Well "liberal" isn't a political party. Its an ideal. You may be thinking Libertarian, and that is FAR from liberal in definition. They are probably the exact opposite.

I would assume she meant Libertarian because conservative isn't on there.

I'm a Republican, economically conservative and socially liberal. You know...

EDIT: I changed liberal to Libertarian for you Jewels.

You forgot the option "I do not live in the United States, and therefore do not belong to an AMERICAN political party."

As to what Canadian political party I belong to... well, right now I'd say Progressive Conservatives. Although I'm not sure... I tend to be both liberal and conservative, kind of like a "Liberal Republican" that Bond has mentioned before.

Well, Im a Democrat because they are the "poor mans party." Most republicans (note that I say most) believe in the "trickle down" effect in which tax breaks and money is given to the rich in hopes that it will "trickle down" to the poor.

I say **** that. Most Democrats believe in giving the poorer people money.

You know what I mean...The Democratic Party has been referred to as this. It is almost a nickname, because they have different economic beliefs than Republicans.

Im not going to pretend to know a lot about politics, because I dont know a lot about them, and I dont want to argue with Bond about it because I get the feeling he knows a lot more about this than I do, Im just referring to things Ive heard discussed in my social studies classes and from the news.

I dont seem to agree with liberl ideas very much, so I would say im on the right side (and I mean that in position, and correction : p )...even though there are a lot of conservative democrats.

The worst democrats are the ones from san francisco. Thats why Ill never live there, I hate that city a lot.

I feel America is a land of equal opportunity. It's up to the individual, not the government, to support those who cannot support themselves. There are plenty of options as is in the United States. And yes... I assume this topic is about the United States, not Canada.

Tax percentages should be equal. There shouldn't be any benefits or disadvantages to be super rich. However, I feel that if you work hard for your money ... *takes a break to think of the song* ... then you deserve every penny of it. Then, it's up to you - the individual - to spend it correctly.

My beliefs are pretty idealistic... because I know there are plenty of heartless folk with billions that just want to stockpile the money without having a use for it. But, people like that can be "taken care of".

Yes, vote Rndm_P for president .

I really don't care to chose, one because I'm not very into politcs because my parents were never into and I find it very boring. And two even when I vote the person I choose doesn't always keep my opinions in mind. So I don't really care to do anything with politics.
