You are, at heart, an optimist. Coupled with a willingness to be decisive, this translates into the belief that you – that we! – can change the world. No problem is too great if we as a country band together to tackle it. This approach can be challenging when the reality of daily concerns take over – you’re a visionary, not a micro-manager after all, and you probably make some poor and hasty decisions as a result. You especially have an open and welcoming attitude towards the rest of the world. Not only are other countries our partners against poverty, disease, and oppression, their peoples are welcome to become a permanent part of our nation. Together, we are unstoppable.

This got me so wrong.

The government, quite frankly, is too big, and you’re happy to trumpet this belief from the rooftops. It spends too much, it regulates too much, it gets embroiled in foreign affairs that it has no business getting involved with, and it constantly passes laws that simply attempt to make itself larger. How many of the country’s problems can simply be attributed to rampant bureaucracy and governmental excess? Downsize Big Government and return control to the people and you’ve got a solid foundation for prosperity and success.

As a spiritual person, you’re very concerned with human rights issues such as poverty and disease. You’re also passionate about issues that concern life and death, such as abortion and the death penalty. You believe both to be wrong; neither is ever justifiable. Environmental and conservation issues are also near and dear to your heart, although you want to balance such green concerns with economic ones. You take the same moderate approach to other hot button issues such as gay marriage, health care, and the regulation of Wall street. Cooler minds will prevail. Having a hot head never helped anyone.

I recognise that the Political Compass is rather flawed, but I got:



Economic: 3.00
Social: 1.03

Despite leaning towards the liberal side of the fence, you favor moderation in most things. You’re deeply concerned about social issues such as welfare, health care, immigration, and environmentalism, but rather than fight to the death for your beliefs, your approach is much more balanced. You recognize that many programs are in need of serious reform, and you try to be the calm voice of reason in the midst of extreme points of view, especially in matters of fiscal responsibility. Although the government has a deep responsibility to take care of its citizens, it can’t spend Spend SPEND itself into the ground to do so. As a side note, you’re also pretty good with a budget.

Here’s your PQ:  19.5

Politicians with similar PQs are:

Newt Gingrich (R-Ga., 1979-94) PQ=11.4
Richard Nixon (R-Calif., 1947-52) PQ=12.5
Lindsay Graham (R-S.C., 1995-2009) PQ=14.9
John McCain (R-Az., 1983-2006, 2009) PQ=15.8
Joe Scarborough (R-Fla., 1995-2000) PQ=16.4
Jack Kemp (R.-N.Y., 1971-86) PQ=20.4

Charlie Stenholm (D-Tex, 1979-2004) PQ=28.5

Scarborough and Kemp are a good fit for me.  The test has a whole is limited, being only on one axis, but still interesting.
