Personality & Politics Conservative vs. Liberal

The election of a president once again pushes it's way into the CNN news stream. Our consciousness and short attention span may be something else.

Last year a Sunday school class exposed me to the idea that personality factors such as risk aversion underlies our affinity for a liberal or conservative stance.

I write this in the hope that such information will undermine the ego  trip that I and a lot of folk get on.  I delude myself that my viewpoint will do the best for the most.  That has less to do with it than the factors in my personality that make me up every day.



I shjall undertake to present documentation to support this.
