Old, Conservative, white guy.
Security when really needed.
USA comes first with me.
Hawk if provoked.
Like you did not know this already.
Meanwhile, for me, left libertarianism.
1. Liberty
2. Internationalism
3. Dove
@ Dodge: I just figured it'd be nice to get our general views on the table.
I apologise to those whose views can't be defined - there's the other/abstain box for you.
And to the views i missed out, there are only ten options. So, sorry.

I voted centre, but my opinions vary and it depends in the context of the subject that is being discussed. For me I believe you sometimes have to give up some of your security to have liberty, and/or you have to give up some liberty to give up security. I am both for nationalism and internationalism depending what we are talking about. I'm against extremes of nationalism however, such as Hitler. I'm probably more of a hawk than a dove.
And here I was trying to keep my views secret.
Thinking people would never guess the answers to those questions. I wonder how many people thought I was a black professor from Connecticut?

You mean you're not?!
Conservative Socialist?
Yeah, sorry about that.
As a point of interest:
Centrism:
*Few or No extreme views
*Economic interventionism on occasion
*Moderation
Conservatism:
*A few dodgy right-wing views
*State Capitalism
*Nationalism

It's the most accurate way to describe me. I'm pro-gun, anti-abortion, supportive of a strong military, pro-war, ect. yet I support worker rule of the workplace, producers as opposed to manipulators controlling the wealth, public ownership of all big business, a social safety net for the less fortunate, ect.
Kind of an odd mix, I know and that hardly does justice to my views, just a quick summery.
As am I.
Maybe what could be said is that you're economically socialist and socially conservative?
Thus the term conservative socialist. Conservative in general (obviously, I'm a Southerner
) but socialist on the subject of economics and the politics that are related to it.A Leftist conservative, who'd of thought?
I don't know why, but that reminded me of what happened the other day. A friend of mine asked me to take a political test for his chart, so i did. His chart was basically finding the position of our mates in town (we live in a really rural area). He's a hardcore socialist - and he was shocked i was that close to him on the left/right scale. I'm sure i'm further left than him, only the test doesn't understand what libertarian socialism is. He was shocked at how libertarian i was. He said "wow, according to this, you must be a complete anarchist". I was like
. Haha.
Are you sure this is correct for centre-right? It describes where I am, but I would call it rather Centre-Libertarian than Centre-Right?
