People would have a hard time telling my politics by the way I dress. I hardly ever wear a tie at work, much less at play. (Though I can do the full Brooks Brothers thing if I have to.)
Some of my snowboarder friends are total hippy libs and it's fun arguing politics with them. They think Noam Chomsky is the best philospher since, like, you know.

Some of my snowboarder friends are total hippy libs and it's fun arguing politics with them. Last weekend, I was arguing with a 22 year-old college student and dedicated democrat. He asked me to name one thing that JFK did that was bad for the country. I replied that JFK sent the first troops to Vietnam.
He bellowed back, "JFK DID NOT SEND TROOPS TO VIETNAM!!!"
He looked at me like I was wearing tinfoil on my head for even suggesting that JFK had anything to do with America's involvement in Vietnam.
At this point, I had an idea of the mindset that I would be arguing with. Arguing with libs is often like this.
Please pardon my off-topic rant.

Surfer here. I have actually run into some Conservative surfers in the water. Actually met a few in the water on 9/11/01, but overall surfers are way liberal and hate GWB.
At Swarthmore College I was know as THE Republican. People expected gays to be locked up in my fraternity basement or something. You could really blow some minds by showing some intelligence and using rational thinking. Of course the Professors were a lost cause.
