Socially, i am a liberal. I believe people can, and should govern themselves.



hate to break it to you, but this is a conservative view!! Liberals want more government... conservatives believe in less government....

think about it...

actually, at it's core - people governing themselves can likely be considered as anarchist... but......


Government is an economic issue. Socially liberal means managment of daily life. for example, I do not believe in regulating what people can and cannot do provided it does not interfere with the core liberties of others. Conservatives generally believe in regulation of daily life like no gay marriage, no sex outside of wedlock, no abortion, etc.

Government should have no other purpose but protecting the core liberties of its nation's citizens in cases where no state can do it fairly and efficently. basically, interstate commerce, national defense, etc. it's a very short list.

This is great. People actually talking. The media is so overwhelmed with issues, and they pick out the ones where people are screaming and behaving badly much of the time. It's nice to know there are plenty of level headed people here, who really care about our country as a whole. Democrat.
