GOP Karnaugh Map

The herd of candidates vying for the 2016 Republican nomination can make it tough to keep track of what distinguishes them. But fret not. Blonzonics has discovered a way to uniquely classify them using only four criteria!

  • Did they announce their run before June 2015?

  • Do they reside in state that was part of the Confederacy during the American Civil War? [1]

  • Were they born in a month without an R? [2]

  • Does the last letter of their surname precede M?

The chart below shows the classification, organized in a stylized Venn diagram known to digital circuit designers as a Karnaugh Map:

See how the chart makes thinking about the candidates so much easier?

Footnotes:
