Now I'd like to see the results of some of the ladies.

Also, has anyone seen the results of this test taken by a group of Non Bikers? I am wondering if the Freedoms we, as riders want & enjoy are what drives the majority of us to fall toward the Libertarian end of the test.

Anyone have an idea?

Dunno 'bout that, I voted for him, but some of the questions' phrasing might have me more to the left than is accurate. (Disagreeing that you HAVE to be religious to be moral, for example, doesn't make me anti-religious.) It's an interesting test, and taken with a grain of salt, it serves its purpose.

It would also be interesting to get the results from a Harley Davidson site and a SportBike site -- just to see if us Thumper Riders are off in our own little world.  I'm actually rather surprised at the results so far.

My results are:

Economic +2.75

Social   +3.08

About what I expected.  Pretty close to Maggie Thatcher's spot on the graph.

If you pay attention to the test, you can actually adjust your answers to get the numbers where you want them.

Hahaha, I find it ironic that most of the people on this site consider themselves Republicans and neo-cons (last poll taken here; McCain won).  However, the chart shows most people in the left libertarian area by Gandhi. I would think most people graphed would be by Margaret Thatcher and Jerry Eichenberger.... Hmm, weird.....I smell a government conspiracy.....

Maybe this is an eye opener for many people not sure where they lay politically.  

Well done, Paladin!
