Here is a cool quiz I found that plots your spot on the political spectrum: http://www.gotoquiz.com/politics/political-spectrum-quiz.html Unlike others, it takes into account not just your opinion on issues, but also how important you think they are. I think that's also an important aspect of your political beliefs. If you post your results when you are done, that'd be awesome.

Woops, I thought those results would be embeded. Guess not. Here's what I got: I am a far-right moderate social libertarian. Right: 7.87, Libertarian 1.45. My foreign policy score was 5.88, and my culture score was 1.93.

You are a right moderate social authoritarian. Right: 4.75, Authoritarian: 1.15 Kind of odd considering that I want every marxist shot.
Nice quiz, I think I like politicalcompass.org's a little bit better but this was a very good quiz, politicalcompass doesn't have the foreign policy on it.
Center Right Social Libertarian, non-interventionalist, social liberal. Its kinda fun comparing your stats to other people around the world.
No surprise here. Compass: You are a right moderate social libertarian. Right: 3.77, Libertarian: 1.22
Right: 5.73 Libertarian: 6.2 Foreign policy: -0.07 (so barely a noninterventionist) This is one of the better quizzes out there. The questions are mostly related to law. On another quiz, where it asked matters of opinion NOT in relation to law, I came out as an authoritarian right. Flawed poll, because you don't measure someone's political leanings on their personal views. I hope the distinction I'm trying to make here is clear enough. I also thought some of the questions might have been miscalculating. One was "sometimes war is necessary, even if it means a preemptive attack." I agreed, and I certainly do agree that war is sometimes necessary, but sometimes is the key word there. I think k its been over 100 years since we have been involved INA truly *necessary* war.
You are a left moderate social libertarian. Left: 5.84, Libertarian: 2.14 Foreign Policy: -3.41 On the left side are pacifists and anti-war activists. Culture: You scored: -5.41 On the liberal side. Years ago I would have scored much more conservatively. But then I got better educated.
The questions are framed in a particularly non-libertarian philosophy... so a lot of neutrals end up happening based on the wording. It is a good enough quiz though.
My Political Views I am a left social libertarian Left: 7.26, Libertarian: 4.53 My Foreign Policy Views Score: -4.64 (non-interventionist) My Culture War Stance Score: -6.16 (Cultural Liberal)
You are a center-left social moderate. Left: 2.23, Authoritarian: 0.06 My Foreign Policy Views Score: 0.8 (Neo-conservative) My Culture War Stance Score: -1.97 (Cultural liberal) Oh, well what can I say? I'm mostly true to my ideology, but I also have the tiny, ever so slight guilty pleasure of rooting for the bad guy. Just on the rare occasion.
