Nomad News-Vol.3-No.74

WHERE DO I STAND? Some of you know me personally. Some of you may have heard of me. Some of you may have read something I have written. Some of you may have wondered who I am. Some of you may not like me. That's OK. I probably wouldn't like you either. Then again, maybe I would. Anyway, I'm 95 years old and in my Nomad News blog, I attempt to express my feelings on the way America is going and trust I can make just a little difference somewhere. If we all did just a little bit to restore our country to a Constitutional Republic, we would all gain by it. Anyway, recently I took one of those internet tests on where the person stands politically. Here is my report: My overall breakdown is: Radicalism 14.25, Socialism 12.5, Tenderness, 71.875. (Get that tenderness). The report continues: These scores indicate you are a tender-minded conservative; this is the profile one might associate with a sincere clergyman. It appears that you are trusting of religion, and have a compassionately humanistic attitude toward humanity in general. Your attitudes toward economics appear laissez-faire capitalist, and combined with your social attitudes this creates the picture of someone who would generally be described as right-wing. To round out the picture you appear to be, political preference aside, an idealist with strong opinions. END of report. I would say this is pretty much right-on, although I'm not so sure about that clergyman business. (copyright-Andy Dolan)
