Where you stand on the political compass..

I think it is safe to say there are more people in the Libertarian Left quadrant than the other three combined.
 
I tried very hard to get the most positive possible score. I managed to get a 10.00 on the social scale, but only a 9.25 on the economic scale. I must have put the socialist answer instead of the laissez faire answer for one of the questions; don't know which one. Oh well.
 
Economic 4.13
Social -.51

Wohoo! I'm right next to Ghandi and Nelson Mandela, and almost exactly opposite from George Bush, :D

D'oh!
I'm so thoroughly not a racist that I was sure this statement referred to humanity when it said "our race". I strongly agreed. >.<
Third try, here I come.
 
Okay, I've again moved further to the centre on the right/left scale and further away from the center on the authoritarian/libertarian scale.
I'm now a (-2.13,-6.77).
O.o
 
I finally decide to take the test : Economic -1.50
Social 2.82

I notice a lot of very high negative number here. Doesn't this point to being an extremist?

actually I believe ever race has superior qualities yet also have inferior one too. I'd found many statements hard to reply to.

I believe that too (though I think still the superior can outweigh the inferior or vice versa ... just as Windows XP's superior features compared to Windows ME outweigh Windows XP's inferior features -- like needed extra storage -- versus Windows ME) and also found some statements hard to reply to because sometimes I'd disagree with the premise it was based on or something like that. With that particular question it wasn't clear whether it was saying the race would be superior to ALL other races or just some other races -- and also, as you say, whether it was talking about superior in every important respect.

Exactly, so for the most part they even out.
 
I've become more moderate, recently. I scored near the Dalai Lama:
Economic Left/Right: -4.25
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -6.26
