I found this old thread while searching for something else, so I might as well post....

Anyway, I voted "Different Party", for it seems to fit best with where I stand politically. I'm actually nonpartisan, which means I vote for the person, and not the party. I feel Democrats and Republicans both have ideas I like as well as ideas I don't like, making me pretty much moderate. I'm sure that there is a third party that combines some of these ideas. Someone suggested Libertarian, and I'm seeing other parties emerging for those of us who appreciate the best of both main parties. Still trying to read up on them, though.

Radical liberal democratic socialist!


Hmmm. This seems confirms my opinion that for a country the size of the US it is futile for just two parties to try to fairly represent all shades of political opinion. The mere fact that posters have been talking about this or that shade of Republican or Democrat pretty well points out that there is a need that is not being answered, I would suggest.

I am a conservative Republican but with some idiosyncratic views. I'm hawkish on foreign policy and strongly conservative on most social issues but rather more moderate (but still conservative) on economics.

Well, with simple majority ruling that leaves 49% ignored. But...with the majority being influenced by a small minority (press and lobbyist), that leaves the majority of the majority being misrepresented. 100%-(majority+minority)= (press and lobbyist). Press and lobbyist work for a boss, who works for a company or organization, who's ran by the MAN. Behind every man there's a woman and behind every woman there's OPRAH!^_^

No, you don't call yourselves a democracy. Some people in your country who don't know anything about political systems call themselves a democracy, but that doesn't make it so. You are a republic. May I ask how you've come to this conclusion, that although neither country is a democracy, the US is "more" of a democracy than the Russian Federation is?
Oh, knock it off. For some reason, in the last year or so, certain Republicans and Libertarians have decided to chide anyone who says America is a democracy - does it make them feel superior or something? - but the US is a representative democracy whether they admit it or not.

Liberal Liberal.

I put down Liberal Democrat. I consider myself a Democrat although sometimes I am heavily annoyed by the party itself.

In practice, I tend to be more Socialist.

Also, keep in mind Milla that some conservatives say that Fascism and Communism are the same thing which also displays a strong lack of knowledge regarding politics.

I'm hard to define, but I think somewhere between Left Libertarian, Libertarian Socialist, and Social Democrat is probably safest labels to use. I generally use "Left Libertarian" or "Libertarian Socialist", sometimes anarcho-socialist of some sort. I'm kinda a mix of Thomas Paine, Noam Chomsky, with bits of Bakunin and Marx in the mix. Left Libertarian and Libertarian Socialist kinda cover all that ground, so those labels probably work best for me.
