      Well, not answering the immigration questions won't cause the quiz to label you a 'libertarian'. So if that's what Al meant, he's wrong.

          These questions are phrased too generally to make any kind of sense. This survey is worthless.

Build your funeral pyre; beside it, my carpenters will build a gallows. You may follow your custom. And then we will follow ours."--General Sir Charles James Napier

            Sure there is....keep the darkies working for the man (on the cheap) in Philly ...


            Best of both worlds innit?

                Solid liberal.

                I agree that it is a simplistic test, presenting only polar opposites and allowing for no nuance.

                    I wonder what our Western friends would score on average on a Euro political test.... let's see if I can find one in English.

                      Here's a 'visual' Dutch one. While in Dutch, the pictures are pretty clear.



                      Two thumbs up if you wholly agree, and so forth.

                        I had a hard time figuring out what some of those questions were supposed to mean, so I don't know how accurate this is:

                            if this is correct you're inclined to vote for socialist ideals.

                                Libertarians

                                9% of the public
                                What They Believe

                                * Economically very conservative but moderate to liberal on social issues

                                Who They Are

                                * Strong Republican-orientation, though a majority identify as independents
                                * Affluent: 39% have incomes of $75,000 or more
                                * Two-thirds are male
                                * 85% are non-Hispanic whites
                                * About seven-in-ten (71%) have attended college
                                * About half as likely as the two strongest GOP groups to attend church weekly
                                * 56% use social networking sites
                                * 36% trade stocks
                                No, I did not steal that from somebody on Something Awful.
