How have your political views changed over time?

[TNF]

I started out as a socially conservative Democrat. Dabbled around with socialism for awhile, then moved onto libertarianism, and finally settled on American Liberalism. I've become more moderate (at least in outward appearance) on social issues, as well as a lot more pragmatic in the general sense of the word. Four years ago I'd never have voted for Hillary Clinton because she voted to go to war with Iraq...admittedly that doesn't even begin to register on my criteria for voting in favor of someone these days.

I've moved right on gun control and affirmative action, as well as on immigration and multiculturalism while I've moved left on every single economic question.
