(14,593 posts)I'm as far to the left as you can go, completely on the left edge, and am about halfway down the lime green into the libertarian.
Funny, I've never thought of myself as being that far left...
And, when we look at Sanders, whom I support, he's farther to the right than I am and right on the line between libertarian and authoritarian. I do think he could go much farther with monetary policy - like revoking the Fed's charter. But that's just me...

(2,188 posts)Cruz is way to the right of Rubio, and he also belongs down, as he has a libertarian swing on some issues like the NSA, NDAA, and spying.

(3,017 posts)This illustrates what I believe, that there is a bigger gap between Bernie and Hillary and mainstream Republicans. If somebody took social issues out and did this chart again to confine it to economic and foreign policy issues, there would be very little gap between Hillary and the Republicans and an enormous gap between Hillary and Bernie.
