This is quick and easy. Only six questions and the results are tabulated quickly.
Which political sterotype are you? (click on link to take the "test")
The author says:
"I have voted in every Presidential election since 1984, and in that time have voted for two Democrats, two Republicans, and one third-party candidate. I am already pretty sure how I'll vote in 2004, but only by about 90%.
I voted in the Democratic primary this year, but the candidates I supported lost, and I will probably vote Republican in the general election since I don't like where today's Democratic Party is--class warfare, anti-gun paranoia, and religion and abortion extremists make me ill."
TOPICS: Business/Economy; Constitution/Conservatism; Foreign Affairs; Government; Miscellaneous

Libertarian - You believe that the main use for government is for some people to lord it over others at their expense. You maintain that the government should be as small as possible, and that civil liberties, "victimless crimes", and gun ownership should be basic rights. You probably are OK with capitalism. Your historical role model is Thomas Jefferson.

I didn't like the questions, because they tried to shoehorn complicated concepts into simplistic sentences I couldn't answer any of them.
To me, it was they were asking me to name the tool I would use:
A. Saw
B. Screwdriver
C. Drill
D. Level
. . . without stating for which purpose I will be using the the tool.

Republican - You believe that the free market will take care of most things, but that the government should be there with moderate taxation to provide for national defense and enforcing morality. Your historical role model is Ronald Reagan.

Hmmm ... Libertarian - You believe that the main use for government is for some people to lord it over others at their expense. You maintain that the government should be as small as possible, and that civil liberties, "victimless crimes", and gun ownership should be basic rights. You probably are OK with capitalism.

Guess I'm just patterned after an evil white slave owner ;)
Of course slavery is way too inefficient ... build robots.

Libertarian - but I didn't like some of the answers provided for the questions.

Strange poll. I said education should be privatized. But, I came up with:
Democrat - You believe that there should be a free market which is reigned in by a modest state beaurocracy. You think that capitalism has some good things, but that those it helps should be obliged to help out their fellow man a little. Your historical role model is Franklin Rosevelt.
Okay.

I think you nailed it .
I came out Libertarian.
How can that be I don't smoke dope and I believe in a strong national defense that spreads freedom throughout the world.
If you want to have sex with a goat in your house where I can't see it I don't care but, if you tell me about it I will tell about how God thinks about such things.
I am a Christian conservative.
this test has the makings of somebodys fun college project.Entertaining but rather pointless.

Let me help. You just left out one ">" to close your image code and you didn't need the border code. You can usually catch those if you "preview" before posting. I leave out code all the time!

Though you may not want to admit it, you answered like most libertarians would. And you don't have to smoke dope or want open borders to believe that the government is too involved in our lives. Don't fall for the conventional 'wisdom' about who (small 'l') libertarians are.
The possible answers were limited, but you obviously chose the ones that tended toward smaller government.
I am also a conservative and a Christian with a wide libertarian streak.

You're surprised that you are philosophically a Libertarian? Don't be. Most Republicans actually are. Doesn't mean you are for drug legalization or open borders. Just more freedom, and you tend to trust your fellow man to make good decisions. Try this, the world's smallest political quiz.

I had a hard time with this! Some of the questions had things grouped together I didn't think should be. For instance, should drugs, prostitution and gambling be illegal. I don't consider them in the same catagory at all. I gave up and clicked out of there.
