What political persuasion are you?

[lynnf]

what flavor?

I am just curious as to how the Ron Paul supporters in this forum describe themselves politically. Are you conservatives (paleo, neo, traditionalist), libertarians (zero government or minarchist), constitutionalist, liberals or leftists?

I'd say traditionalist conservative, if I understand the term properly. As in meaning old-style conservative - small government, individual freedom,
constitutionalist.

I'm what Michael Badnarik terms a "Liberty-tarian".

I am an indepedent in mind, heart and soul, but a registered Republican.

I consider myself conservative but far, far from today's neocon Republicans, who are fiscally as liberal as anyone has ever been.

I guess lynnf's description fits me: "old-style conservative - small government, individual freedom, constitutionalist."

As a five-year Army vet, I'm as angry as can be at the pro-war chickenhawks who think they are the gatekeepers of patriotism.

Another vote for Jeffersonian Constitutionalist here.

I usually call myself a Liberal Populist or Left-Leaning Libertarian, because I support state and local government regulation of big business for environmental and anti-trust reasons, but still believe a generally free market is the best solution. I also value social justice and ending poverty, but through Ron Paul and Aaron Russo, I've also found out that Income Tax is being levied illegally, by an illegitimate Central Bank, and on a Federal level, when I believe it should be more localized, and perhaps even made voluntary.
