Always good to occasionally re-check where you stand...This is an easy one to take. Guess what Klam is?

You're willing to sit on the sidelines of American politics, mostly. You're not much of a joiner, whether it means getting involved in a church of in the community, and definitely turn your nose up at getting involved in anything political. We're kind of surprised you took this quiz!

I've taken a number of these over the years, and I usually find the questions posed are drafted so poorly that I don't even bother to look any more.
The last time I took when of these quizzes, the question posed was something like: "Do you believe it is the role of the government to operate social programs to benefit the economically under-privileged?"
Since I believe that it is more the role of state and local government, rather than federal government, to operate such programs, I just gave up and I haven't bothered with these things since.

I'm apolitical. I assume that's default for people who don't fit nicely into a basket.

Rock Solid Republican
But those answers flat out sucked. There were several questions that did not have my true answer.

I should've known it's a crock as soon as they said they use Bayesian techniques. It categorized me as "Apolitical" too. LOL!
Yes, that's why most of my posts on this board are in the "Politics" section.

I should have known when 4 of the 16 questions were about my demographics.

Apolitical
That said, I have a feeling that is the catch-all category for people who check unexpected combinations.... I'm a gun owner and would prefer to live in a rural area, but I'm non-religious and am liberal-ish on immigration.

Apolitical.
I guess.
Maybe it's because I just like being left alone.

Took the quiz 3 times trying to get "free agent". Got "apolitical" every time.
BTW, I loved the second question about immigrants. Talk about a ridiculous false dichotomy.
