How do you spot a conservative?

Question

Without engaging in any politic talks, what are the signs you should look out for in a person in order to know whether they are politically conservative?(Other than the feeling that the world owes them something)

Note: This is not by any means a taunting question towards conservative republicans.

The statement in parenthesis is merely my *Personal* outlook on conservative people

To: what kind of mind? Thanks for the link.

Answer 1

They will be the one's that use logic to solve a problem. Liberals like to use emotions more, and tell you how it will affect women and children, instead of trying to solve the problem.

Answer 2

Go to the website I have linked below. Click on the states and examine the individual countys. Generally the rural areas are red and the larger cities are in blue. My favorite's here are Modoc County in Calfornia, the reddest county in a blue state, with the lowest income levels (probably lowest I.Q. as well) in the state gave Bush a huge margin of victory (over 70%.)
Sun Valley Idaho, a blue county, and the only blue county in the state, smack dab in the middle of a red state, has the highest income in the state and gave the blue's a likewise huge victory.
Ergo, I look for the country bumpkins to be red and the city slickers to be blue. Think of John Kerry and George Bush. Do you think they fit my profile?

Answer 3

You can't judge a person by their appearance. I dress very casually (sweatshirts and jeans usually) and I'm a conservative. Bumberstickers are usually a good think to look for but some cons won't put bumberstickers on their car for fear that some lib hatemonger will vandalize their car (my radio was stolen because I had a support the troops magnet on my car). So like someone said earlier, don't judge a book by its cover.

Answer 4

I love it. "Other than the world owes them something" What a disengenuous remark for someone who claimes, falsely, that they are not taunting anyone.

The first sign to look for is generosity as it's a proven fact that conservatives are far more generous than liberals.

Answer 6

Wears a suit to work, works in an office.......works in the private sector......

Now, this is something of an overstatement - there are Democrats here at the bank. But - you don't get people who buy into some of the crazy class-warfare stuff or people who think it's "unfair" that the guy who invents a new, life-changing product or the woman who raises the capital to produce it are paid more than the guy who picks up boxes of it and loads them on a truck.

Answer 7

They're not always so easy to spot.

They usually wear conservative clothes. For example, a conservative is not going to be wearing a tie dyed Grateful Dead shirt!

Also, they tend to make blatant the display of the American Flag.

The yellow "Support our Troops" stickers on their cars DO NOT say "Bring Them Home" on the other side.

They are sometimes tacky enough to still have "Vote for Bush" or "W" stickers on their car, oops I mean SUV.... that's another sure-fire sign.

And for some reason, many conservatives are red-necks even though the Republican policies hurt them the most. However, on the other end of the spectrum, there are rich, evil conservatives. Quite opposing in nature, huh??? However necessary for their survival. (Think Karl Marx's theories here...)

However, none of these are ALWAYS true... everybody has the ability to be an individual, however, many Republicans tend to be sheep like and follow the herd. Look for that cause anyone who is too different or stands out or looks like they might think for themselves usually isn't one.

Answer 8

Telltale signs:
Holds a respectable job.(which he attends daily)
Supports his family without looking for government hand-outs.
Attends church/synogogue etc
Gives to charity (with his own money!)
Tends to be better educated, and more open-minded.
Tends to use facts and truthful details when debating, rather than emotional tirades, innuendo and rhyming slogans.
If female, usually far more physically attractive (and better groomed) than their liberal counterpart.
Tends to disapprove of allowing felons, illegals and dead people to vote.
Are rarely seen at rallys targeted at demoralizing our brave troops, reprieving violent murderers, or urging the passage of even MORE lienient laws allowing the further slaughter of unborn children.

Answer 9

your statement in parenthesis makes your question already one of a taunting nature! Yes, this is my answer!

Answer 10

Conservatives and liberals are often hard to tell apart, however I have heard that men are usually conservatives and woman are usually liberals. This probally because(not trying to offend anyone) woman are more thinking in a emotional way why men are more mathmatical thinking.
