Absolutely. I feel that you have to label yourself before you post so that the reader has a frame of reference sometimes.

I am a Fiscal Liberal and a Social Conservative, with a hint of Nutjob American Freedom thrown in where I want it to.

It would be nice if a party matched my ideologies perfectly. The fact that one does not exist is a statement of character; I refuse to be brainwashed on certain issues to fit in.

We in Canada have 3 parties to choose from (4 in Quebec) and it is not always unheard of to have an independent run as well. They never get elected, but it does add spice during the race. Having 2 choices like the yanks would be even harder, I imagine.

Remember, the Communist party had elections; The state actually sponsored an opponent to run against the Communist block. They got about 300 votes while the Reds got 300 million.

I am looking forward to the day when politics no longer means anything. Is it possible for society to evolve past the "Party Politics" that plague the world?
