I support gay marriage, legalization of marijuana, amnesty for illegal immigrants, Global warming curbing effects, death penalty, affirmative action and Universal Healthcare.
I would support it if we imported it from Mexico. I would love nothing more than for Mexico to have something to get their economy going, and I think Pot would help them dramatically.
The best cannabis in North America (including Canada and Mexico) comes from California. If it were legalized, California's economy would soar.
I support Universal Healthcare, Higher Taxes for rich and lower for poor, Heightened gun restrictions, legalization of marijuana, and curbing global warming.
From this list I'd say I'm most against heightening National Security at the expense of civil liberties and most in favor of some form of Universal Healthcare. Interesting that Abortion isn't on your poll and that you worded the poll as you did. Most are with a liberal bent so I'd expect you to say "withdraw from Iraq", "abolish the death penalty", and "for civil liberties over national security"

That's how I voted - I'm for Gay Marriage but against Affirmative Action and Increased Gun Control. I think both the latter are broken and not helping the root problem.
I am not at all surprised that people generally reject Affirmative Action, Amnesty, the War in Iraq, and Gun Restrictions. Those 4 were pretty much given (although I thought amnesty would be at like 20% support).
Universal Health Care - Have to level the international cost per hour labor issue
National Security - If it isn't a priority, you'll regret it
Death Penalty - The only reason it is identified as too expensive is the ridiculous appeals process
