Default I created a quiz on GoToQuiz.com. Check it out

It is a 15 question political quiz. I know politics are a bit of a taboo, but trust me it is not malicious or slanted in any way. I just wanted a few people to try it out and let me know what you think.

Here's the link

http://www.gotoquiz.com/are_you_cons...or_libertarian


Thanks,
Mike

That was kinda the point. While I am conservative, I believe most Americans are actually Libertarians and they just don't know it. The libertarians are primarily conservative economically (small government), but socially liberal (keep government out of personal affairs). I'm conservative, but I lean libertarian in some areas.

In my opinion there are some flaws with the Libertarian Party platforms, but I believe the majority of Americans agree with most of them.

Thanks for taking the quiz. If you wouldn't mind, please also post what you considered yourself before the quiz, and what the quiz said you were.

I forgot to mention, any other opinions on my quiz would be appreciated. Like I said I know politics can be dicey so I'm not trying to start a debate. I just want to have a good quiz that people believe is valid.

If accurate, confirmed what I knew. Seems I am a Conservative.

I guess this also shows how most of us dont fit into the preconcieved notions of what "conservative, liberal or libertarian" are.
I mean, I generally think of myself as a liberal, but I do have conservative tendencies. Course, I'd vote Republican before I voted Libertarian...

Perception vs reality is kinda what I was aiming for. Also, I understand that sentiment of not wanting to vote for the Libertarian Party. I guess the idea isn't as much about which party you like best, but which one most closely matches your ideals. I agree that the Libertatian Party is flawed. However, identifying oneself as libertarian doesn't necessarily mean you are a party member.

I believe the Republican Party should be conservative but they aren't always. When they fall off the conservative wagon it embarrasses me to call myself a Republican.

Anway...I hope that makes some sense.

Thanks for the response!

Are you conservative, liberal, or libertarian?
Your Result: Conservative

You are Conservative and should probably be voting Republican. You believe in low use-based taxes, free market solutions, free speech is guaranteed by the right to bear arms, and that the pursuit of happiness requires first that you have the right to life. You are socially and economically conservative.
Result Breakdown:
88% Conservative
53% Libertarian
9% Liberal

Found too many of the questions worded to extremes and therefore could not answer them. On the other hand, I already knew I was a centrist/libertarian. Used to love listening to Jesse Ventura when ha was the Gov., man just had good common sense approach to life.
