| Candidate | Life | | Pursuit of happiness | National Security | Score |

| Mike Huckabee | 1 | 0 | 1/4 | 1 | 2+1/4 |
| Rudy Giuliani | 0 | 2/3 | 1/2 | 1 | 2+1/6 |
Here is how I arrived with these results. I gave everybody 1 full point for nat'l security because I believe any of these 6 candidates will serve much better than any D in this area. For the Liberty and Property columns I relied on some of the Club for Growth white papers categories on these candidates. The Liberty column is based on the categories 'political free speech', 'school choice', and 'regulation'. The Property column is based on the categories 'entitlement reform','free trade', 'taxes', and 'spending'. For the Life column I checked the National Right to Life website, and Rudy is the only 1 who is not pro life. Below are results of these candidates on this quiz.
