It’s a great table but we should consider that there is more to a candidate than their position on issues.
Their experience; their leadership skills; their capability.

Unlike a legislative position where they just vote on things, and positions are paramount in judging, a president hires, fires, and manages a $2.6 trillion budget.

Good voters consider their character, temperment, leadership and ability to articulate and make things happen when choosing a President.

It seems to me that the issue of leadership is addressed in part under the “untrustworthy spinner/flip flopper” category.

Beyond that, I think the table addresses the most important issue of *where* these candidates are likely to lead us.

Yeah, but if he’s a cross-dressing, gun grabbing, abortion/gay rights activist, open borders type guy, then that pretty much rules out his qualifications based on character, temperament and leadership now doesn’t it. I mean, unless that’s where you want to be led.
