You and your parents political views

[Admiral Donutz]

Me and my parents for the most part share the same views, we agree on almost all topics except mayeb for a topic or 1-2. SO yes i basically share the same views which is left/sociailist as you might know.

My first (and up to now last election) was for the provincial elections (or was it the national elections after the coalition of Balkenende I did fall?) and i voted PvdA (Partij van de Arbeid = Party of (the) work).

[Truce]

Voted yes. My father and I agree on almost everything, and while my mother doesn't care as much about politics she has quite similar views as well.

[azzeruk]

me and my dad have always had the same views, for him and his friends to rev up their Harley Davidsons and Triumph choppers and take on the government!!!

Actually...I have mostly "liberal" views, and amazingly one conservative one (gun control). I don't consider myself democrat, because I swear that party is being held together by duck tape.

I would vote for libertarian, green, or independant party if they were only more popular.

So... How about voting for them anyway, and helping to make them more popular? You have a tragically comical state of national politics in the US, really...

Because it is a wasted vote, knowing that they will never win. So I vote Democrat because they are closest to the green/libertarians party's ideals.

Me and my father agree with most things...but, if the Irish Civil War was happening today, me and father would be taking up arms against each other!

As for my mother, she claims to have views, but its rare that I hear her speak of them.

In which direction remains subject of debate

[JP(NL)]

My father is a liberal (right wing), my mother is a christian democrat (central), my brother votes for our Labour party (Left wing/central), and I'm a democratic socialist. (left wing)

So the only one I can agree with at times is my brother.

*Note* Do not compare my families' political views with american ones. Even my father would be labeled communist if you were to do so.

How is someone with right wing politics considered to be liberal? Liberal is the term used to describe people with a left wing mind? Liberal Democrats in Britian are left wing, Liberals in America are left wing and from my investigation, any Liberal parties in Netherlands has left wing policies...

Is your left wing ultra left and your right wing is moderate left?
