 | | As of 2005 this quiz is being used in 420 schools. | | | The aristocracy sat on the right of the Speaker (traditionally the seat of honor) and the commoners sat on the Left, hence the terms Right-wing politics and Left-wing politics. | | | Tough-minded radicals were more likely to favor easier divorce laws and fewer restrictions on birth control and abortion, while tender-minded radicals were more interested in pacifism and racial equality. |

| | Safe Haven The Political Spectrum Con |
| | This is the political system advocated by the followers of Murray N. Rothbard (For a New Liberty) and Bruce L. Benson (The Enterprise of Law: Justice Without the State). | | | It declares the Constitution to be invalid, and all organized state functions to be immoral. | | | We should, therefore, not be surprised when the citizens of America vote in lockstep for more and more government programs every year, or when our young people usher forth from their educational years ignorant of the great philosophical issues that ignited the American Revolution. |

| | Revolutionary does not equal liberal...the overwhelming majority of his political formulations were not his own at this time in his life and were amalgams of Elijah Muhammad and Marcus Garvey. | | | This is the driving force in black liberal politics. | | | So, again I state, the "conservative vs liberal" garbage is something that Black America can't afford to be caught up in. |

| | Part of the political strategy of some Republicans was to portray the Democratic Party of Truman and Franklin D. Roosevelt as "Red," thereby associating "Liberalism" with "Socialism". | | | The main focus of Marxism politically was in fact opposition to Liberalism. | | | After World War II the Republican Party was struggling for survival and was in the process of reinventing itself. |

| | This mindset has led to a TV spectrum which instead of offering right vs. left, offers right vs. not right. | | | On CNN's Capital Gang, for example, "leftists" Mark Shields and Al Hunt -- the Washington bureau chief of the Wall Street Journal -- take on rightists Robert Novak and Patrick Buchanan. | | | When it comes to political journals, the National Review has long been associated with the Republican right, while publications like The Nation and Mother Jones have long been associated with left Democrats. |

| | Using this form of political gradation, the constitutional republican form of government which our Founding Fathers gave us would lie closer toward the no government end of the spectrum. | | | A more correct political spectrum, and one which I believe in, has total government on the left and zero government on the right. | | | The vast majority of Americans, indeed people all over the world, have been carefully indoctrinated with the idea that the existing political spectrum has Naziism on the right end and Communism on the left end with the doctrine of “democratic socialism” somewhere near the middle. |

| | t r u t h o u t Political Spectrum Language Counterproductive |
| | You know we have a POLITICAL SPECTRUM PROBLEM when Pacifica Radio News describes Supreme Court nominee Sam Alito as a CONSERVATIVE!!!! | | | In the U.S., the currently accepted political spectrum is passe (and probably has been since it was devised, and by whom?, to exclude many avenues of political thought and societal and governmental problem-solving), and is getting in the way. | | | However, because even these longtime Corporatists are stuck on the old political spectrum, they are unaware that we are not just dealing with Corporatism anymore, but that an Elite Cabal (which I'd describe as radical and reactionary* by any standard) is in the mix, passing itself off as Corporatist! |

Bush was forced to acknowledged the absurdity of the song and call for non-English-speaking peoples to learn English -- a call that has absolutely no value whatsoever in light of the president's complete and total abdication on the illegal immigration issue.) |
