Well, I'm looking for someone whom's ideology is closest to my own.
For instance, I would like someone who is for abortion (including partial-birth), socialized medicine, legalization of drugs and immediate withdrawal from this terrible war in Iraq.
I'm really wary of anyone who professes faith in God sinse I'm an atheist.
I'm torn between Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton.
Which candidate do you think is a good choice for me?

Like Anderson Cooper said in the YouTube debate, there's not too many people who are to the left of Rep. Dennis Kucinich (D-OH). However, since he only has about 1-2% support, there's absolutely no way he'll be elected President.
As far as who's more liberal between Obama & Clinton? Obama, without a doubt.

i'm no longer likely to completely write off any particular applicants at this degree of the interest. i can disagree with something from each baby-kisser i've got ever seen yet that would not stop me from gazing their platform as an entire photograph. There are some Republicans that i think of have not got an excellent gamble in any respect yet nevertheless i can look returned at McCain & Huckabee and notice how a ways the two one among them went. by no potential could have predicted it so i'm prepared to take heed to what they say and notice how they arrive by the primaries.

A liberal is an adherent of liberalism. The Encyclopedia Britannica will tell you that liberalism is the doctrine that embraces Free Trade, small government, civil liberties, and emphasizes freedom from external restraints. Liberalism limits the power of governments which act as institutions independent of the people's will. To do so liberalism employs the devices of bicameralism,federalism and the separation of powers(judicial,executive,and legislative). Liberalism mistrusts the concentration of power in governments but also the accumulation of wealth and power in private hands and corporate monopolies.
So I would say that the most liberal candidate is Ron Paul.If pressed to name a Democrat,probably Kuscinek(sorry,spelling!!!is probably wrong)
I also really dig Kinky Friedman,the selfstyled Texas Jewboy but unfortunately he's not in the running!!!
The candidate that would be a good choice for you would be Attila the Hun's horse.Grass never grew under its hooves.

Probably Hillary.
Neither Barack nor Hillary is going to withdraw from Iraq.
Neither Barack nor Hillary will profess atheism.
Hillary's puppetmaster (George Soros) is for the legalization of drugs and he is a militant atheist.

Dennis Kucinich or Mike Gravel. Kucinich seems less insane though.

I would say that the most liberal candidate would be John Edwards. But that loser might as well pack it in. Hillary, on the other hand, is the most dangerous with her socialist ideals, and her known history of associating and collaborating with known criminals.
GOD help us if that "woman" ever manages to buy herself into the White House again.

Pat Paulson.
And though he passed away in 1997, he'd STILL do a better job than george w bush.

Clinton voted to support the war so I'd say Obama but as long as you're throwing your vote away why not go green or even libertarian
