I tend to be rather Libertarian, and so embrace tendancys:
which respects you as a unique and competent individual.
believe in liberty, enterprise, and personal responsibility. the
responsibility we all share to preserve this p for our children and
grandchildren.
being free and independent is a great way to live. a system which
encourages all people to choose what they want from life; that lets them
live, love, work, play, and dream their own way.
a caring, people-centered approach to politics. each individual is unique.
a system which respects the individual and encourages us to discover the
best within ourselves and develop our full potential.
a logically consistent approach to politics based on the moral principle of
self-ownership. Each individual has the right to control his or her own
body, action, speech, and property. Government's only role is to help
individuals defend themselves from force and fraud.
don't want to push other people around and don't want to be pushed around
myself. Live and let live

ps: I am an Intelectual (tm) that just happens to be rather cerebraly
opaque, or so I imagine.
