[Campaigns-l] interesting quiz for political party selection

[Brian Reilly]

Rob, I'm going to start a topic in the forums about Nationalism later today
or tomorrow, specifically its usefulness in forming people into a society. I
don't want to take this mail thread off-topic.

As for the usefulness of quizzes like this, I think something better is
required to use the internet to engage people in the political process.
Something like ....a wiki. Interactive, information rich, and more
sophisticated than a simple quiz. Yes or No answers aren't good enough.
