191. There is also a perception that Nader and Kucinich are "liberals"
which *I'm* not happy about. I'm not happy with anyone being labeled as the leader of the "left." We are entitled to differ on various issues, that's part of what being liberal (open minded) is about.

My hypothesis is that there is a lot of disagreement about where ANY candidate stands on the political spectrum.

Shall I start a poll to prove my point? Who cares what one labels X candidate? Labels prevent people from discussing ISSUES.

Kerry was labeled as "liberal" by George Bush and co. do you think all of us agree with George Bush on that ... NO.

It's all subjective my friend, which is what your thread proves. Though I personally knew that before you started it.
