Where Do You Stand on the Issues?

[October]

I've taken that before, see my sig

sorry my isg is not showing for some reason..

96% Green - 81% Democrat - 77% Socialist - 69% Libertarian - 43% Republican - 25% Don't Really Care!

.

While I like Gary Johnson, after seeing a few of these over the years I strongly suspect most of them are produced by the Libertarian Party to illustrate to people how the party isn't as non-mainstream as publicized.

.

That is exactly what it is. It avoids asking questions about policies of the Libertarian Party that 98% of Americans would disagree with.

It is a bogus poll.

"Do you like ice cream? Then YOU agree with Gary Johnson!!!"

.

What questions would those be?

 

[October]

I knew I would rank high with Democrats and Socialists, I was surprised how high aligned with the green party! That would be Jill Stein.

 

[Lakhota]

98% Democrat

96% Green

28% Libertarian

3% Republican

 

[October]

The one I took was better it included the Socialist Party with Stewart Alexander, which was not included in this one.

 

[Politico]

I stand on the right side.

 

[Big Black Dog]

Mitt Romney - 91%
Virgil Goode - 90%
Gary Johnson - 81%
Barack Obama - 65%
California voters - 51%
American voters - 54%

Republican - 89%
Libetarian - 62%
Democrat - 41%
Green - 36%

 

[BluePhantom]

Mitt Romney - 82%
Gary Johnson - 74%
Virgil Goode - 66%
Barack Obama - 62%
Jill Stein - 39%
Rock Anderson - 13% <-- who the f%#$ is he?
Oregon voters - 45%
American voters - 52%

Republican 83%
Libertarian - 57%
Democrat - 56%
Green - 37%

But it's a little fucked up. For example: the question "should we maintain a presence at the United Nations?" Well I would say "yes we should, although I don't really give a damn what they say or think. But we need to at least make a good show of it and maintain appearances before we go off and do whatever the hell we want anyhow." So it scored me as agreeing with Obama who says we should maintain our current level of involvement. Well....that's not exactly what the question asked and no I don't agree with Obama on that. I agree more with Romney whose stated position is listed as "scale back our current involvement". Well "scaling back involvement" is still "maintaining a presence". There were a couple questions like that so....you know....whatever.

But essentially it got you right in that it has you with Mitt... Right?

And... Damn your sig is confusing. The Klingon empire was a feudal society. Who's history was corrupt as hell. You do understand that the majority of republicans are authoritarian right, at least compared to democrats, libertarians, or any other party I can think of. Why in gods name would you see that as a good thing?

In the end yes it got it right. I support Romney and according to this website at least that's precisely who I should be supporting. As for my sig...yeah there's a lot of confusion lately with that because people think I am somehow trying to connect Romney with the Klingon Empire. Not the case. The dots connecting them are just for spacing purposes so the Klingon logo is on the far right side of the signature. That's all. One has nothing to do with the other. Now if I was trying to use Star Trek logos to make a political point I would use the Federation for Romney and for Obama...... definitely the Borg. "We are liberals...you will be assimilated.... resistance is futile" I like it so much I added it to my sig.

I disagree.... But damnit I'll rep you just because you explained it. Thank you.

It was driving me nuts. I mean I disagree with that too, but at least I understand the thinking behind it now.

I find it somewhat interesting how many of us who are mostly
R's or D's seem to be scoring rather high in the LIBERTARIAN ranks, as well.

There clearly ARE some general Libertarian themes that resonate well with many partisans.

I suspect what it shows us is that both Ds and Rs are fearful of the emerging police state

 

[Two Thumbs]

Ran across this internet poll on the issues today. It is more comprehensive in content than most of these on line polls, though the options offered on many questions were not comprehensive enough for me. I did not detect a strong bias in the options offered, however. They provide an option to write your own point of view and I had to do that on several questions which probably affected the polling results for me.

But try it, and if you are so inclined, post your results for this particular week in this campaign.

See which presidential candidate you side with

Gary Johnson Libertarian

on economic, domestic policy, foreign policy, healthcare, science, and environmental issues

88%
Mitt Romney
Mitt Romney Republican

on economic, immigration, domestic policy, social, and environmental issues

78%
Virgil Goode
Virgil Goode Constitution

on economic, healthcare, social, science, and environmental issues

34%
Barack Obama
Barack Obama Democrat

no major issues

45%
Pennsylvania Voters

on domestic policy and healthcare issues.

44%
American Voters

on domestic policy and healthcare issues.

Kinda funny, since I live in PA. On my way to me ex's house, there's a sign;

Obama no job zone.

It's near a coal mine. go figure.

 

[Two Thumbs]

85% Republican

67% Libertarian

59% Democrat

59% Green



Had Johnson at 84% Romney at 81% and believe it or not Obama at 62%

based on my answers, my best pick would be Gary Johnson..

And if I thought he had a chance of winning, I'd vote for him.

But he doesn't.

More to the point, it's kind of generic. Johnson was a 79% pick for me, Obama a 72 and the Weird Mormon Robot was a 62. All of which signifies nothing.

I'm not voting for Obama over Romney because of idealogical issues.

I'm voting for Obama over Romney because I think Obama's a good guy and Romney is a piece of shit.

Oddly enough I scored in the low 60% on both issues with the good folks of PA.

And that happened despite the fact my overall scores was leaning heavily to the left of center.

Perhaps PA isn't the bastion of union-hating gun queers you believe it to be?

I think the reason is that most of us aren't partisan as far as political parties go but rather our deepest convictions form a personal ideology that fits within the definition for modern day American conservative or modern day American liberal. The Libertarians strongly reflect American conservative views in fiscal policy which is the most important concern for most of us who still think these days. So, we vote for the party that shares the most of our personal ideology.

Where the modern American conservative is likely to part company with the Libertarian is in the local concepts of what the social contract should be. The true Libertarian wants to enforce pure Libertarianism at all levels. The modern day American conservative generally wants to allow the local people to form a social contract that reflects their values and what they want in quality of life and your average pure Libertarian might object to any bans or restrictions that might be a part of that.
