Democrats

The biggest strengths in my eyes of the Democrats is their view on abortion. I agree totally with the right that a woman has a choice whether to have an abortion or not. Yes, it is very sad that an innocent unborn baby will have its life cut very short, but I do believe that some people cannot handle a baby and it's life would be a lot worse. I believe that abortions should be rare and adoption is a much better option but I think if worse comes to worse the women should have a decision that she has thought through and wants to make.

Another strength I view of the democrats is their position of gay marriage. Obama doesn't exactly support gay marriage but he does support civil unions. I think they get a whole division of people following them just for their views on this topic.

Some weaknesses for the Democrats are that they seem to push bills that are unfavorable for the public. Also the public seems to be more for cutting taxes but Obama is increasing taxes and spending more to stimulate the economy. Obama is trying more and more to stimulate the economy by spending more which is seeming ineffective which is letting bills that deal with cuts pass more.

My Political Lean

I guess I am a Democrat

Conservative/Progressive score: 7
You are a social moderate. You think the progressive movement is overall well meaning, but sometimes it goes too far. On issues like abortion and affirmative action, you see the negatives of both extremes on the issue. You probably value religion, but at the same time you think it should still stay separate from the government

Overall, you would most likely fit into the category of Democrat

Capitalist Purist/Social Capitalist score: 8
You are a Moderate Capitalist. You support an economy that is by and large a free market, but has public programs to help people who can't help themselves or need a little help. Pretty much you believe in the American economy how it currently is.

Libertarian/Authoritarian score: 5
You're a Moderate. You think that we all have certain inalienable rights that must be protected, but that sometimes laws need to be made to protect the majority's lives or quality of lives. You might think that the 2nd amendment isn't necessary anymore because letting everyone a gun is extremely dangerous to the community. You might also be against illegal drug use or public pornography because of its possible harmful effects to society.

Pacifist/Militarist score: 0
You're a Pacifist. You are angered that the United States thinks it should dominate the world through its military force. You think that the only time war is necessary is when we are in direct danger of being attacked. You also believe the US spends way too much of its money on defense, as we can practically cut it in half and still easily defend ourselves, and use that money to fix all our economic problems.
