I don't really know where I belong. I feel the democrats have a lot of good causes. I think gay people should be able to get married, and I think abortions should be legal. But democrats also care about the enviornment a lot don't they? I can't say that I support that too much. I'm not saying I want to cut down all the rainforests, but I think we shouldn't spend too much money on the enviornment when there are more important things. I don't support the war. I think all of our troops should come home. I also believe in individual gain. I want to be rich when I grow up but in 8th grade, I took a politics test and just because I said I would rather have more money for myself then work for the enviornment, It qualified me as a republican! Also, what is up with these democratic candidates for the 08 election? Barrack Obama just said he would pass a bill to send more troops to Pakistan! Four of them are against same-sex marriage! Will a democrat win the election?

Make your decisions based upon the person, not the party.

New York – In his 2 1/2 hour testimony last Wednesday before the grand jury investigating the CIA leak case, TIME White House correspondent Matthew Cooper testified that when he called White House political advisor Karl Rove the week of July 6, 2003, Rove did not reveal Joe Wilson’s wife’s name and did not reveal her covert status to Cooper. But he did say that Wilson’s wife works at the “Agency on WMD.” This was the first time Cooper had ever heard of Wilson’s wife.
KARL ROVE IS A TRAITOR TOO.

Ummm... if a teacher gave that test to you he/she should be fired. They don't have a clue in hell what it means to be a conservative. Second, your what I call most Americans, your in the middle, yet people will try to force you to choose one group or another. I consider myself a conservative because, I believe that the government should be small, and that social services should be as limited as realistically possible. I also believe that gays should be allowed to do whatever they want, get married, adopt, whatever, its a free country. People are basically all in the middle, nobody can agree with all the causes of a party, if they do, they don't think for themselves, they simply do what they are told.

You are confused... I would suggest you watch a little more C-SPAN and attempt to learn what the truth is behind the liberal and conservative movements... Meanwhile; consider yourself an independent (not reform, not Perot), with likes and dislikes on both sides of the fence... It's a hard fence to stay on, but in the long run you'll be glad you did. Remember, vote for the person you believe will serve you best and beholding to the least.
Good Luck!

When will folks wake up and realize the Dem's are pushing the endowment issues to avoid the war issue, health care reform, high foreclosure rate, etc?
Funny was it not Bill Clinton relaxed the emission controls set forth in the Reagan years?

I like certain points that democrats have and others that republicans have. I consider myself independent, because there are things i like about both sides. You don't have to be one or the other. Just be open minded and stick to what you believe in.

Be independent you should never have to be told where you stand politically. You make up your own mind and then the politicians will do what they want to regardless of what you vote for anyway. Three things to watch.- 1)Secrets of the Federal Reserve. 2) Freedom to Facism 3) Zeitgeist movie you make up your own mind and never let anyone tell you what to vote for. Because in the end you really do not have a choice anyway.

You mostly stand to the left of center, but your tendency to put humans first, and rejection of egalitarianism, marks you as a moderate, compared to the typical Green or Democrat.

you are democrat mostly. I am sorry to say the Dems' candidates arent that good compared to the Reps' candidates. I do not forsee a Dem winning the Presidential election.

If worst comes to worst, just vote for yourself.
