Government Approval survey: Looking for 100 responses

hum

Thanks

did it,thanks

Thanks!

Why is the political spectrum only left to right with those variations?

I would have like to asked a few more questions but my free account was limited to 10, so I had to stick with the basics.

Did it :)

Thanks!

I did it.

Thanks!

heading that way

Thanks.

:-)

I'm in.

Thanks.

I am in not much help though Not really a politic person. Sorry. Thought i would help a friend though. Passing the word around

Thank you Regina. You don't have to know anything about politics to take this survey.

Didn't hurt a bit!
Glad 2 help.

Thank you :)

I just did the survey

Thanks:)

I would like to see the questions before I take the survey. I also would rather participate in a survey anonymously so as not to risk getting follow-up materials, phone calls, emails, etc.

Hi Verie,

This is a survey I made. There will be no follow up stuff and no personal information asked. It does ask for your Gather name but that is it. Only I will have access to the data and all responses will be kept anonymous.

I don't know how to copy the questions over so you can preview them, sorry.

Just completed it!

Thank you James.

done and done

Thanks David

Mission accomplished :)

Thanks Franklin!

The first question is Do you Consider yourself... then choices between "very conservative" to "very liberal." Since I'm neither, that's as far as I got.

I couldn't get past the first question either. Don't take that as a slight Matthew. But I've come to view the labels conservative and liberal as arbitrary and in need of massive amounts of qualifiers to mean anything.

Consider the fact that Jefferson was a liberal during the middle of the 18th century, a radical and then a revolutionary towards the last quarter of that century, a conservative by the beginning of the 19th century and would most certainly be considered a reactionary if he were alive today. And its not so much that Jefferson changed . . . the method of judging conservative v. liberal changed. This is because the terms (as well the even further flanking fringes of reactionary and revolutionary) are tied to the time and place that you live.

It seems to me that political convictions should be made of sterner stuff rather than . . . . committing yourself to a label because you either want to maintain or want to change. Some things should be changed, some things should be maintained and some things should be returned to the way we once did them. Otherwise we are on a never ending march where the liberals of today will be the conservatives of tomorrow and on and on.

I suspect that given half a chance you might feel this way too. So try a couple of the following tests and let me know what you think.

Eric and Shaun,

I was thinking about this as I made the survey. I should not have made that a mandatory question. Sorry:(

I'm not so sure labels "conservative" and "liberal" are doing us much good, and I don't use them as often as I used to.

I did both tests. I liked the first one better since it had 3 options instead of just a yes or no. I scored mostly libertarian with a conservative leaning.

Thanks for stopping by guys:)

Matthew,
How close are you to a result? I see you have about 17 comments here ... but wondered if you had others who had done the survey but didn't comment here (like me, until now) bringing the total up a bit more?

I have not check in a few days. Going to do that now. Thanks for completing the survey.

19 complete responses and 3 incomplete. I will work on getting more responses today:)

WONDERFUL POLL!!! you are like a one man survey machine! awesome!!! where've you been?

Thanks!

I've really fallen behind on comments, had a few days where I did not have much time on the internet. Combine that with computer problems and sickness. However things should be back to normal very soon, but first I have to re-image my pc today. Thanks for asking:)

i was worried about you, just glad you are doing better and your survey looks as professional as the ones I get from survey sites, totally awesome

Re-imaging was successful:)

I've taken so many surveys it was quite easy to make that one. Of course thanks to Poll Daddy for providing the software to make the survey.

Thanks for the complements!

done!

Thanks!
