It's important not to think of it linearly left-right, because it's more like a graph: left(communism)-right(neo-liberalism) horizontally and authoritarian-libertarian vertically.

This actually tells you how much you agree with each candidate which was pretty darn helpful to me when deciding who I agreed with. It surprised me that I agreed 97% with Julian Castro who I had never payed attention to before. After that I started listening more closely to what he said and I started to realize that I liked him. Of course the DNC had to come shove their big moderate ass in the middle of things and nominate Creepy Uncle Joe. I guess now it's between picking the worse of two evils.

I just hope Joe picks a good VP
