btw - perhaps someone shuold go thru the test and hilite the real differences to each question - for example, if u say that its important to have a Resident with military experience - jfk2 and gwb both get an equal 'yes' - altho some people who sed that they thought military service is important, may have presumed that a handful of purple crosses would outrank awol... perhaps someone should chase down every person this email gets forwarded to and follow up with the actual detail of the black box...

the power in this sort of thing is obvious - as jen's mum writes "it is refreshing to see the real issues outlined in a systematic way."
altho she rightly pointed out that it is 'fun' - the problem of course is that something that is fun can become very real all of a sudden. people forget that it was taken in fun, and give undeserved kudos to the weight of a 'fun' exercise. and if i was at my cynical worst, id guess that maybe niether jen nor her mum exist and it is just a gop/freep press release - the language sounds very press releasey "it is refreshing to see the real issues outlined in a systematic way."
i guess it doesnt matter whether they exist or not - the brainwashing effect is the same
