[Vision2020] Political Compass

[Kenneth Marcy]

With regard to left, right, and wherever center might be, there is a web site 
called Political Compass at www.politicalcompass.com that has been studying 
politics and political personalities for some years now, and can, with some 
experience, render information on the contemporary political spectrum.

I am sure this web site has been noted on Vision2020 before, so this is not 
brand new information here. Perhaps this reminder will be useful for some. 
Notably, the reading lists appear to have been updated not so long ago.

The point of mentioning this web site again is merely a reminder that, from at 
least one reputable and independent perspective, the majority of American 
politicians are grouped so close to one another that their minor differences of 
degree pale in comparison to their similarities -- however one views those.

Yes, of course, one can just move the measurement axes rightward and upward to 
place some persons to the left and/or below a new imaginary axes-pair, but 
that only facilitates co-dependency among those who wish to quibble. That is 
neither helpful nor productive.

Issue analysis and comparative solutions review make forward-moving sense.
