With all these labels being tossed around in regards to political affiliaitons, I thought it would be nice to actually look further into the political views of our fellow members.

I'm sure some people have taken this before, as have I, but I figure it's about time to bring it up again. Take the test and please don't forget to vote in the poll after taking the test, based on the following chart:

TAKE THE TEST (http://www.digitalronin.f2s.com/politicalcompass/questionnaire.php)
ANOTHER TEST (http://www.self-gov.org/quiz.html)

To post my results I had to do an ALT+Print Screen, so you can do that too if you want, just try not to make the image huge.

My Political Compass:
Economic Left/Right: 0.63
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -4.56

I have to ask my friend where she got this one test where it acutally tells you what you are on a similar graph. I thought the test was much better.

Your political compass
Economic Left/Right: -1.00
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: 1.74

Some of the questions were too vague...they required more explanation. I tend to be more conservative most of the time...but I do have some liberal tendencies on some issues.

EDIT: Here is the other one.

Too lazy to get the stats/pic so lets just say I'm pretty close to Ghandi.

little to the left, little to the top.

with the lack of a 'I dont' really care' button, that's about as close as I guess I'd get to being neutral.

Let me find another test...

http://www.self-gov.org/quiz.html is "the world's smallest political quiz". 10 questions, pretty simple.

Social liberal, economic conservative.

There should be 4 presidential campaigns for this reason. Republican tickets are conservative socially and economically. Democrats are liberal socially and economically. Those are the founding two parties, however, there should be a new party that is socially liberal and economically conservative, as well as a party that is socially conservative and economically liberal(although that can't really happen, but you catch my drift).

So you've got economic plans A and B, as well as social plans C and D

Republicans get A and C.
Democrats get B and D.
New Party #1 gets A and D.
New Party #2 gets B and C.

Yay for logic, hope you all followed it.

Edit: By the way, I voted for NBA great Michael Jordan in the 2004 Presidential Election.

I find it disturbing that I am very close to Shlup politically. I must be drunk.

I took this little evaluation in 12th grade Government class. I purposely answered the questions so that the result would show that I was Authoritarian Right. People thought I was a Nazi for the rest of the day. :D

I knew there was something at least remotely resembling common sense about you. *refrains from cuddling*

The only thing non-common sense about me is what a hot ass I have.

First 'test' of the sort that I've taken, but the results weren't that unexpected.
