Which candidate would you like to be marooned on a desert isle with?
Hands down for me - John Edwards. Wesley Clark, very close second. John Kerry third.

Edwards is smart and giving, so he would contribute to our survival. Clark goes in the top tier on this one. And Kerry.

Sunny outlook, optimism: Edwards bigtime. Clark good too. Kerry - pragmatic optimism.

Just plain fun - shooting coconuts through hoops - Edwards.

1. Have you ever read the Army Survival Manual?
Clark, then Kerry. Wait, Kerry, then Clark.

2. Clark or Kerry..
Presumably they learned some survival skills in the military. On the other hand,a doctor might come in handy:)

8. Edwards is such an honorable guy, and I don't
think I could handle being marooned on an island with him if he still considered himself married to his wife. :-)

Clark, he's had Ranger training. I'm sure he could McGyver anything we needed.

Then Dean I guess. Living in Montpelier is kinda like camping isn't it? JUST KIDDING!!;-)

On edit: had the capital of Vermont wrong, oops

15. Al Sharpton
First of all, he's very intelligent and well read. I would enjoy the deep philosophical conversations.

Second, I need to learn to speak eloquently and would bug him for lessons in public speaking.

Third, his humor would help get us through the ordeal.

19. Nobody but Clark
I'd want to be with somebody they'd be looking for. The survival skills come in handy in the meantime.
