But, I still don't understand the design of this poll. As funny as Steven Colbert's presidential bid was, he dropped out a couple months ago (assuming he was ever really in). Where did these names come from?
They're just ones that came off the top of my head.

Almost any of these would be better than Obama, McCain, and the Hildabeast.

So you'd rather Ralph Nader? Maybe Brian Moore?

Just so we're clear, you'd rather vote for a Green or an actual member of the Socialist Party of America. You really need to get over your derangement syndrome if you would honestly support such fringe whackos over center-left and center candidates.

Contrary to your beliefs, this isn't about left leaning parties, right leaning, green, blue socialist, etc etc etc........
It's about Hillary, Obama or McCain not being what I call legitimate. because of the following:
None of these fools will:
End middle eastern military involvment (even Hillary will not commit to ending military actions in Iraq, by the end of her 4 year term)
End Bush's presidential powers he elected himself
Secure the borders
Deport the Illegals in our prison system
End welfare for illegals
Define life as "beginning at Conception"
Return our monetary system to being backed by something of worth.
End NAFTA or CAFTA
Abolish unconstitutional agentcies and Departments within our Government (Dept. of Education, Transportation, homeland security)
Abolish Social Security taxes
Abolish Income Taxes for nurses & Teachers
Abolish the "tip tax" for the waitress's and waitors who make less than minimum wage
Stop subsidies to foreign countries
Stop corporate welfare
Allow free trade that doesn't allow for higher tarriffs for American exports
Stop the National ID card (Real ID)
Send the Canadian and Mexican trucks back to their own country
Allow tax credits for health care (which goes into effect in May, I believe.. According to Count Down REAL ID )
Stop the Federal Reserve from destroying our Dollar
Stop giving hand outs to mortgage companies that give loans to "unqualified" borrowers
Stop the Federal Government regulations, taxes and corporate subsidies that have distorted the energy market. And allow a "free" market to lower prices through competition.
Allow the 2nd Amendment to stand as the Constitution discribes.
Stop spending from the Social Security trust fund
Allow a more "humble" foreign policy

I hope that clarifies things for you.

I just think it shows your complete and total ignorance if you think Ralph Nader is going to do 90% of these things. Get your head back into reality, buddy.

I don't expect Nader to do all those things. But at least Nader doesn't do what he does for political power and control over people like these three are doing.
Obama, Clinton and McCain do not have American best interest in mind.

This isn't about Ralph Nader or anyone else. This is about those three being president for the wrong reason & wrong plans (or lack of).

So they're only running so they can control people? How sage of you. Didn't you forget your tinfoil hat today?
