| Pew Research Center Political Typology |
This is an interesting questionnaire which only takes a few minutes. It divides the American public into nine distinct groups, each with their own unique outlook on politics and the issues of the day.
Not surprisingly, I came out a Liberal. According to the Pew definition; "Liberals: Affluent and highly secular. Like Enterprisers, liberals are ideologically consistent –- they take the liberal stance on social issues, foreign policy and the role of government. Nearly four-in-10 cite the Internet as their main source of news.
Ummm - yeah, I resemble that remark.
Liberals represent 17 percent of the American public, and 19 percent of registered voters.
The nine typology groups as defined by Pew are:
Enterprisers
Social Conservatives
Pro-Government Conservatives
Upbeats
Disaffecteds
Conservative Democrats
Disadvantaged Democrats
Liberals
Bystanders
Read the report - it's really interesting. |
