I'm more nonpartisan (because thats what it said on my voter ID card when the mid-terms happened last November)

Why do voter ID cards show your political preference? Is that not what you are asked to tell when voting, and not before?



I am an active voter. I will read into what parties have to say in their programs. I want to know what are core points (and less negotiable than non core points). Most of the things I care about are left wing and libertarian.
Here the political choice seems infinite. We have lots of parties to pick from.

BTW, I enjoyed all the jokey answers which avoided a direct answer.

I did my best to answer truthfully.

I am a MOST red-blooded American. I do not hide.

Is "red-blooded American" a political direction? :P

I would have to assume that the dependencies/variables upon which your equationary mathematical queries and/or legal arguments are actually made possible and/or substantiated by some imaginary polar form that I have yet to comprehend, have not yet been defined.
Before we go any farther, please define the use of the word direction. Then, if it is not too much trouble, explain how something as complex as a politic can be reduced to a single direction.

In all honesty, I am not so sure that any so called "political direction"  can be defined as a vector.

I would also have to assume, that to answer your question directly, with no further qualification, the answer would obviously depend upon which direction the blood flows.
Jimi Hendrix: When the power of love overcomes the love of power the world will know peace. 

Ghandi: Live as if you were to die tomorrow. Learn as if you were to live forever.

The end result of life's daily pain and suffering, trials and failures, tears and laughter, readings and listenings is an accumulation of wisdom in its purest form.

There's a term for that, it's called Jingoistic.  :nerdy:

Some people as far as I know of, register a preference they vote for. If its Conservative they vote Conservative. If its Liberal they vote liberal. (we have other options, its just they don't get fully counted because of minority party status.)

That quiz says I am a leftist, but I am firmly an anarchist in what I believe to be true about human nature and the way systems generally tend to work.

Why is the word dirty being associated with leftist?

Have you ever spent time around hippies??  :puke:
Was raised by one.

Then why are you asking the question??   :orly:

Wouldn't we just annoy the other opponents about our special interests, and causes?

Isn't anarchy a very extreme left?

At least we admit to being influenced by special interests. :M

No, it's extreme libertarianism. Extreme left usually takes the form of Communism.

Good point. Though communism seems extreme authoritarian left. Extreme libertarian left then.
