She also has "Previous view: Christianity".
That question only pops up if you select the "Atheist" radio button. But you can then select "Non-atheist" and then select "My belief". But the selection for the "Previous view" is still saved.
Perhaps it's this that is fooling the system?

Trump is not presidential and

Trump is not presidential and that's all that really has to be understood. I think even the most academically thinking voter can see that and come to that conclusion. For her own part, though, I'm not observing anything presidential about his opponent and, moreover, the only notoriety she has stems from the churnalism she originated.

For their own overt method of self-demeaning conduct, the Democratic modus operandi during elections is to employ character assassination tactics to the fullest extent when their own candidate is lacking charisma and solid credentials for the office sought. This is SOP from the Democrats and a pretty ugly reflection on the entire party. Be careful. What you portray in character during an election year has staying power, reducing your credibility in all manner of discussion thereafter. Perception is everything.

You are kidding right?

You are kidding right?
1) Hillary Clinton is the most experienced and qualified person to ever run for the office of president in history. So you are clearly wrong on that.
2) The republican party is based on character assassination. "lying Hillary" "ted Cruz's ugly wife". Trump is all about personal assassination and nothing else. There is no substance or reality to his rhetoric.
Hillary has pointed out Trumps track record on business, has called him out on his demagoguery, his bigotry. She has used his own words. It isn't character assassination if it is true. So you're wrong on that as well.

I find Hillary a little

I find Hillary a little distasteful, but of course much better than Trump. Maybe she will pick a nice running mate that will improve the flavor. Warren would be nice. You know who would make a great running mate? Her husband! Probably about 0% chance of that happening but wouldn't it be funny!

He cannot run as VP having

He cannot run as VP having served as Pres. for 8 years. Constitutionally a person can only serve as Pres. for 10 years total mitigated upon the fact that the Pres. before them cannot finish a full term. However if a person serves 2 full terms as Pres. they cannot become VP nor Pres. any longer. Which is odd because they can serve as House Speaker which is inline to serve as Pres. if the Pres. and VP cannot finish the term.

I don't really have any hand

I don't really have any hand in the American Politics (A Voter), I don't really know what Great Casualties Trump will cause if he becomes President. But what I've seen by Following some of his Speeches, I only see a Normal Man, People saying that he Bluntly and adding that as a Factor to his Increase in the Popularity is just Stupid. American People should wake up, it's not about Voting who is more Awesome, it's about Voting for someone that can lead your Country to a Better Future following the way of Understanding and Peace.
I know right now that you're having Trouble deciding which one to go with Hillary (The Corrupted Email-Deleter) or Trump (The Narcissistic Moron).
Trump, as I've seen, really doesn't have the Slightest Idea about Politics and Law. He just bluntly says he's gonna do it like a complete Child (Speaking from Experience here).
While Hillary, more like a Traitor, says she will Innovate the Women's Rights and Lots of Other Things (I don't know much about what she's gonna do), but still she is CORRUPTED.

I know this is HARD, you have to choose between Two Corrupted People.
This is hard to say......But U.S.A citizens are now forced to Choose the Lesser Evil one.
But KNOW this, the PEOPLE have more Power than Any God, King or Emperor.
Should ONE of these Trigger the Crowds to Unrest from Unjust and Corrupted Deeds, there will Surely be a Coup D'etat or Rebellion.

America has already been Viewed as not a very good Country outside it's borders because of it's Ignorance (sometimes) when it Comes to another Country's Sovereignty.

Now, by Personal thinking, I'd rather Choose Hillary, than Trump (=WWIII).
I have to say, Trump is a COMPLETE IDIOT, and I don't want the World to Suffer because of his Stupidity and he ends up in the History Books "The cause of WWIII, One Idiot".

SkyDiVer - "I know right now that you're having Trouble deciding which one to go with Hillary (The Corrupted Email-Deleter) or Trump (The Narcissistic Moron)."

While I don't really like Clinton that much, I don't have much choice. Trump is a birther and an anti-vaxxer; I don't want someone that disconnected from reality to have access to nuclear weapons.

McCain still offers only

McCain still offers only criticism of Trump...
“.... It is time for Donald Trump to set the example for our country and the future of the Republican Party. While our Party has bestowed upon him the nomination, it is not accompanied by unfettered license to defame those who are the best among us..."
http://www.johnmccain.com/statement-john-mccain-regarding-khan-family/

Trump exemplifies the opinions of many in the USA who apparently don't care about the USA's image as long as it has a weak and disreputable leader like Trump.

I can already guarantee you, after a recent....eh....let's say "conversation" with Trump, even Putin seems to be moving from what he called "The America Problem" to focusing on what he calls "The Trump Problem".

In fact, before my move to America, there was a meme begginingnto circle around that featured a picture of an angry Putin, and said something along the lines of "I may be ruthless prick, but at least im not some duck but haired asshole so ignorant that I'd trip over an armed nuke."

Do any contributors here who

Do any contributors here who are not US citizens know anyone who supports Trump? I haven't met anyone who doesn't think he's a egotist, or have some similar or more disparaging view. There is disgust that there's even a competition between someone like that and a serious politician like Ms Clinton, unpopular as she is.

"Egotism" is an inflated sense of one's importance; it's being conceited or vain. The egotist feels superior to others physically, intellectually or in some other way. "Egoism" is a preoccupation with oneself, but not necessarily feeling superior to others.

Mr "I could shoot somebody and not lose votes" Trump is not egotist?!

I am not a US citizen but I

I am not a US citizen but I try to stay abreast on World Politics. I normally don't post related to the politics of other countries but in the case of the US elections i fell for the US public. This time they are faced with a very hard choice. They seem to be stuck between a Rock and a Hard place....

Trump is.... well Trump. and Hilary Clinton is quite untrustworthy with a bad track record in decision making. The problem is that the guy who seemed legit was first rooted out of the elections. (I thought Bernie Sanders had a better chance, but what do I know)

Why is Hilary "quite

Why is Hilary "quite untrustworthy", particularly? I would have thought most people in politics as long as she has been and so closely analysed would look as bad or as good. She seems a nice enough person to me. I know about the e-mail error and her calling half of Trump supporters deplorable, but what's so very wrong with her? And unlike Trump, how can anyone reasonably think she's not a serious politician? I thought we were all in favour of civil AND accurate discourse, where people say what they think without concern for "political correctness"?

Hillary has admitted she made

Hillary has admitted she made mistakes in regards to the emails and Kevin McCarthy/Scott Keys of the Republican party have already told us all we need to know about the Benghazi hearings. She's experienced, collected, is up to date with law/policy and furthermore professional. Did you see Trump when asked about nuclear policy? He had no idea what the current one is and speaking of nuclear... all Hillary had to do to get under his skin was say that he might not be as rich as he says. He simply cannot have the nuclear codes nevertheless be the leading representative of this country.
