This may come as a shocker, but the "real" me is a constitutional monarchist.  Seriously.

Otherwise I'm a conservative, liberal, libertarian with inconsistent views all over the place.
A good monarch is a treasure. A good politician is an oxymoron.

My brain is both uninhibited and uninhabited.

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.

you're a big softie  :zoinks:

I say the Auties start our own party and throw a party  :heisenberg:

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

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

lol :D

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.

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.)

Here everyone entitled to vote will get an invitation to vote. We do not need to register beforehand. With the invitation, and an ID, we then can vote on the set date.
I can do upside down chocolate moo things!

I can't vote in the primaries(where the parties pick the candidates they are running)  in my state because I am registered as an independent.

That is something out of the voting system in my country. Parties have their own elections or other ways of making their list of candidates. People who join a party have a say in that. Some parties are more democratic in their making of the list than others.
