Brief survey about 2016, right and left wanted!
For anyone interested. Note it is also posted on /r/SurveySize, a group with a decidedly liberal slant. Try to keep your opinions as genuine as possible. Thanks to any & all who participate. This is just for fun. I know there are probably parts you may not like, but honestly I just made this in a few minutes and thought the results might be interesting.

At the end there is an option to view previous responses. You can also do so here:

Thanks to any & all who participate -- it's just for fun, so keep that in mind and please don't get too grumpy in this thread! 04-cheers 03-drunk

Even a vast majority of libs don't find Hillary trustworthy, although that's a very small sample.

Well, as a lib, I would say I am more on the unsure side of it. Though lean towards untrustworthy. She is talking the talk, but her background really doesn't line up as well as you would expect it to. And Benghazi (whatever happened) still makes me a bit cautious.

A lot of my friends and family who are more liberal are sort of ambivalent about her. I think a lot of people feel she's not particularly trustworthy, but then again you're back to the (silly) idea of "the lesser evil" for a lot of people.

The most telling thing here is that the overwhelming number of Libs that have taken this poll...LOVE Bernie Sanders. As I have contended for decades most of them are closet Socialists.

That's because they think socialism works.

I almost want Sanders to win the nomination. It would validate that once and for all.

How much evidence do they need?

Trustworthy may be considered on a couple of levels. I chose to consider it as "will do what they say."

On that basis, I consider Bernie Sanders trustworthy regardless of the fact I disagree with him about everything.

Hillary on the other hand, is untrustworthy because I have no idea what she'd do as President. Heck, I don't think Hillary has any idea what she'll do if she is elected.

They're not in the closet anymore. They're hanging the red flags with the hammer & sickle as we speak.

They always respond by saying things like, "The Soviets had their hearts in the right place. They just didn't do it very well. But we're smarter; we can make it work".

No. I would vote for Sanders, as the only candidate willing to break up "too big to fail/jail" banks. Opposition to TARP bailouts was also the early cause of the Tea Party, before Dick Armey turned it into his dick army.

I wanted to see banksters in orange jumpsuits, not paying (relatively) tiny tax-deductible fines.

Should have been more clear - I only included the candidates who have officially announced. Jeb Bush was a bit unclear, but since he isn't a candidate yet I left him out.
