If you said Howard Dean or John Kerry I would've been all over it. :P

I just didn't think he could possibly get elected... :shrug:

20. That makes you not as liberal as me. |
|
And if everyone who said that had worked for Kucinich he would have won the primary and general election in a landslide. Self-doubt is the left's own worst enemy.

24. I should have clarified |
|
That for me, participating in the electoral process at all by supporting someone as liberal as Kucinich, is a more realistic compromise. Otherwise, I'm more of an anarcho-syndicalist. Supporting someone as corporate friendly as Dean would be out of the question.

39. I have a bit of an anarchist streak in me, though. |
|
I try to tame it and it mostly stays under control, and it's a TEENY tiny streak, but it's there nevertheless.
Do you have one? Or does being gay give you extra points? Harumph.

14. I feel adamantly for the rights of animals to be treated humanely. |
|
I concur with a lot of what PETA has done to discourage the wearing of fur (I myself used to stick those little panda stickers on the backs of women wearing furs in elevators in NYC), and many of their other causes. Some of their members go overboard, but I agree with the group as a whole.

16. That's a complex subject. |
|
I think that too much time has gone by to recompense all of the people that this country's government and military has harmed. I wouldn't know where to start except to learn from our mistakes and force our government to do better in the future, as impossible as that apparently is lately.

I was a member of some labor union (I forget which) when I worked at Sam Goody music when I was in college, and I was also a member of AGMA and Actor's Equity for many years.
