There are ten possible choices in this test of your political ideology. Here are the possibilities:</p><p><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Centrist" mce_href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Centrist" target="_blank">Centrist</a>, <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conservatism_in_the_United_States" mce_href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conservatism_in_the_United_States" target="_blank">Conservative</a>, <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modern_liberalism_in_the_United_States" mce_href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modern_liberalism_in_the_United_States" target="_blank">Liberal</a>, <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Libertarian" mce_href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Libertarian" target="_blank">Libertarian</a>, <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Left_libertarian" mce_href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Left_libertarian" target="_blank">Left-libertarian</a>, <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neoconservative" mce_href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neoconservative" target="_blank">Neoconservative</a>, <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paleoconservative" mce_href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paleoconservative" target="_blank"><span class="mceItemHidden"><span class="mceItemHiddenSpellWord">Paleoconservative</span></span></a>, <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paleolibertarian" mce_href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paleolibertarian" target="_blank"><span class="mceItemHidden"><span class="mceItemHiddenSpellWord">Paleo</span>-libertarian</span></a>, <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Far_left" mce_href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Far_left" target="_blank">Radical</a><span class="mceItemHidden">, and Third Way. Each of the ideologies are linked to their <span class="mceItemHiddenSpellWord">wikipedia</span> entry, for clarification purposes.</span></p><p>The test can be found at ( <a href="http://www.selectsmart.com/FREE/displayless/select.php?client=zeron" mce_href="http://www.selectsmart.com/FREE/displayless/select.php?client=zeron" target="_blank"><span class="mceItemHidden"><span class="mceItemHiddenSpellWord">http</span>://<span class="mceItemHiddenSpellWord">www</span>.<span class="mceItemHiddenSpellWord">selectsmart</span>.com/FREE/<span class="mceItemHiddenSpellWord">displayless</span>/select.<span class="mceItemHiddenSpellWord">php</span>?client=<span class="mceItemHiddenSpellWord">zeron</span></span></a> ).</p><p><span class="mceItemHidden">I am going to post my top three matches. My number one match was <span class="mceItemHiddenSpellWord">Paleoconservative</span>, which I expected because I am really enjoying the <span class="mceItemHiddenSpellWord">Paleoconservative</span> authors I have been reading lately. Number two is Libertarian, which I have known I tend to lean towards. Finally was <span class="mceItemHiddenSpellWord">Paleo</span>-libertarian, no doubt this had such a high match because of my previous two political leanings.</span></p><p><span class="mceItemHidden">Also my last three where: Third Way at number 10. Followed by Liberal in the 9 spot and then Centrist at number 8. Feel free to post your results in the comment section, so we can see how far right the Republican of <span class="mceItemHiddenSpellWord">SL</span> tends to lean.</span></p><p>Finally, I am adding a page ( <a target="_blank" href="http://robbrail.wordpress.com/in-their-own-words/" mce_href="http://robbrail.wordpress.com/in-their-own-words/"><span class="mceItemHidden"><span class="mceItemHiddenSpellWord">http</span>://<span class="mceItemHiddenSpellWord">robbrail</span>.wordpress.com/in-their-own-words/</span></a><span class="mceItemHidden"> ) to my blog called In Their Own Words, where you can go and read what the Republican Candidates in the primaries are talking about. I will try to avoid the short political blurbs that tend to make it on TV and instead focus on larger pieces where the candidate has time to express their full opinion. Any suggestions of resources can be added to the comment section.</span></p>Robb Railhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12784063284805774416noreply@blogger.com
