Another political quiz type thingy! For those who love to be told what they think!

[Dauphin]

Assuming I lived in America...

New Prosperity Independent.

Well-educated (40% have a college degree), affluent (almost four-in-ten earn at least $75,000), young (70% less than age 50), and male (64%). Less religious (only 15% go to church weekly

3 out of 4 right there. One is so-so.

Liberal Democrat

As a Liberal Democrat, I'd accuse you of racism in condescending manner, but I'm too busy preparing to go to welfare office with my live-in homosexual lover, who is an abortion doctor to scam taxpayer money I can use to buy copies of Humanist Manifesto and make firebombs for coming anti-free trade protest.

Good one, Stefu.

I got Moderate Republican. Due to some pro-environmentalist leanings, belief that some government isn't too bad, lack of religion, and my apathy towards homosexuality.

[kolpo]

lin demo, logical with my left winged pro civil rights view.

[HisMajestyBOB]

Defining Values:
Pro-business, pro-military, pro-life, anti-gay and anti-social welfare with a strong faith in America. Anti-environmental. Self-defined patriot. Distrustful of government. Little concern for the poor. Unsupportive of the women's movement.

Some of thats not true, but these types of quizes are just BS. And whats with the Judgement Day question?

[Kassiopeia]

From the test:

The government should do more to help needy Americans, even if it means going deeper into debt

Now, why would I want my goverment to help Americans? Would that not be the matter of the US goverment?

The test informs me that I am a Liberal Democrat. I expected nothing else.

I was a disaffected

but when I read over the list of what makes a dissaffected I had chosen differently many times

I think I was put there just because I don't belong anywhere else (and I don't like the corporate/political situation)

*Someone* can't code correctly....

Defining Values:
Distrustful of government, politicians, and business corporations. Favor creation of third major political party. Also, anti-immigrant and intolerant of homosexuality. Very unsatisfied financially.

Who They Are:
Less-educated (only 8% have a college degree) and lower-income (84% make less than $50,000). Half are between the ages of 30-49. Second only to Partisan Poor in number of single parents.

Top Priorites for the Next President:
Social Security (27%)
Education (19%)

Top Issues and Concerns in the 2000 Election:
Not having enough money for retirement (92%)
Being unable to afford health care for a sick family member (91%)
Adding prescription drug benefits to Medicare (91%)
Being unable to put a child through college (85%)
Using payroll taxes for private retirement accounts (82%)

Analysis:
The Disaffecteds feel completely estranged from both parties. This financially pressured and pessimistic group is not only dissatisfied with the ability of politicians to help improve things, but also has less faith in America in general.

Hey Natan, apparantly that's what I should be doing as well. Maybe we should form one of those white, Protestant, homophobic, money-counting clubs.

I beleive I had the same issue Ramo

I think they just throw you there if they can't anywhere else

so just feel proud they cannot place you

Jon Miller

[Ramo]

That's probably true...

[Felch]

Wow, that's nice to know that since I'm a libertarian and am opposed to government interventionism, I'm also a old, married, anti-gay, Protestant, who considers morality to be the top priority in an elected official.

Overall, an excellent poll that came really close to getting the real, 18 year old, single, Roman Catholic, who considers homosexuality to be just fine in other people and who loves nothing more than to smoke copious amounts of weed.

This thing is pathetic. It just reveals PBS's own belief that bigoted-ass Republicans are the same thing as blotto, pot-head, Libertarians.

[Clear Skies]

Well, aside from being a test deigned solely for Americans and not taking into account the face that some of us can't vote yet...

I got Liberal Democrat. Not bad, considering I've just joined the party of the same name over here in the UK. It's the label I think fits me, so I'll wear it.

[Rex Little]

"New Prosperity Independent", which I guess is as close to libertarian as this poll recognizes. It's not much more bogus than most of the other polls I've seen here, and better than some.
