I ended up being...

A Hard Pressed Democrat

What They Believe

Very cynical about government
Critical of business
Supportive of the social safety net
View immigrants as an economic burden and a cultural threat
Supportive of environmental protection, but concerned about its economic impact
Pessimistic about their future finances
Socially conservative and very religious

Who They Are

84% are Democrats
More than six-in-ten are female
Largely blue collar; about two-thirds have no formal education beyond high school
One of two groups with a sizeable concentration of African Americans (35%)
Nearly half live in the South (48%), with many others in the Midwest (23%)
More than four-in-ten describe their household as struggling
61% regularly watch network evening news and 44% watch CNN

Based on your responses, YOU are a… Solid Liberal Along with 14% of the public

There was some interesting statistics for 'Solid Liberal':

Best educated of the groups: 49% hold at least a bachelor's degree and 27% have post-graduate experience

And:

59% have a passport

I know from having perused government statistics that some 68% of Americans don't have a passport (I can find the stats again if there is any dispute) - a stat that for me is quite telling of many attitudes toward 'the rest of the world'.

Compare this with 'Staunch Conservative':

Nearly half believe President Obama born outside the United States

54% regularly watch Fox News
More watch Glenn Beck and listen to Rush Limbaugh than any other group

Staunch Conservative

This poll is off some.

Article Four of the United States Constitution: The United States shall guarantee to every State in this Union a Republican Form of Government.

Not a "Democracy". Because we are a Constitutional Republic.


Capitalist Constitutional Republic

[Will E Worm]

Where is Capitalism mentioned in the United States Constitution?

The Constitution certainly implies capitalism throughout all of it's writings and the writings of our founding fathers.
Our country is based on freedom and that is Capitalism.

I **** these kinds of political ID generators. You can not Gauge someone's views accurately via either/or questions.

 

[vodkazvictim]

Solid liberal.
Weird, I had percieved myself going Left as I aged.
Mind you, the Left is dead in America.

That's why I said the poll is off. All polls do is generalize.

Public opinion polls are created to generate an opinion they want people to have. Polls really mean nothing.

Polls are okay to make on message boards sometimes.

WooHoo! Solid Liberal. :nanner:

The best way to ensure peace is through military strength

Good diplomacy is the best way to ensure peace

I didn't like this one because I believe in both equally, but could only choose one.

It is a tough one. But without a strong military, an essential support for diplomacy is lost. After all, why negotiate for something when you can take it?
