The Political Compass Test

The Political Compass Test is designed to show the limits of the traditional political concept of left and right.

For example, Ghandi and Stalin were both leftists, while Vladimir Putin and Charles Swindoll are both conservatives. Do these labels even work anymore?

The test - developed by a political journalist with a university counselling background, assisted by a professor of social history - consists of a series of questions whose answers can orient you on a two-dimensional axis: Left-Right and Authoritarian-Libertarian.

The test takes less than five minutes to complete, and you might learn something about yourself.

I'll post my results in the comments, but here is a chart of the candidates in the US Presidential Election.
