Esauire's quiz: Left, right, or center? Where do you fall?
 
Would be interested to hear where the Pelicans fall - without sending this to PARF.

American Politics Quiz - Political Beliefs Quiz - Esquire

I am nor republican or democrat and definitely not of the new center. Conservative right.

porsche4life 10-16-2013 03:41 PM

Took the quiz and got MBA Middle, which is in the blue, and about where I would have guessed myself to be...

Dana Norris 10-16-2013 04:00 PM

dam thought I was a moderate, no 100% right wing...

JAR0023 10-16-2013 05:42 PM

I'm among the 14% of Americans that resent government intrusion into my daily life. (from the left or right, I'll add) Given my libertarian tendencies that's probably not too far off the mark. -J

RANDY P 10-16-2013 06:01 PM

What the hell is a "New American Center" Is there an "Old American Center" we should be aware about?

I'm Right Wing- but those are loaded questions, not surprising from NBC..

Shaun @ Tru6 10-16-2013 06:56 PM

Went ahead and did the extra questions. I'm not terribly surprised by the result.

Funny, I don't feel very right wing today.

Isn't Esquire one of those queer publications?

gprsh924 10-16-2013 07:18 PM

MBA Middle. Socially liberal and fiscally conservative. About where I thought I was.

Jim Bremner 10-16-2013 08:11 PM

100% right wing! WOOOHOOOO


There's some things that are grayer on my side than that!

Yes, Dougie, yes it is. Athiest, too.

Are we in PARF yet?

LWJ 10-16-2013 09:43 PM

MBA Middle. Exactly where I thought I was. I have strong opinions on both side of the fence.

Ditto. But some of those questions and answers didn't cover all the bases.

Bill Douglas 10-16-2013 09:57 PM

I'm smack in the middle - and not even an American.

Evans, Marv 10-16-2013 10:22 PM

Where I suspected I was - MBA Middle.

look 171 10-16-2013 11:58 PM

I was in the middle too, although my think is always almost right. What moved me to the left is the religion because I don't have one and the abortion issue pushed me over more due to my pro choice answer.

DonDavis 10-17-2013 12:18 AM

Hmm, really? Figured I was a bit more Left.

Seriously thought id fall a little more towards the center, but what do you expect from NBC. also you need to look which side they placed the agree/disagree, on. Seems like they changed it up based on the question, which can trip you up.

And yeah, they didnt exactly cover all of the bases...

Right wing

afterburn 549 10-17-2013 05:50 AM

They called me a looser Right wing Talking Radio Head !
An other words the poll is canted . they do not like Right of center.
Now what do they call a Full Left Rudder person? Groovy? LOL

72doug2,2S 10-17-2013 05:59 AM

Yeah, I don't get the talk radio head, I listen to the BBC all the time. I guess if you're not a pinko commie socialist, then you're automatically right wing.

Teutonics 10-17-2013 06:15 AM

Interesting from the provided sample that many are pegged far right, some are in the middle, but none are far left. An indication of survey bias?

911SauCy 10-17-2013 06:33 AM

Exactly where I knew I'd be, 14%, right-winger, "talk-radio head"

Will never change :)

Nope, maybe more an indication of what type of person frequents a forum that caters to Porsche owners... There is already bias built in if you are visiting this forum and clicking through and taking the survey.

Jim Richards 10-17-2013 08:04 AM

MBA Middle. Not surprised at all. :)

What a weird poll.

emcon5 10-17-2013 09:10 AM

It says I am a Talk Radio head, which is nonsense. I am fiscally conservative, socially libertarian.

flipper35 10-17-2013 09:15 AM

They all seem to say you are part of the 14% of whatever group.

DaveE 10-17-2013 09:29 AM

No, 10% of us are Bleeding Hearts

Me too. My wife was far left... bleeding heart.

speeder 10-17-2013 09:40 AM

I punched the middle button on most of them, the "whatever" button and wound up a "bleeding heart liberal". What's the opposite? A "sociopathic ass hole"??

BeyGon 10-17-2013 09:52 AM

This may surprise some but I was %100 Talk Radio Head, do the leftists have the same category,

You mean strange or for homosexuals?

I got the 14% that resents govt intrusion into the private sector and private lives. Why do they chop it into 14% sized pieces

That was a pretty tilted survey. Most of my answers were not what accurate representations of what I really think, due to the way the questions and answers were phrased.
