Well, this is for some wacky theory that I have that your political alignment has something to do with the ship you support, but, will be interesting to learn anyway.

Well, typically speaking, from what I learned in social studies: Liberals tend to be more forward looking, changing whenever needed. Conservatives are more traditional, needing alot of a reason to change.
Yeah, I am liberal, so is Obama. If I remeber, Ron Paul was more liberal too.

Anarchists!
Comunists! Tarquin Fin-tim-lin-bin-whin-bim-lim-bus-stop-F'tang-F'tang-Olé-Biscuitbarrel of the Official Monster Raving Loony Party
I think I'll put my vote to the Conservatives (for now) considering how much parties seem to be changing. Normally I would be with Labour, but they don't seem to be thinking straight. and that Conservatives have their agenda sorted in comparison. So for now they got my side.

I'm probably the conservative on this entire thread. McCain wiped the floor the other night when Obama refused to answer some of the Questions at the Chruch While McCain answered all of them right off the bat strongly without a doubt in his mind

I felt that people should be able to specify weither they are Democratic or REpublican, despite that dems are generally liberal, and republicans are generally conserfative And on McCain, the cone of silence was not there is being debated.

Oh yeah I saw that on the news even though they only showed one question I can tell Obama wasn't doing very well against Mccain...... the truth is I would be happy with either one of them but I want Obama to win because America really needs to start changing its ways, I just hope we choose right this time and not another W. Bush.....

I don't support either Mcain or Obama; they don't have the highest IQ in the world, so why should they lead the U.S?

Glad you asked.
It's simple really. Have the smartest people in the world (country actually) lead us.
The famous high-IQ organization, MENSA, has people who's intellectual gifts make them the smartest 2% of people in the world. In other words, to join MENSA, you have to be smarter than 98% of the population.
So all we have to do is find American born political savvy MENSA members and see which one is better.

Conservative. Very much so. I live in a rural area, and I attend church.
Either way, I'd never vote for Obama. All he has going for him is charisma. He has no substance to him at all.

Well, you never know. Maybe the MENSA members that are politically active are all elitists. I mean, maybe not, but, you never know. and besides, what if they don't want to be president? What if the reason we don't get MENSA members as presidential candidates is because they are smart enough to recognize the strees, and they feel that $400,000 a year isn't worth it.
