Who the fuck are Kent Mesplay and Jill Stein???

Google is your friend --

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kent_Mesplay

"Kent Mesplay (born July 19, 1962) is the California delegate to the
Green National Committee and unsuccessfully sought the 2004 Green
Party Presidential nomination which he lost again in 2008.

"Mesplay was born and raised in Papua New Guinea to Lutheran
Missionary parents. He graduated Valedictorian from Mira Mesa High
School in 1980. In college, he studied Western and non-Western
medicine, earning a Ph.D. in Biomedical Engineering from Northwestern
University and he obtained an undergrad degree in Engineering from
Harvey Mudd College, Claremont, California. After graduate school,
Mesplay suffered through a long period of unemployment as he worked to
develop a funded position for himself at the Veterans Affairs Medical
Center, in Long Beach, California, before moving to La Mesa and
teaching mathematics in the Grossmont Union High School District. He
currently works as an Air Quality Inspector at the Air Pollution
Control District, in San Diego."

OMFG! He went to Harvey Mudd College, the first college I attended.
I will have to vote for this guy if he gets the Green Party
nomination.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jill_Stein

"Jill Stein (born 1950) is an American physician and candidate for
President of the United States in 2012 with the Green Party of the
United States Stein was a candidate for Governor of Massachusetts in
the 2002 and the 2010 gubernatorial elections. Stein is a resident of
Lexington, Massachusetts and a 1979 graduate of Harvard Medical
School. She serves on the boards of Greater Boston Physicians for
Social Responsibility and MassVoters for Fair Elections, and has been
active with the Massachusetts Coalition for Healthy Communities.

"In October 2011, Stein announced her candidacy for the presidential
nomination of the Green Party in the 2012 general election."

Looks like I will be going Green this year. Mesplay has a Ph.D. in
Biomedical Engineering from Northwestern, while Stein is a graduate of
Harvard Medical school. About time we had a President who can be
addressed as Doctor.

You are a moderate Democratic. You are socially and fiscally Liberal.
Despite your slight Democratic stances, you may tend to disagree with
the party on foreign policy issues.

On further inspection, the results of this survey seem somewhat
flawed. I noticed that, in some categories, I agreed with a
candidate's answers on all the questions and yet received a low
compatibility score because I didn't rate some of the issues as high
priorities.

Apparently, my candidate is Kent Mesplay, but I currently have no idea
who he is.

That's not important, as long as you vote for him.

A quick Google search leads me to believe he's the Green Party
candidate, but I didn't spend a whole lot of time trying to verify
that.
