I think the key question is the one about defunding public broadcasting. ;-)

If you hit all of the social justice questions the right way and then give some good libertarian answers, then you'll go into the libertarian direction.

I'm really confused about those graphs that show where Hitler and Gandhi are on the spectrum. Were they channeled or something?

INTERNATIONALISM IN PRACTICE

An American soldier in a hospital explained how he was wounded: He said, "I was told that the way to tell a hostile Vietnamese from a friendly Vietnamese was to shout ‘To hell with Ho Chi Minh!’ If he shoots, he’s unfriendly. So I saw this dude and yelled ‘To hell with Ho Chi Minh!’ and he yelled back, ‘To hell with President Johnson!’ We were shaking hands when a truck hit us."
