Political Compass. Have I done
it before? Maybe, maybe not. But doing it this time, I'm at
Economic Left/Right: 1.50
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -0.92
According to their list of 2004 presidential candidates, closest
might be David Cobb (socially) or John Kerry (economically).
Hmm, who's David Cobb? The
Green party candidate.
A little too left for me. John Kerry? Really? Career politician?
Reading a little commentary, truth be told, it was slashdot comments,
but flip flopping on issues, namely supposed contradictory voting on issues,
happens, especially when there's swing votes, those senators willing to vote
against a party line, when there's things to be had, or changes that were
made to first edition bills. So looking at his official website, and their
supposed platform? ha. we'll do this, we'll do that, with very little
explanation of how. Crazy. and this is the guy who will probably win.
another comment I read, about how on November 2nd you have the choice
of being shot or being punched. what would you choose? I would choose
neither, and then get shot or punched. But I wouldn't willingly choose
either of them. Makes sense to me now. Crazy. Am I crazy enough to
go Libertarian? Am I? Just maybe. Just maybe.
