    Default What political party are you... Test

    Green - You believe that small economic units should control the goods, and that the government should be permissive of "victimless crimes," respectful of civil liberties and very strict towards big business. You also believe in either a socialist tax structure or more power to local communities. You think that environmental policies should be written into law. Your historical role model is Ralph Nader.

    Note, the code won't post. You have to cut and paste the results and save and upload the picture..

    That's a pretty weak test.

    What you really need is a measure of one's political compass. You can do that here: http://www.digitalronin.f2s.com/poli...aire.pl?page=1

    For more information on the political compass, go here: http://www.politicalcompass.org/

    Idealism is fine, but as it approaches reality, the costs become prohibitive.

    Libertarian - You believe that the main use for government is for some people to lord it over others at their expense. You maintain that the government should be as small as possible, and that civil liberties, "victimless crimes", and gun ownership should be basic rights. You probably are OK with capitalism. Your historical role model is Thomas Jefferson.


    The Libertarian part is absolutely correct, but the "lord it over" is slanted beyond reason. Substitute "government should be kept small and efficient so that a free citizenry can make or break their own fortunes as they see fit."

    First time through it said I was a socialist of all things. I changed one answer to a badly worded question and i became Ronald Reagan. the answers to chose from are all stereotypes rather than real questions. I do not fit the extremeist answers.
    As a factual matter I a
    m Republican with Liberterian tendancies.

    Libertarian slightly to the right of center on CasualObserver's quiz. No big surprises.

    Yup, it's a messed up test alright. Despite my lefty posts, I do believe in free enterprise and the right to own property. I've been to Cuba, so I've seen firsthand the few benefits and many negatives of a communist state. So no, just because I believe in putting tax money towards social services and that everyone in the country has the right to a good education regardless of income, doesn't mean I'm a commie pinko.

    The ghosts of Joe McCarthy and Roy Cohn are apparently alive and well.

    Edit: I was supposed to come up a Communist with my role model being Stalin. Hell no.

    I thought the first test was weak too. That test put me in as a Republican which I am definitely NOT!

    The second test was more accurate. It placed me as a libertarian leftist. Coincidentally on the chart I was placed in the same spot as Gandhi.

    What you really need is a measure of one's political compass. You can do that here:

    For more information on the political compass, go here:

    The more tests that lead to understanding , the better..
    However, the politicalcompass is more about ideology and not what we refer to as a political party.

    Perhaps you should start your own thread on ideology..
    Economic Left/Right: -2.62
    Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -1.08
    Closer to Ghandi... Guess I'm getting old.

    well, that figures. not a single world leader is near me on CO's tests scale.

    my big problem is i sorta believe in facism for a period of time until the scum has been exterminated. upon which time, libertarianism should take precident. questions of these sort are always hard for me to answer. i got 5.21 to the right, 3.44 down(towards anarchy).

    i call my little political party the "libertarian police state". free to do almost anything as you please. but if you fuck it up, then its a slow, painful, public execution. yay!

    Wow, Lilith...we actually agree on one thing.

    I got the same thing...I, too, had a problem with the wording "lord it over"...and agree with Lilith's correction on that statement.

    No, big surprise there. Here's another political quiz that I think is a bit better than the one offered:

    Decently libertarian, and just right of center on CO's test. I've come out just a touch to the left on some other tests like this.

    Socialist - You believe the free market can be beneficial, but that a large and powerful state is necessary to redistribute the wealth of the top classes to those of the bottom. You also think that basic utilities and trasportation should be publicly owned. Your historical role model is Eugene Debs.

    Badly worded questions, but not too far off.

Then, during the third reconciliation of the last of the McKetrick supplicants, they chose a new form for him: that of a giant Slor! Many Shuvs and Zuuls knew what it was to be roasted in the depths of the Slor that day, I can tell you!"

    I like this test:

    Short, sweet and to the point.


    It says I'm a Libertarian:
    Libertarians are self-governors in both personal and economic matters. They believe government's only purpose is to protect people from coercion and violence. They value individual responsibility, and tolerate economic and social diversity.

    Your Personal Self-Government Score is 60%.
    Your Economic Self-Government Score is 100%.
