If you're a fan of capitalism, why do you vote Republican?

No option for libertarian...

It's cute that this country routinely simplifies complex philosophies into only 2 political views, then wonders why Americans are so divisive as both parties are the polar opposite of eachother.

I'm a constitutional conservative. I take relatively few policy positions but instead ask if x or y policy is consistent with an original understanding of the constitution.

But, which of these would you say most closely describes your political leanings?
I'm center left.

Good thing he wasn’t the President in 1941.

I voted left, but there are some things that are attributed to the left that I don't really go for. Still, it wouldn't be accurate to say that I'm right either fiscally or socially. I think mostly left with a splash of libertarian and a good dose of common sense would describe me.
