Liberals are such losers. They really are. Move on and Think Progress fucked Obama with the infamous "shlacking" midterm disaster by sabotaging bluedog Democrats in the south, and now they're doing it again with their support of Sanders. If that commie, and no, he's not a socialist, gets the nom, we deserve Trump.

It's not student led protests when an astro turf, big dollar liberal group is orchestrating it. It's a liberal tea bagger party.

Are you talking liberal groups or liberal people? There is a difference.

I guess I fall on the liberal side of most issues, and I hope you're not calling me a loser.

No, liberal groups and hard left wingers. I'm more liberal leaning, or used to be. I think I'm more of a centrist now as most of my beliefs aren't considered liberal anymore; equality (marriage, women, minorities, gays, etc.), fair wages, fair taxes, free speech, separation of church and state, and so on.

If you are a centrist you should be fine with Kasich, Gary Johnson, and General Election Hilary, the one that will move back to the center.

Love CNN's interview with the "isis" guy that jumped the crowd a few days ago at Trump's rally.

Actually seems like an okay dude, but also an idiot. He could have been severely hurt or killed. He has been planning this since November? So though perhaps book smarts it shows he has been pretty stupid for a while now. I don't like Trump, still fail to see how he is a bigot or racist. Those words are usually thrown around when you have no other argument. Hell if you just listen to him and Bernie they say a lot of similar things.

I'd say Bernie and Trump are more similar to each other than any other candidates. They both advocate socialism and nationalism. Difference is Bernie likes to put the emphasis on the social, while Trump focuses on the national.

Their actual policies though appear very similar. Control the border, protect American jobs, health care for all.

I've taken the test many times down the years, I was actually going to start a thread on this not too long ago. I hope some of the others participate.

I was more left and less authoritarian than I thought. I do consider myself mostly a centrist though, so fairly accurate.

Interesting test, I'm about as libertarian as I expected, but I would've characterized myself as more right-leaning than left:

Someone should take the time to do this for Trump, Cruz, Hillary and Bernie to see where they are on the spectrum based on their published policies.
