Nolan Chart: A political quiz for you all.

We talk and argue and hash it out pretty often, so I think it'd be fun to see where folks fall in a commonly taken test:



Nolan Chart/World's Smallest Political Quiz



So here is the quiz, I took each one and got fairly similar results:

Here is mine:

So what am I if I feel like the government shouldn't restrict speech but I also feel like people who want to say a prayer at a ceremony they should and the people who don't like it can listen to some Kenny G until it is over. If they have the right to not pray why take away others rights to pray?

selection 2 i guess.

Thanks dude, no doubt there is some slant and some shoe-horning to be done.

I mostly supposed it'd be fun to just answer the same questions and see what we all got.

So thanks for taking it.

It's why I took it three times, two times because I was divided over some of the choices, and the 3rd just to mix it up and get a middle point of shorts... some triangulation, if you will.

Maybe that'll do the trick?


Otherwise, do a print screen look up.. I didn't previously know how to accomplish this.
Simple thing it seems... never invested the time to figure out how

this will surprise some one liners...

Your answers suggest that you are a liberal. The yellow star shows generally where you fall within the liberal region of the Nolan Chart.

When I tried to do the print screen thing, my star, evertime I took it, didn't show up in the shot? which is why I did it the way I did.

thanks for participating.

I was not very impressed with the quiz,
I'd have liked it a bit better if it had maybe 40 questions ...narrower in nature.

Oh no doubt man.... the questions were.... well...

But I figured this would be a 'box' to work in.... a common test to gauge for what it's worth.

Lots of definition banter around here... so thought... hey.... lets find a frame work to compare somewhat.

There was actually one that was even shorter believe it or not.

"Shortest political quiz" is what it was under in a search.
