Obviously, an independent. (I'm a registered democrat). You phrased it "more likely to be" -- that no two independents are alike is further evidence of their objectivity. Party members are "more likely" to be biased toward their party and may overlook negatives among their own candidates and policy platforms and ignore positive things that come from the other side.
The people answering republican make be laugh...they are proving my point by answering "republican" , thus showing their bias.
PS Maybe you should provide a definition of "objective" these republicans don't seem to understand the meaning of the word.
PPS Keep those thumbs down coming -- you can't be very "objective" if you are giving this answer a thumbs down.
PPPS Of course independents aren't free of bias, they are just "more likely" to less biased than party members.

Objective? I don't quite understand that there would be objectivity as each one has their own ideology.
The objective of the Republican is to have a fruitful, moral democracy, where everyone has the intitiatives provided to earn a good living through hard work, determination and education. To have all people free with a hand up and not a hand out. Keeping taxes low and providing a smaller government to provide the services necessary. Free enterprise, capitalism, and less dependency on the government. The thoughts are that we must provide for the disabled, elderly and disadvantaged children. To have this country maintain security and a leadership position in the world with the highest of standards.
The Democratic party's ideology is more of a dependency on the government with increased taxes to pay for what people should be able to provide for their own families. Ignore globalization, and have the U.S. be an entity unto itself.
The Independent looks for which party will swing whichever way looks good for him at any given time.

There is hardly any objectivity in politics. There is this misconception that independents and moderates are somehow free from bias, which is untrue. Everyone has a slant, whether towards a particular party, ideology, or to themselves.

There's not a direct relation. I'm tempted to say Independent because you would expect some critical thinking skills of someone calling him or herself Independent but no two Independents are the same.
I stick by there is not a direct relation.

None. Each of them has biases toward their own political convictions.
