I am Libertarian.

If Libertarians were consistent, they'd have something.

The Political Compass - Test

 

[Darlene]

I also took another quiz and it said this (which is pretty accurate for me):

Independents do not consider themselves either Democrat or Republican. They generally decide their candidates based upon the issues such candidate stands for rather than the party they supposively represent. Essentially, independents are in the middle of the political spectrum

 

[Disir]

I'm a liberal and Independent.

 

[LoneLaugher]

I feel like I'm watching a movie with too much story exposition.

Libertarians are liberals who want to smoke dope and eat fattening foods.
