Are you an old conservative or a young conservative?
Are you an old liberal or a young liberal?

Is anyone willing to share their age and their political leanings?

You can be vague and say you're in your 40s or your age falls within the number 40 and 55.

old and conservative. I am too tired to work for anyone else at my age, which is why socialism is not appealing to me.

I'm straight up 30 years old. I support personal liberties, small military, a flat tax, and seperation of church and state.

However, that doesn't place me in any one particular political group.

My liberal body has been around the sun 62 times. My liberal soul has been around forever.

40s, liberal. Liberal since political awareness (teens). Conservative parents. Liberal siblings. Flirted with Ayn Rand's writings in my freshman college years, but returned to reality.

40's--I've been at various times both liberal and conservative. Where I fall right now would have to be somewhere in the middle.

I favor abortion rights, gay rights, compassionate assistance for American citizens who truly need it, fiscal conservatism, and the conservation of the constitution. I'm completely against being taxed from the cradle to the grave, bloated government pork barrel projects, unnecessary war (although I support the troops on the ground), unlimited terms of office for the very jackasses on both a national and local level who can't seem to govern by the people and for the people, and finally, government controlled healthcare.

32, independent but left leaning libertarian. "Left" because I believe in government regulation and pragmatic involvement of fiscal policies. "Libertarian" because I believe in keeping government out of personal choices on social issues.

I'm 33 and used to be a die-hard liberal, but have found some of my views move more conservative over the past couple of years..

I hold ALL of the views that Kele has stated on those issues, but I also believe in tough criminal penalties including the Death Penalty.. I also favor Legal Immigration (but am vehemently against Illegal Immigration)..

I also believe in sensibly preserving the enviornment and that it's an INDIVIDUAL's responsibility to do so, not the government's responsibility to enforce it..
