenge yourself is what keeps yourself ever evolving.

Actually, I thought that according to the story, God gave Noah the plans for the ship... so would that make God an amateur? o_O

Nevermind. That's a whole different topic, and probably one for the debate board at that. :P

Anyway, as Star said, we need to get off this now.

And shapu, you have my vote if you decide to run. XD

I wanted to be the first to make comments on the ark thing =.=

Anyway, quizes like that are a load of crap as they show only one side, why dont we try changing hitlers to something like:

Used Methamphetmine drugs
Killed his own dog
Was responsible for millions of deaths
Has a habit of firing skilled workers
Was never elected to power

or something, and do the Churchill one with good points.

Bleh.

Yes, but the point is to show that you shouldn't jusge something on just the information you have. You should try and gather more information and make a more informed decision.

Sorry, but doesnt anyone see the problems associated with Noah building an ark with two of every animal on it?

- There are loads of animals. Thus he would need a chuffing massive ship to carry them all on
- All these animals need loads of food. So the ship would have to be even bigger to hold this
- Jaguars didnt emmigrate from south america to the middle east

Thus, a man built a boat when it flooded one time, that is all.
