Do you consider yourself, liberal or conservative? Republican or Democrat?

Do you wish we had a true third party that would actually have a shot at winning the white house?

    I consider myself an Independent Conservative.

    Third party: If they stood for issues and policy that I agreed with and they actually had a shot, and I wouldn't be throwing my vote away, then yes.

    I consider myself a Classical Liberal. The government that governs least, governs best.

    I would be thrilled if we had a 2nd party. The Democrats and Republicans are pretty much the same party when it comes to the size of the government.

    I'm a libertarian.

    Yes, I wish a 3rd party would get into the presidency, but the 2-party dictatorship we have won't allow it. They try their best to keep the 3rd party candidates off the ballots and out of the debates. The media helps with this. (They are one of the biggest lobby groups in D.C. The policians and the media (and the bankers and the corportations) are all in bed together... but they aren't f*cking each other... they're f*cking US.

    Libertarians, imho, are the best of both worlds. They are socially liberal, but economically conservative.

    FREEDOM.

    LIBERTY.

    Like the Founding Fathers wanted for us.

    I also like the Constitution Party as well. For the same reasons.

    If the "republicrats" would follow the Constitution, we'd be a lot better off.

    Oh goodness... labels get so complicated :) If I had particularly had to place my political self right into a label of a few style... hmm. i might say i might maximum heavily perceive with the libertarian physique of strategies. no longer liberal, yet libertarian. i'm conservative on some themes, greater liberal on others. Over all, i'm professional- Jesus. If He'd have executed it or supported it, I consider it.

    Liberal.

    Neither. Generally like Ds better than Rs, but I like my R governor.

    Yes absolutely, but not holding my breath. Looking at the history of major US parties (Tories, Whigs, etc.) these things take decades to change.

    In general, my political philosophy is that I will vote for who I agree with, and I don't care if they hold up a sign with a donkey or an elephant or some other animal on it.
