This is just a straight out question. What's your political party?

Mine's democrat. I can't stand all those pompous and stupid Republicans.

I dunno, I cant vote yet so I havent put much thought into it. I suppose green

Good no Republicans so far

Middle of the Road's the way to go.

In this election, I'm hoping for Kerry win. I think it's just time for a change.

How liberal of you.

Wait, the Dems aren't too liberal.

I guess Democrat.


Though, I'm kind of liberal.

This is just a straight out question. What's your political party?


For the record:

Republican = Conservative
Democrat = Moderate
Green = Liberal
Independent = Independent

(in case you didn't know)

Sometimes the neocons like to describe the democrats as liberal, which is laughable, as to REAL liberals, democrats are conservative and republicans are... well... Nazis... :lol:

politicalcompass.org has a great political map.
Not to be a cheapass self serving liberal minded person, but while Bush and Kerry are off next to Hitler, the Green party is chilling with gandhi, Jesus, and Nelson Mandela. 8)

You forgot the Dalai Lama. Anyone with that many lives cannot be that bad

*sigh* So you're telling me that by politicalcompass.org I most agree with the Green party? Crap. I just can't bring myself to vote for their candidates.

You guys can also hang with your Pal Uncle Joe.

Democrat = Liberal

Green = UBER-SUPER-OMEGA Liberal

Isn't he dead?

Although some trivia, My mum was born on the day Stalin died.

Do I believe in reincarnation?
I do now. :wink:

Centrist!

I'm a registered Democrat (or so I think... I still haven't gotten my voter registration card back yet), but I've been an independent for so long that I still think of myself as one.

well i'm registered as a liberal but i tend to lean to the left.

Wha'?...

Australia?

Independant is not a party at all.
The Green Party is not a major party.
There are no Greens in congress. In 2000, Nader was not on the ballot in most states and finished with only 2.7%.
The Libertarian party is larger than Green in most respects.
The Reform Party did even better than either, with 8% in 1996 And Perot received 19 million votes in 1992, as an independant.

Australia?

lol No. I'm american. i know in australia "liberal" means the opposite of what it means in the U.S. i have an australian friend who happens to be a liberal and it's funny that we both label ourselves liberals but have completely opposite opinions about politics.

well i'm registered as a liberal but i tend to lean to the left.

Australia?

Or the UK?

And that brings up the confusion between "big L Liberals" and "smal l liberals". The first are members of the Liberal party and are "classical liberals", meaning right. The second are leftists.

8) I used to consider myself a Democrat for the longest time. However Nader in 2000 showed me the error in my ways.

Real change won't happen with the current structure the way it is. We need a viable third, or even fourth party.

So I guess I'm Green.
