There's been a lot of talk on tv and in the papers about what 'sort' of person the President should be - what sort of character, what type of personality and so on - but it's been mostly based on opinion and guesswork.

I want to find out what people actually think of the candidates, what sort of impressions we are forming of them, and what we think of their personalities.

So, over on Candidate.ie I've started a survey asking people what sort of personalities they imagine the different candidates have. There's only a few questions so it should only take you about three or four minutes to fill it in.

Some really, really interesting answers so far!
