Ideology

Social: Left-wing
Economic: Centrist
Foreign policy: “Realist”
Environment: Liberal. We need to clean up the environment, promote sustainable energy and deal with climate change.

Social Policy:
Abortion: Pro-choice, I guess.
Same Sex Marriage: Strongly support
Drugs: Legalize marijuana, for both recreational and medical purposes. Keep "hard drugs" like cocaine and heroin illegal. Raise the smoking age to 21.
Death Penalty: Support, but it should be used extremely rarely.
Gun control: I support background checks, closing the gun show loophole, and prohibiting firearms to the individuals on the no-fly list.
Affirmative Action: I deeply oppose race-based affirmative action.
Prostitution: Support
Euthanasia: Legalize it
Immigration: I support immigration reform. Most illegal immigrants should be granted amnesty. I strongly oppose deporting illegals and building a wall along the southern border. Immigrants are good for the economy. H1-B visas are also good for the economy.

Economic Issues:
Minimum Wage: Raise it to $12 an hour.
Welfare: I support requiring welfare recipients to work.
Right-to-Work: Lean towards supporting Right-To-Work.
Taxation: I support eliminating the sales tax, cutting income taxes, and maintaining current tax rates for all other forms of taxation. I believe that mild tax cuts help the economy. 
Healthcare: I support Obamacare, but oppose a single-payer system.
Social Security: I support expanding Social Security benefits. We shouldn't cut Social Security or privatize it.
Trade: I strongly support free trade. I support TPP, NAFTA, etc.
Education: We should implement a school voucher program. I support repealing No Child Left Behind. We should increase funding for education.
Balanced Budget Amendment: This is an unrealistic idea.
Tort Reform: Support

Environment:
Climate Change: I believe that climate change is real. We should increase environmental regulations in order to combat climate change.
Green Energy: We should heavily invest in green energy.
Keystone XL Pipeline: Oppose both for environmental and private property reasons.
