1. Count up the answers you had in each column. How many answers came from Column A? How many came from Column B?

2. The more answers you have in Column A, the more you side with the Democratic Party and could be considered on the political "left" (liberal). The more answers you have in Column B, the more you side with the Republican Party and could be considered on the political "right" (conservative). If you have an equal or close to an equal number of each, you'd be in the political "center." Do your results surprise you as far as what party you identify with based on these results? Why or why not?

3. Imagine you register to vote as part of the political party you mostly identified with in this survey. If you were a voter, would you vote only for those candidates representing your political party? Or would you vote for the candidate you think is best, regardless of party? Explain.

4. There are many quizzes like this you can take online to determine where on the political spectrum your beliefs fall. How accurate do you think these quizzes can be? Do you see any problems with them in terms of the accuracy of the results?
